Bob, in all due respect, I don't think ANYONE should even venture to touch that Ark.
What about God's Holiness? Awesomeness? That Ark was soooo important two men lost their lives because they tried to keep it from falling off of a cart being drawn by donkeys.
Glibness, familiarity, calling God "the old Man", etc. is IMHO a very fearful thing to contemplate and do. Of course, I am not saying you fit this category, but even "touching" the Ark would be beyond the pale of my imagination.

God is Holy.
Holy Spirit is Holy.
Jesus is Holy.
The Word is Holy.
The Ark is Holy.
The Americanos have cheapened the awesomeness of this Holy God.

We go to Church, and strike up a conversation with those around us...buzz buzz buzz the many conversations make the sanctuary sound like the bleachers of a ballgame...it is very difficult to concentrate on God...the setting is very irreverent...we drink coffee now in the Sanctuary...preachers preach in casual attire...we sing ditty chorus', throwing out stately hymns...we are so familiar with God, we are buddy buddy...we allow laity to pass out the communion...etc.

In Hebrews we read: "Without holiness, no man will see the Lord..."

GOD IS HOLY!
