I'm sorry you got burnt, but appreciate your candor.

I have researched the museum online and it seems they are selling a dandy fairy tale, perhaps they are related to P.T. Barnum?

From what I have read on it's a waste of time if your looking for anything related to Noah and the Ark of the bible . More like a theme park type tourist trap .

Thanks for the comments, all. I've been wanting to go see something inspirational. May just go back to Chicamauga again. Anyone who can't feel the "spirits" in the air there, just ain't payin' attention!

I can't help but wonder if, with all the $$$ they've put into it, they haven't "arranged the message" it sends so as to more nearly mesh with the concepts (and misunderstandings?) of the "average person" these days? We've all seen churches with PC messages and approaches grow like weeds (not an inappropriate comparison, IMHO) while really good, humble and Bible based churches struggle. It's as if everything HAS to be PC for enough folks to accept it and buy into it, to make it profitable. This is the great essential weakness of the "free market." When folks get so coarse and haughty as to demand that everything they experience, be in accord with what they WANT to believe .... well, things go like they'd naturally be expected to go. This is one reason I fear for the country I've come to love and appreciate, back when it was less PC and MUCH more effective at helping us deal with normal life, and reality. (sigh) I pray for my country daily.

This site pretty much informs what this tourist trap is all about.

I was there 3 weeks ago. Some of the things purported I can't agree with.
