Tax Breaks for a Noah's Ark Theme Park in Kentucky

Now, Kentucky won't only have a Creation Museum, but a Noah's Ark theme park subsidized by the taxpayer. They are indeed exceptional.

Friggin' Hillwilliams.

Easy now, a REAL Hillwilliam wouldn't spend a nickle on something like that.

You must be thinking of rednecks.

"plan to construct a full-size replica of Noah’s ark"

How can someone construct a full sized replica if it never existed and even if it did how would we know what the original was like so that they could be a replica?

You would be amazed at what can be created with fiberglass encapsulated extruded foam.

Is it live, or is it Memorex?

I recalled seeing that years back, t'was easy enough to find with Google. Funny though why does everyone assume Noah would have collected mature animals. Pre puberty ones would have been smaller and easier to handle. Now how he got African Elephants and Giraffe I will leave to you to solve.
