Governor Beshear, will there be dinosaurs on your Ark?

[InternetDarkLord]

"Empire of the Dinosaurs" points out 500,000 species of ark existed. So fit them on a 450 foot boat!

[cowboyrich6]

Dude!!!!! What a stupid question!!! Everyone knows that the dinosaurs died in the flood!!! lmao.

[uniontera]

Noah's ark was dinosaur.

[ShOwStOpp3rr]

even he didnt sound so sure himself,he's thinking "holy cow am i actually promoting this idea,look at everybody in the crowd laughing at me,they must think im stone cold nuts"

look at the guy in the middle,he cant hold his laughter in..

wouldnt a T-rex eat moses while he was on the boat,how do you tame wild meat eating dinosaurs on a boat..yowzers!!

[jablonsky67]

Welcome to Nutburger City! "I'm sure we'll have representative kinds of animals on the ark."

[gary97209]

Will there be a Big Foot.. :)

[torontoraps8]

Scrap This ark. Make a Kentucky Fried Chicken based Theme!!!

[WoodyLittle]

Google "Ark Encounter". The very first result is a website soliciting DONATIONS to build the park! For a privately-owned, profit-making business! They're trying to raise nearly $25 million from the ranks of the faithful!

Add to that the $37 million they'll take from the public coffers and the whole thing starts to look like a scam of BIBLICAL proportions.

Wonder how many non-Christians or atheists will be hired to work those 900 "jobs" Governor Beshear is so proud of?

[MikeUTube9333]

They will also revise the story to state that they really took about 20 of each animal which were running a muck on the arc with the dinosaurs, and which ever animal had at least 2 survives at the end were to be the chosen ones to continue live on earth.

[420whocares420]

lol great question. Excuse me sir, but will there be a Tyrannosaurus Rex on your boat?

[RATIONALMIND001]

Kentucky is a lovely state but full of yokels, hillbillies, creationists and bible bashers. They are proposing building a replica of Noah's Ark 450 feet long and four stories high! With state money! We don't have anything better to do with the money right now? How about, Cheetah conservation on the back of the tax payer by Hal Rogers - Nice! An he is a Republican! Fiscally irresponsible! Fire his ass!

[TheGreaterGood80]

...and will there be lemus, komodo dragons, wombats, kangaroos, raccoons, and all of those other animals that the authors of the Bible knew nothing about(because they lived in far off lands)?

[MustardFright]

I need tylenol. This has given me a headache the size of a brachiosaurus. Yeah, try fitting two of those on the ark, ya jerks.

[jupitercrash07]

@MustardFright if they are babies, then no problem

[dirteyphil]

lmao; i hope someone burns this thing to the ground. they should use that money to build a science facility or museum of some sort (might get something out of it)

[ganados0]

@dirteyphil In ten years time it will be another worthless folly next to the Creation museum. It's all a ploy by corrupt greedy businessmen to make money, Christians know this.

[WellConditioned]

Just another reason to wear my t-shirt that I gladly bought at Rue 21:

Kentucky: 7 million people, 7 last names.

[no1saphead]

So is it true what they say about Kentuckian's,Was Deliverance filmed there.

[deadmantyping2]

Will the brontosaurus's heads and necks stick out through the top of the ark? That would look so cute.

[secure214]

It's amazing that adults in 2010 can be so incredibly ignorant. America really is getting more stupid as the years go by. It's understandable that other countries are becoming scientifically more relevant.

[testing88534]

Wow great question! Now, I would have politely asked "Are you a fucking mentally retarded?"

[jibbi4one]

Will the animals & dinosaus be wearing skirts or pants or both?

[ljarnill]

@jibbi4one depends on the designer.

[sonoki82]

Christians should insist that the ark project be Biblically accurate. It must be constructed by an elderly man and his sons, using tools and materials available in the Iron Age. It should house live animals and a human crew simulating Noah's family. They can be rotated off the ark in 40-day cycles, with no one leaving before the end of the cycle and no extra food or water brought on board. And it should definitely include all kinds of God's creations, including the Ebola virus.

[lowcostvideos]

@sonoki82 I think that's actually more or less the plan.

[ktxlld]

I have it on good information that Ents and Tom Bombadil are NOT on the Ark. Fail.

[abitar65]

The only dinosaurs I see are on the stage. Well one dinosaur and two fossils.

[homerth1555]

Will there be Centaurs too?

[socalvet]

Kentucky = stoopid.

[silentFATAL]

i accidentally all the dinosaurs.

[iburl]

Duh-Duh-Duh-Dinosaurs! Man those dinosaur saddles must have been huge. Funny how there's not much mention of those docile vegetarian Tyrannosaurus Rexes or Velociraptors in the actual bible. What a crock of crap. Kentucky, your state makes us dumbasses in Texas look good. Thank you!

[MrMeatballs1945]

Holy fucking scary religious fucking jackasses!!!

[antonc81]

- "Well.. You know the position of Answers in Genesis"

- "No I'm sorry I don't study the positions of nutty fringe groups, could you please clarify your particular irrational belief"

[smmmokin]

tss tss. Its like the one guy wants to laugh down the building or stuff...tss......ts

[buhughjackman]

What ... an idiot.

