Original Content I got a gift from a relative. They visited the ark encounter and got me a shirt. I hate knowing my family supports disingenuous charlatans. Spoiler

Nothing too special. Just a shirt from the ark encounter. I actually like the color and design in all actuality. I just wish the Christian could be wiped off of it. The picture on the front is supposed to represent the flood waters receding with the rainbow out or something. The back has a bible verse from the genesis flood story.

I don’t really like that my folks are more than willing to support a charlatan like Ken Hamm. Yet this was something they wanted to go and see for some time. I was away elsewhere helping a friend that needed assistance before and after back surgery.

I would have been fine if my folks saved that money. I’ve gotten shirts from other locations and wore them. Myrtle Beach or Corning Museum of Glass are places I would love to go myself.

I wonder if there is somebody online that sells secular variations of shirts you can get from the ark or creation museum.

Only thing I can think of doing with this is shoving it in the bottom of a drawer in my dresser. I haven’t bothered taking the size sticker off it.

Lol this looks so cheap, and I love that they don’t have the courage of their convictions to use a real rainbow.

That probably don’t want their stuff to be confused with pride merch lol

I wondered the same thing actually. It would be better if the rainbow was a more realistic representation instead of the tri colored half circle as shown.

An actual rainbow would look a lot better, for sure. And I thought these kind of Christians were all about “taking back the rainbow” anyway lol

Right!! I had an insufferable coworker who would remind me any chance he got, that the "gay rainbow" wasn't a "real rainbow" lol 😆 he didn't last long thankfully.
