BLASPHEMY
It's the four websites of the apocolypse! I've always found religion amusing, but an amusement PARK?!?
http://www.cnn.com/2001/TRAVEL/NEWS/01/22/christian.themepark.ap/index.html

I thought the fake New York City and such in Vegas was ridiculous, but this brings a modern light to the word "blasphemy." Oh, but it's not just your old testament fetishists that are into this game, there's a full-fledged Catholic theme park in the works as well:
http://www.marianland.com/marianland.html
"Plans are being made to construct a Catholic theme park in the United States where families can share faith and tour sites representing private and public revelation. MARIANLAND will have replicas of Lourdes, Fatima, Guadalupe, Medjugorje, Knock, the Holy Land, the Vatican, and other significant holy places. MARIANLAND features include: Re-enactment of the life of Christ, the saints, and faith stories from the Old and New Testament. Conference halls spacious enough to hold major Catholic / Marian / Pro-Life Conferences. The park's hotels will accommodate visitors."
Hmm, I wonder if they have an opening for the part of Judas, or perhaps Pontius Pilate?
But wait, there's more! http://www.divine-interventions.com/baby.html
A whole new way of letting Jesus inside you! And brings a modern light to the phrase "holy shit."
And to celebrate the birth of Christ, check out this site if you have fast access: http://www.chrischristmasrodriguez.com/
Watch the quicktime movies, they're goddamn HILARIOUS.
