Do you have doubts about Darwin? Does the Big Bang leave you cold? Then
why not pay a visit to Noah's Ark Zoo Farm, the UK's premier
creationist attraction? Not that the place is advertised like that.
Instead, people are tempted by "The Rhinos of Wraxall", a fine example
of alliterative branding in the competitive world of family
attractions.
However, when Anthony and Christina Bush, who had farmed in the north
Somerset village for almost 40 years, launched Noah's Ark in 1999, they
had two aims. The first was to show people where food comes from, the
second to teach creation science. An Oxford-trained mathematician,
Anthony Bush is no fire-and-brimstone evangelist, but he is committed
in his beliefs. In the 1980s he was a founder of the revolutionary Send
A Cow programme, and it was, he says, the long-term study of livestock
that first suggested to him the limits of evolution.

Creationism isn't science at all, no matter how much they want it to be.

From the article:

"Darwinists and Big Bangers, ignore at your peril. In 2005, 100,000
people visited Noah's Ark Zoo Farm."
Good advice, that of course won't be heeded...

Yes, if evolution were true then we would expect humanity to have bred
many different strains of cow, some for meat, some for milk, and even
some for leather!
Oh, wait...
