redneck Cave Junction, OR	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #1 Dec 3, 2010 Did the ark have termites?
P_Smith Since: Sep 10 1,250 Earth	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #2 Dec 3, 2010 If people thought regular government pork (like "bridges to nowhere") was wasteful and rife with corruption, they haven't seen anything yet. The kickbacks and bribery on this think will surpass anyone's imagination. Corruption comes with the terrorism...I mean territory, of religion. Well, terrorism comes too, but that's beside the point. Here's hoping it goes up in flames just like "touchdown jeezus". .

People in this area have high unemployment.Even if a theme park is a lame idea,we need the jobs.

More: typical with these religious institutions? They violate the constitution prohibition of employment discrimination with respect to religion-- if you don't sign a pledge to follow the quackery of these places, you don't get hired. So, no-- few "jobs" will be created by this sham, and those that are, are not real "jobs" anyway...

If the money were being spent on repair and upgrades of public schools, you'd be calling it waste and socialism. .
Richard Sydney, Australia	Reply » \| Report Abuse \| Judge it! \| #6 Dec 5, 2010 One can but hope they have a flood every 40 minutes and wash the godbots away.

If it was an Atheists theme park with monkey rides,it wouldn't matter to me.

All other theme parks are secular but have chapels or similar references to god. Noahs ark is strickly a xtian bible story and a disclaimer should be made so children know the difference. Atheist theme parks are known as museums.

Disneyland? :ROFL: Careful students of human behavior will note that NO WHERE EVER in the Empire of Disney, is mention made of Jeebus, Teh BuyBull or any of that sh~t. Yet? Disney remains one of the MAJOR FRANCHISES IN THE WORLD-- out-selling many of their more religiously inspired competitors. How ABOUT THAT? :ROFL:

How ABOUT THAT? :ROFL: We need the jobs.I don't want to be racist but a lot of local jobs have been taken or out-sorced.We had a 12 year old loose his fall leaf raking job to a Mexican in his 30's.That's going the limit.
