Link of the Day :: Bible Park USA

Hey, I’ve got a great idea!

Let’s build a Christian amusement park.  It’ll be like Disney, but without all those perverted little animals who refuse to wear pants.

We can call it Bible Park U.S.A.

What’s that?  Someone else already came up with that idea?  Darn…

According to this article plans are already in place

Depictions of Moses standing before a burning bush and Noah’s Ark are envisioned as theme attractions at a “Bible Park U.S.A.” proposed for Rutherford County.

What makes this idea even dumber is that this park is not part of an evangelical outreach

In his presentation, Bar-Tur said the park will show “visual story of the Bible” independent of religion.

So what could you do if you took your family to beautiful Rutherford County Tennessee to visit this BIBLE theme park that exists INDEPENDENT OF RELIGION?  Here’s a bit of what you could look forward to.

Visitors will enter the gates of Jericho leading to Jerusalem. A moat will connect the Dead Sea to the Sea of Galilee. A museum will highlight, “The Bible — the Greatest Adventure.” One anchor ride will allow visitors a simulated helicopter ride over Jerusalem.

“This will be an incredible experience for all ages,” Bar-Tur said.

An Agape Tent will allow visitors to eat authentic Middle Eastern food.

The Old Testament part will feature a Tree of Life with stories told throughout the park. In the Exodus story, developers envision 25-foot high “waves of water” rising at each side with Moses standing in front of a large inferno to represent the burning bush.

Noah’s Ark will have a full-sized ark with a “Two by Two Theater Experience.” Several fun rides will be offered.

The New Testament section will feature the Sight and Sound Theater from Pennsylvania to act out stories from the Bible. Designers propose a stone tablet wall inscribed with the New Testament. Church members may conduct Bible study in the area.

A Dome of the Light will host a museum with the exhibits such as the Dead Sea Scrolls and a recording studio where churches may record CDs to bring back to their church.

“Maybe we’ll have a battle of the choirs,” Bar-Tur said.
