Hmm, what does the above have to do with "Ken Ham's Opening Day at the Ark"?

Actually Christ never spoke in King James English and so never used the word "eternal" or "everlasting." He used the words "aion" and "aionios" to describe duration of specific events. If He wanted to use a word describing unendingness He would have used "aperantos." And He told His disciples to beware of the teachings of the Pharisees and Sadducees. The Pharisees believed in eternal torment. The Sadducees believed in eternal anhilation. Christ believed in neither. In fact, the resurrected Christ told Paul that "God will have all mankind to be saved for . . . Christ gave Himself a ransom for all (1 Tim.2:4-6). He never used the word "eternal torture."

Now we take you back to our regularly scheduled program . . . Ken Ham's opening Day at the Ark.

How do you know the pens were quite small? Do you have the dimensions?

LOL, that fake Ark looks like a lame Branson Missouri tourist trap. Or a very large dog boarding facility. I also wonder why they didn't just build this thing in Branson with its built in customer base of bored, elderly white people easily separated from their cash. Who in their right mind would waste $40 on something so stupid?

All manure creates methane/ammonia concentrations that are dangerous. Your problem is you actually believe the claptrap served out by a bunch of tales told around campfires by bronzed aged goat herders. Superstitious, ignorant, goat herders.

Critical thinking is not in your repertoire, is it?

If you think it's all just a fairy tale, what are you doing here getting all bothered? I suppose you go to town and tell people how ticked off you are at the Coyote for chasing after that road runner in that cartoon.

Obviously Noah had the system in order for dealing with any gas. He and family and animals did survive the voyage. So he must have had the proper system to deal with it.

Only very intelligent people would pay $40.00 to see the exhibit. Why do you ask?

Or, applying Occam's Razor, the whole story is bunkum.

No, it proves the historic account to be true. The simplicity of it all confounds people.

Now about Ken Ham's ark . . . .

Still, 4000 on day one is OK. It would need to have impressed them to start a word of mouth advertising thing. The metal tubing animal pens don't impress me much.

Oops! ???
It's a public attraction that will bring a lot of people into the area. I'm planning a group bus trip next summer and we'll likely see if we can take in a Reds game while we're there.
