I'm watching "60 Minutes" recorded yesterday...(stupid ad alert)

Just saw a really stupid TV ad on it.

Two giraffes are talking about a visit to the "Ark Encounter" creationist tourist trap in Kentucky.

One says to the other, "Straight from history!"
BULL-SHIT!

So the ark had animals from all over the world. What about plants and trees? They would die under salt water. Since the oceans were overflowing. Also just how did all the animals from Australia, the Americas, and islands get there and back? Was there an ancient water Uber back then? Don’t forget the people who somehow sprung up from nowhere all over the world. Sometimes stupid is just too stupid. But it can be a money maker.
