Who owns the Rainbow?

Is Ken Ham supporting Pride?

 Ken Ham a bigot of questionable sincerity and sanity, has, with the help of government funds made a model of the mythical ark,  The world flood and ark myth originated as far as we know in the Sumerian mythology recorded in the Epic of Gilgamesh. 

 Ken Ham has lit up his model of the ark with rainbow colored lights, but not in support of the LGBT community, he is using the rainbow to try and promote hate and  discord.

 He has claimed that Christians need to take back the rainbow from the LGBT community because he claims that the christian god owns it!

 Firstly this man is wrong, in that Christians are free to use the rainbow, the LGBT community do not own it any more than any one god does. We do receive royalty's every time someone uses a rainbow or sees one in the sky.

 Secondly the rainbow flag created by Gilbert Baker in 1978 is a symbol uniting all people, of all races and religions in peace and the acceptance of the natural diversity of humanity. The colors of the Rainbow flag represent Sex, Life, Healing, Sunlight, Nature, Magic, Art, Serenity and Spirit, all things Ken Ham is against apparently.

  Lets just have a quick look at some actual facts that disprove Ken Hams outrageous claim that his lone god created and owns the rainbow.

 In Aboriginal mythology the rainbows are giant divine serpents with various names and attributes, there are two of great note here; Ungud is said to be androgynous or transgender while another Rainbow Serpent Angamunggi is transgender. 

 In Armenian mythology the rainbow is the belt worn by Tir a sun god of knowledge.

 In Aztec mythology Xochipilli is associated with rainbows and is the god of homosexuality.

 In Greek mythology Iris is the personification of the rainbow and works as liasion between gods and men.

 In Hindu mythology the rainbow is the actual lightning arrow shooting bow of the god Indra. 

 In Japanese mythology rainbows are used for ancestor spirits to travel the realms.

 In Maori mythology the Moon goddess Hina created the rainbow to allow her mortal husband to return to the mortal world.

 In Navajo mythology rainbows are seen as paths that allow holy spits to travel between the mortal and divine realms.

 In Norse mythology the rainbow bridge connects our mortal world with the realm of the gods.

 In Sumerian mythology the gay Gilgamesh from which the ark story originated, the rainbow sanctioned war and was associated with life and immortality.

 There are of course many other instances of the rainbow used in non-christian mythology. His misrepresentation of the facts show Ken Ham has very little knowledge of religion and probably shouldn't be consulted on spiritual issues.

 

 Obviously Ken Ham is just attacking the LGBT community is a publicity stunt to re-engage with his bigoted homophobic base and to try and bring attention to his failing ark model. 
 The Model has previously been criticised for its dodging of taxes, low attendance, highly questionable claims and discriminatory hiring polices.
