Did you know that Romans fought dinosaurs in the Coliseum?

Well, Ken Ham seems to think so...

Ken Ham’s Ark Encounter Will Soon Have a Coliseum Diorama with Romans, Shields… and a Dinosaur

November 29, 2016 by Hemant Mehta 197 Comments

One of the (many, many) problems with a museum dedicated to Creationism is that the exhibits don’t necessarily change. It’s not like they care about new information. So if there is a change, it’s only because the staff created a new way to waft the odor coming from their steaming piles of horseshit.

Ken Ham just announced plans to install a new “coliseum diorama” in Ark Encounter next year… but if you look closely at the Facebook images he posted with that announcement, something stands out.

It’s not the Romans. It’s not their shields. But what the hell is a dinosaur doing in the mix?

I mean if you have a cool looking dinosaur model you probably want to put it in your arena.

Just asking...feel free to Google Kung Fury if you don't recognize where "Laser Raptor" came from.
