A theme park in the US state of Kentucky has unveiled a 510-foot-long (155 metre-long) wooden replica of Noah's Ark. Opponents of the theme park said it is a violation of separation of church and state. Answers in Genesis estimates that the theme park, which debuted to the public on Thursday, will draw about two million visitors in its first year. Answers in Genesis, the ministry that built the ark, said the ship's dimensions are based on those described in the Bible. Ken Ham, president of Answers in Genesis, said the total cost of the ark is more than $100m (£77m).
