As another Kentuckian, let me say "ditto". Actually, Canada is looking better and better each day.
Are you around the Louisville area?

HA! Try living in Texas!
Any state can build a creationist theme park, we produced George Bush!
Top THAT!
(Well, Alaska did produce Palin, they may have one-up on us.)
I used to tell a lot of religious jokes. Not any more, I'm a registered sects offender.

No, not any state can build a creationist theme park. In some states the majority has evolved somewhat.

Please, don't keep it a secret. To which states do you refer?

With the Creation Museum down the road it can be a sort of Grand Tour of Stupid.

A Creationist Theme Park?
Come on, kids! Let's go ride the Noah's Ark flume!
Let's check out Satan's House of Eternal Torture!
Who wants to ride The Ten Commandments Carousel?
The brochure says that Jesus gets crucified on the promenade at 3:00! We can't miss it!
Time for lunch! Let's eat at The Garden of Eden buffet!
They have an attraction where kids get to ride in the mouth of a fiberglass whale!
Let's go in the House of Plagues!
I want to go on the Morality Roller Coaster!
Look! Throw baseballs at Satan and win a prize! I want the huge stuffed angel!
I want to ride the Moses Defender of God Spin! Your car has a built-in slingshot that fires a laser beam at Egyptian soldiers!
Yeah, sounds like fun...
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.
God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?
