The Creation Museum will announce details Wednesday afternoon of its planned expansion.
Answers In Genesis, which built and operates the religious-themed attraction, plans to build a full-scale wooden replica of Noah's Ark based on biblical descriptions.
The $24.5 million project will be constructed by the same team that built the Creation Museum.
...
Ken Ham, president and CEO of Answers In Genesis, cites poll data showing that an estimated 63 percent of Americans would visit a full-scale replica of Noah's Ark if one were built in the U.S."We see a full-scale, wooden ark as something so significant that it will shake up this nation," Ham said. "It would be a clear reminder to America about the truths of the Bible. The building of a huge ark is a unique and powerful opportunity to reach millions in our nation (and around the world) with a bold statement: God's word is true."

The new park will be built on land owned by the museum, which presents an account of the origins of the universe and life that matches the book of Genesis.This interpretation of prehistory is generally at odds with scientific consensus, and the museum has attracted criticism from some academic and religious groups.

I wonder who these 65% are. Any one of us?
So they build this big boat and let people get in side. What would be the reaction "gee this is a big boat" might be one of them.
I don't see how building a big boat would either confirm or refute the biblical story of Noah.
