    Andrea Webster’s biblical fun park could rise in Yorkshire if a million Christians answer her prayers

    A BUSINESSWOMAN has launched a £144 million mission to win youthful converts to Christianity by creating Britain’s first biblical theme park.

    The complex would offer visitors the chance to slide down the Tower of Babel before climbing aboard Noah’s Ark, parting the Red Sea and felling Goliath with a laser-guided slingshot.

    Before leaving Ark Alive, billed as the place “where Disney meets the Bible”, children would also have the experience of expulsion from the Garden of Eden, being swallowed by a whale, escaping from a lion’s den and walking on water.

    To fund the development, which is scheduled to open in 2008, she hopes that a million Christians will donate £144 each.

    Americans already have such a park...in Florida, of course. (Aren't we lucky&#33

    Are you ready for The Holy Land Experience?

    It's said that the cross is raised with an electric motor...but no word on if the Roman soldiers use nail-guns.

    Listen to the worm of doubt for it speaks truth.

    Why do I get the feeling that Christian fundamentalism is on the rise in Britain?

    Because it is and they have political power.

    I went to the Christian Voice homepage (Scary stuff btw) but couldn&#39;t find any figures on how large their membership is. I want to know if it&#39;s a genuine growing fundamentalist movement or if it&#39;s just a fringe group with a big mouth.

    I&#39;m quite frankly amazed that British people can even think like this.

    I agree, RL (Malte possibly) could be prosecuted for this?

    Perhaps someone should remove that commentry, as we have past precidents for this...

    Don&#39;t go if you don&#39;t want to.
    I have met neither a religious fanatic nor a hard-core leftist whose arguments did not make me laugh.

    The reason is that their arguments are actually one and the same: &quot;it&#39;ll work because I believe in it, even though all available evidence is to the contrary.&quot;

    Wow. That&#39;s really clever. I&#39;d never thought to do that.

    Moron. If you have something serious to add, then go ahead, but don&#39;t waste time and server space with that garbage.
