Not actually a school, but certainly stupid. They've been freaking out about it for quite some time at Panda's Thumb.
The "Ark" is a kind of boat-shaped building, with a wooden coat on a base of concrete and steel, because it wouldn't be structurally sound otherwise (and probably isn't, anyway). Of course, all the concrete, steel, construction cranes, and other modern trappings make the "Ark" a convincing demonstration that the story of Noah's Ark can't possibly be true. As does the observation that if you did build a boat that big solely out of wood, it would quickly fall apart on anything except a dead calm sea (not noticeably evident during a major flooding event). Or that there's nowhere on the "Ark" to store the millions of tons of food you'd need. And no way to dispose of the poop all that food would turn into. Etc etc.
And Ken Ham insisted on discrimination in hiring workers to build this abortion of a project, having workers sign a statement of belief before they would be hired. That should make the thing ineligible for the tax breaks he wanted, indisputably. And yet he found a Kentucky judge who was willing to ignore the law and give him the tax breaks. I wonder how big the kickback to the judge was.