[Satan2019]

They should have asked him if he thinks GOD would be offended by our 1st AMENdment and Forcing We the People to pledge allegiance to a Flag and Republic before giving our allegiance to GOD, or in Honor of our Father and Mother, or in remembrance to the one call the Son of GOD. When did GOD give ADAM (Any Damn American Man the Right to say NO or A Congress that says they will make no law respecting an establishment of Religion. Doesnt that include all religious Oaths they sworn on a KJV Bible

[Satan2019]

I think they should show Adam as a Black Man and Eve as White, so everyone will know We All come from the Dark Heavenly Body Waters and Womb of a Female GOD whose both our Father and Mother. Or in other words One Great Big Black Holy Hostess. Although the Bible is True, its still grossly mis understood because its only been taught from the White Male, Racist, Sexist and Chauvanitics Views.

[Liamthegreat2008]

Man, I'm tired of Christians telling me that my book should be interpreted like this. People do not understand the Behemoth/Ziz/Leviathan legend and just say, OH LOOK A DINOSAUR IN THE BIBLE! Learn history, learn theology, learn biology, learn geology, learn theology, they'll all point you to freaking dinosaurs being freaking extinct.

[1noen1]

This violate separation of church and state.

[steveb0503]

@1noen1Do ya think?

I DO NOT understand why there aren't more people who are seriously outraged by this.

[thejrose2]

@steveb0503

your right, try and the town their going to build this in is my town, and our tow going to go from 3000 people hell

[MidnightChimes]

I hope they remember to include blacks and asians on the Ark.

Otherwise, there could be no explanation as to where they came from.

[rustyboater]

but what about the unicorns?

[JennyJenn14]

What's even more funny to me is that the Bible didn't mention dinosaurs at all.

[stainermcbain]

@JennyJenn14

Yes it does. Read Job 40, it talks about the "behemoth". No, it doesn't use the word "dinosaur" because that word wasn't invented until recent times.

[JennyJenn14]

@stainermcbain I don't even know where to begin with my argument against such absurdity and delusion.

[rolexxx11]

@JennyJenn14 I get where you're going and why, but I think we need more information about why this guy has made this pretty extraordinary claim before we call it absurd. Once he tells us that he thinks it was talking about a dinosaur cuz he can't explain what else it could be talking about, then it's absurd :)

[stainermcbain]

@JennyJenn14

With an ad hominem. It's about all your argument has going for you so far.

[thejrose2]

@JennyJenn14

at lease you dont live in the same town that their put this crap in

[superpeople]

@stainermcbain So there WILL be dinosaurs on this ark then? Good.

[captainsplifford]

@stainermcbain Huh, I always thought that the behemoth was a hippo. Because, honestly, if there actually were dinosaurs alive at the same time as people, don't you think there would have been descriptions or drawings of them elsewhere on the planet? Or was there just one really, really old one that was still hanging around just for Job to look at?

[stainermcbain]

@captainsplifford

Hmmm.... have you ever actually read this chapter? Verse 17 says: "Its tail sways like a cedar; the sinews of its thighs are close-knit."

I don't know about you, but when I see a hippo's tail, it looks more like a shoelace than a tree trunk. And actually, there are a number of cave drawings of dinosaurs, but scientists just say that these ones can't be identified, because if they actually were real dinosaurs, this would disprove much of what they believe

[captainsplifford]

@stainermcbain Yes, I have read the whole chapter, and was taught (at my Episcopalian high school) that the "tail" reference was a euphemism for the phallus, which is supported if you are using the Latin Vulgate translation of the Bible. And where are these cave drawings of which you speak? I know all about cave drawings of Mammoths, Aurochs, Horses, etc. but no dinosaurs. Source please?

[ganados0]

@captainsplifford Just google dinosaur cave painting, then google dinosaur cave painting debunked, there are some but only by the new breed of cavemen - creationists.

[TH21JS]

@stainermcbain Wow. You can rationalize absolutely anything, huh?

[rolexxx11]

@stainermcbain But if the word doesn't have any other context, how then do you know it was a dinosaur they were referring to and not something else? Did they have the word "elephant" back then? I'm actually curious and not ridiculing you, I would honestly like to know your thoughts.

[stainermcbain]

@rolexxx11

How can an elephant have a tail that "sways like a cedar"? The chapter also says that it is speaking of the animal that "ranks first among the works of God" which clearly means it is the greatest in some way; i.e. size. The elephant is not the greatest work in any way really. A brachiosaurus sure fits the description a lot better. So you see their is plenty of context to make a good argument..

By the way I'm glad you're civil about this unlike most people.

[lowcostvideos]

@stainermcbain But the people who wrote the bible didn't know there was anything bigger than an elephant :0

[SeparateisntEqual]

@stainermcbain LOL you probably also believe that the earth is flat and only 6000 years old right? LOL

[stainermcbain]

@SeparateisntEqual

Dude, the Bible says the Earth is round, (Isaiah 40:22 mentions "the circle of the earth",) and keep in mind that it said this at a time when those Greek philosophers were saying the world is flat. The Bible also says that the stars cannot be counted, and this was at a time when people believed there was a limited number of stars in the sky, a little over 1000. LOL

[pem82sox]

@stainermcbain Greek philosophers did not think the world was flat...Plato demonstrated the world was round through his studies on eclipses....stop lying

[stainermcbain]

@pem82sox

Actually, I'm not lying. Isaiah was written around the 8th century BC, whereas Pythagoras and the rest didn't come around until the 6th century, and Plato wasn't around until about the 4th century if I'm not mistaken. What I said was that the Greek philosophers of Isaiah's time believed the earth was flat.
