A wholesome family-vacation at the "Genocide & Incest Park"

http://www.rawstory.com/2016/03/atheist-group-plans-genocide-and-incest-park-billboard-campaign-to-troll-creationist-ark/

According to columnist and author Dan Arel, the Tri-State Freethinkers are seeking to raise $2,000 in order to erect billboards calling the facility “Genocide and Incest Park.”

“The park celebrates a biblical parable of genocide and incest,” the group says on its Indiegogo page. “While they have a legal right to celebrate their mythology, we find it immoral and highly inappropriate as family entertainment.”

...

According to the Freethinkers, the first $2,000 raised would go toward setting up one small billboard on a state route for one month. For $6,000, they will erect six small billboards or a larger one along an interstate. And if they should raise $150 million, they said, “we will build our very own Genocide & Incest Park and ask for state tax incentives and we will not discriminate during hire.”

Christians who believe in that story at least have the "well, there were other people" defense to fall back on, there is no getting around the fact that if the flood story is true, then Noah's grandkids all got it on with each other. Or we wouldn't be here.

Hell, the last lousy shoot 'em up dystopia scifi film that failed at the box office cost twice as much!


Maybe Hillary could give it to them since she's already won and the Bible is her favorite book!
