Creationist: Story of Beowulf is an Eyewitness Account of Humans Interacting with Dinosaurs

Charles Wolford, a reporter for Louisville Magazine, visited Ark Encounter on its opening day this past July, and his article about the experience is now available online. While most of it is about his day at the attraction and some background on Answers in Genesis — not news to anyone who’s been following this site — there’s one conversation Wolford had with AiG’s director of research Andrew Snelling that is just unbelievable, even for Creationists.

Gravity has never been proven, because gravity is a large object attracted to a smaller object, and it’s never been seen. If gravity existed, a BB and a bowling ball should bump into each other. So you see how guys like Newton get caught in their own lies.”

Dude.

The gravitational constant is measured with a device that EXACTLY consists of a small metal ball being attracted to a bowling-ball-sized metal ball.

And some of those people laughing to themselves think the Gospels are eyewitness accounts of a bearded superman who could walk on water and raise the dead.
