The Genesis-sized replica of Noah's Ark is just the beginning of Ark Encounter, Kentucky's new  biblical theme park managed by the Christian apologist ministry, Answers in Genesis. Troyer Group are the architects behind the ark, with president and chair LeRoy Troyer as the lead architect. I spoke with LeRoy about the challenge of building a project with Biblical construction specs, as well as the inherent controversy of designing something that is meant as a kind of proof of concept for Answers in Genesis' ideology: that  the Bible "is the true history book of the universe".
