Wow this guy doesn't know what he is talking about and if he did any research the "unicorn" in question could be a rhino. This guy is obviously an atheist trying to discredit the Bible. Carbon-14 dating proves Creation.
-
I made a video proving that the unicorns discussed in the Bible were real animals that are still alive today. The video is titled “Why Does The Bible Mention Unicorns?”
Barry Lynn needs to get a clue.

I'm a technician. Hopefully soon you will have a camera with an external microphone. If not, a small PA system with the speaker near your camera's internal microphone will improve your audio immensely. Call me if you need help.

I have such a hard time believing that Barry isn't atheist.

@jubileedoo The truth is, the Kentucky state government is contributing $0 to building this attraction. They are in fact choosing to NOT collect a portion of the sales tax generated at the site IF certain goals are met. They do this for non-religious tourism venues as well. To single out a religious organization by not giving them the same treatment is unconstitutional.

@mykelb Most churches, synagogues, etc., have tax exemptions. But they do not charge admission or advertise themselves as amusement parks. (Not sure about Scientology and charging fees.) I think Kentucky is wrong on this, but the Creationists and anti-science people are a strong force in conservative GOP politics. And some of them think that "freedom of religion" means only that everyone is free to go to their fundamentalist church.

@insupportofmyboys Or carbon dating. But there's a lot the fundies can close their eyes and ears to. ;-)
I don't care what any person or group of faith wants to build, just not on my dime. Who are the elected officials who said it's okay to use tax dollars for this project? Let them put together a bond issue like everyone else! Why are tax dollars being used for private AND religious purposes? Perhaps it's already being done elsewhere & we're just now finding out about it. In which case, there will be hell to pay!

The bigfoot reference at the end was epic.
