    How many churches have built absurdly expensive boats? Is this the same one in Kentucky that's used as a tourist attraction?

      I know Ken Ham and his Answers in Genesis group actually built a giant useless ARK, but now you're telling me other Murican Christian groups have built their own?!?!?

        This looks like the same one, I haven't thought about Ken Ham in like a decade and just remember some dispute with the government because I think he got a huge subsidy to build it and then there just weren't that many people going. https://www.archdaily.com/794940/ark-encounter-leroy-troyer

        I think this is the AiG one at least cause Mike Johnson did do legal work for them, and I know they did have flooding damage lol (technically it was like a road on their property I think, not the replica but still hilarious)

        AFAIK that's the only full scale one in the US as well though
