American Evangelicals and Israeli Officials Plan to Unveil a $60 Million Park Where Jesus Walked

By ILENE R. PRUSHER

 

JERUSALEM, Nov. 13, 2005 — Officials in Israel say that out of about two million people who will realize their dream of visiting the Holy Land this year, more than half will be Christian. And among those, more than half will be evangelical.

 

With that in mind, the Israeli ministry of tourism has gone public with a plan to build — in partnership primarily with American evangelical churches — a sprawling Holy Land Christian Center on the northern shores of the Sea of Galilee, home to some of the most notable chapters in Jesus' ministry.

So how long into the building of it will someone claim to have found Jesus' shoes on one of the paths that he hiked?

It depends on how it's done. The name 'theme park' puts a lot of inappropriate images in my head, (insert jokes here) but I hope it will be done right.

wow... in a surprising move to hammer in the last nail in the casket of cultural relevance between the church and the rest of the world...

 

Jesusland is becoming a reality.

 

 

I hate Christians
