I am just amazed that I live in a country with enough idiots to support such a place... a frigging mazing.

Bill Maher and his movie crew in the movie Religious take a visit here and talk to the guy that plays Jesus.

Huh? You live in a country that supports gambling, drinking, strip clubs, pornography and where people eat their daily calorie requirements in one meal (or one drink)...and you think a Holy Land Amusement part is idiotic?
Uh huh.

Porters not in vegas, I am.
Im not sure how I feel about this. Parts seem really odd, but the scriptorium actually sounds really cool.

I found the following advertisement on
http://disbeliefnet.com
I thought that depiction of Jesus was copyrighted by LDS Inc?
I recognize it from this typical image in just about every Mormon chapel:

Edit to add: Never mind, it was just similar depiction...

I would never have believed this without the link!
Even then, I would not bet that it is not a Monty Python spoof.
Tell me this is fake.

I lived within a block of this place back in 2000 and I remember when it was under construction. There was a short-lived hoopla about it among the locals until shortly after it opened up. It was pretty stupid, but like Jersey Girl said, there certainly are more things to be worried about.
I remember a friend of mine was trying to get a job there but you can only work there if you get a recommendation from a pastor.
