Atheists disrespect Noah's Ark amusement park, calling it 'Genocide and Incest Park'

The Holy Bible's Book of Genesis chapters 6 to 9 tells the story of how God saved the family of Noah, who built the famous Ark, from the Great Flood that wiped out the sinful human race at that time.

In an effort to bring the story of Noah's Ark closer to families, especially young children, the Christian and creationist group Answers in Genesis (AiG) led by Ken Ham invested $150 million on an amusement park in Williamstown, Kentucky that will explain this Bible story in an historically accurate way.

An atheist group called the Tri-State Freethinkers, however, recently chose to disrespect the Christian group and the Holy Bible by calling the amusement park a "Genocide and Incest Park."

In an article on The Huffington Post, Jim Helton, president of the Tri-State Freethinker, even described the story of Noah's Ark as a tale of immorality, and the Ark Encounter amusement park as something that "celebrates a biblical parable of genocide and incest."

"In Genesis Chapters 6-9, the God of the Bible was unhappy with man, so he decided to kill every living thing, except for one family and two of each animal," Helton said.

"We see no other way to look at this other than mass genocide. This is the second time that incest was used to populate the world. We are taught this story as children as a fun story, as a good story, filled with animals and a boat. People rarely take a look at the actual story because when they do, they realise how immoral it is," he continued.

As if these statements were not enough, the atheist group also launched a crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo to be able to put up billboards along roads leading to the Ark Encounter amusement park, where it will be called "Genocide and Incest Park."

The group said this is only part of their counter-protest to celebrate "reason and logic" over "superstition and myths" supposedly to be promoted by the Noah's Ark theme park.

Worse, the atheists also plan to build an actual "Genocide and Incest Park" if the donations they gather reach $150 million. Attractions in the envisioned park would include the "Dead Gods Zoom Flume," a "De-baptism Waterfall" and a "Rainbow Zipline."
