Creationist Ken Ham builds $100 million Noah's Ark replica

Located in Kentucky, the project is 510' long and was funded mostly by donations, tax incentives and junk bonds.

But really though, $100 million dollars??? :?

My problem with this exhibit is that Ken Ham has the typical--and misleading--Judeo-Christian interpretation of why there was a flood in the first place--and why Noah and his family were spared. From another New York Times article:

"The ark is also intended to serve as a vivid warning that, according to the Bible, God sent a flood in Noah’s time to wipe out a depraved people, and God will deliver a fiery end to those who reject the Bible and accept modern-day evils like abortion, atheism and same-sex marriage. “We’re becoming more like the days of Noah in that we see increasing secularization in the culture,” Mr. Ham said."

No mention of race mixing as the reason for the flood and the preservation Noah's bloodline. In fact, it's just the opposite--Ken Ham has portraits of Noah and his family that suggest they were multi-racial:

"Drawings of Noah and his seven family members hung on a wall. Their skin is 'middle brown' and their faces are a blend of racial features because, as the only survivors of the biblical flood, all the races and ethnicities on earth would have descended from these eight people."

Maybe Ham will try to fit two of every race in his ark.

It was a long time ago, but seen an artist's/author's rendering in a book of what Noah's Ark looked like.

Supposedly it was not the typical drawing/painting we usually see, but was more of a square shape and the size of a city block ?

And the look upon their faces, at the response
of our Father, when they claim to have done these
marvelous works in HIS name? Well, priceless....
(100 million and Jabba the Hutt Haggee still
cannot squeeze his lard ass thru the door...)

Yes, this is right in our back yard. We found out that not only Ken Ham is married to a non-White, but the hierarchy of his corporation are likewise found guilty of miscegenation. Their whole shtick is to justify their sins. They are not a church, but a for profit business. A disgusting bunch of heretics who started out with an equally odious multi-million dollar "Creation Museum" that teaches that all the other races evolved from Adam and Eve. Pastor Elmore's article is one of our most popular.

And one can easily see why. Pastor Elmore's article is a closely-reasoned argument on several fronts. It is something that those new to C.I. (as we all have been) would wish to not just look at but to digest, which can only be done by study, even prolonged study over time. Material such as this article, others at FGCP, KR, Christogenea, Clifton Emahiser etc cannot be fully accepted without such study. Also a hunger and thirst for righteousness and a desire for our Father's promised guidance to His children.
This is not like watching a YT vdo, or dependent on "feelings".
That Pastor Elmore's material (and similar) is popular is a sign that God is fulfilling His promises among His children; those having the Law written in their heart appear increasingly to be turning from shallow vanity, deceit and the like and entering by the straight gate.

It looks like the Ark is just the beginning for Ken Ham--his next project is to erect a monument against racism: a replica of the Tower Of Babel:

"Ham also plans to build a replica of the Tower of Babel in the next few years to speak against prejudice and racism, as well as an ancient walled city like those mentioned in the Bible."

Perhaps someone should remind this "biblical scholar" that Babylon's greatest sin was the idolatry of race mixing...

What a self-hating Judeo-tard.

May God smite it down as He did the last.
