These people know that there are people out there that will buy anything if it's to do with religion, which shows there is still plenty of money to be made from religion. DENS MODEL SHIPS : ARK STORE they will also make them to YOUR OWN design.
I think it's part of 'Keeping the dream alive', but is this only in America? |

If there weren't money to be made from religion, the suckers would spend it on something else, football tickets, perhaps.

Goddidit.
It required a miracle from God to supply the wood, the equipment and the expertise, it then required a miracle from God to gather the animals from across the world, then another miracle to supply the water, which makes me suspect that the whole story of Noah and the flood is nothing but a figment of some ones imagination, otherwise the miracles required makes God look as incapable as the men living then.
But who cares? there's money to be made. |

What happened to all of the other boats in the world?
Surely, people back then weren't so thick that when it started flooding, they boarded their own boats?
As for making a model of an ark, to one's own specifications, would they stick cannons on it?
I'd so paint a Jolly Roger on the side. |

Or cigarettes and alcohol?

Let me get this straight.
Your three-strike formula goes like this: - miracle + miracle + miracle = figment of someone's imagination
Do I have that right?

The Ark was a boat?

Do I have that right? miracle + miracle + miracle = why am I performing so many miracles? what am I doing? am I a God or a man? one miracle should be enough for a God, but no, a fallible man wrote that story because it requires miracle after miracle to get it to come right in the end, a God would do it right with just one. (mine would if I had a God)
We will now be given a list of reasons by AV as to why he thinks his God took the extra long route to accomplish something he could have done in an instant.

That's it AV play with the words so you don't need to face the problem.
I suspect another miracle, God must have sunk all of the boats in the world to ensure complete annihilation.
Out of all the Gods created the Christian God seems to have needed the most miracles, I wonder why that was? |

Like the six in a row in Genesis 1?
I wasn't aware there was a limit placed on how many miracles God was allowed to perform.
