[In an article about how Ark Encounter was being "misrepresented."]
Rosenau implied that every sign at the Ark contains scientific errors, but there are plenty of wayfinding signs that are scientifically accurate. That is, the exit signs identify the exits and the restroom signs direct people to the restrooms.

For an "educational" facility, bathroom signs pointing the right way is a fairly low standard, some people might suggest "below minimum", others "way, way below."
You know, if you just don't give a shit about whether your "educational" park has any educational value AND you don't care who knows it, people pointing out that you're intentionally misrepresenting the facts will not phase you. Well done that man.
Exists and restrooms aren't really that scientific.
Besides, if the only sings that don't have errors on them are the wayfinding ones, it's a pretty poor educational facility, isn't it?

"But nope, this was supposed to be a serious counter-argument."
I don't know why you, or anyone else here, are surprised at this. This is coming from people that can point out one single fact in their book and claim that means the whole thing is accurate. Why would they hold signs to any lower standard?
But seriously, this wouldn't look out of place from one of the posters here. They're doing our work now. Is it time to close this site down, folks?
Your 'Ark Encounter' attraction isn't bringing in the crowds - unlike Disneyland/world, Universal City Studios etc - and is therefore financially sinking in a way that James Cameron's "Titanic" didn't.
What's to misrepresent? What's to imply ?
By implication, you're admitting that your own attraction is a piece of shit. In more ways than one...!
Hardy har har!
Eddie Izzard you ain't....you're not even a crappy Jeff Dunham.
However; If you're a person with a brain who's simply spoofing a frummie and therefore on the side of reason....THEN WHY IN THE NAME OF JAR JAR BINKS-PIGGYBACK-RIDING-ON-TOMMY WISEAU IS THIS COMMENT EVEN HERE IN FSTDTs?!!!
Just got back from AIG. The link goes to a review of a newspaper piece by an AIG writer about the ark.
I think the quoted line is supposed to be a sarcastic comment on the (lack of) accuracy in the newspaper article being reviewed and is therefore not fundie.
This piece is very well written. There aren't any blatantly stupid statements, just an unspoken rejection of observable reality and an unspoken acceptance of creationist fantasy, distributed through the whole article, something like a hologram of fundie.
Even funnier, the article is illustrated with the Ark's sculpture of a Placerias. If the ark only took "kinds," which then rapidly evolved into all the species we have today, why waste space on a Dicynodont? The whole taxon went extinct.
Huh, I thought it was the atheists that were supposed to make jokes like this. It almost seems like a parody...
Wait! What if Tim Chaffey is actually a deep cover pro-scientist trying to discredit the Ark Encounter from within?
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
