From ThinkProgress: Because the state of Kentucky has no other pressing financial needs. See kids, ya don't need no commie ejamacashion, what you need is a multi-million dollar 500 foot boat that won't and can't float! |

Whenever I visit this forum, my jaw violently crashes to the floor ...Wait a minute, I think I see their game! This must be the start of JESUSLAND! I want to go see this, but I don't want to support them... |

How does a theme park qualify for tax exemption?? It's an educational theme park. Also. Jesusland should include Alberta. |

Whenever Jesusland is inaugurated, I will find some way to fire Alberta into it with a giant cannon. Seriously. I'm ashamed and embarrassed at times to have been born in that province. To the rest of Canada, I'm terribly sorry my birth-province foisted Harper off on the rest of you. There's a reason why I ran like doom as far away west as possible from it as soon as I hit majority. |

Looking at the concept at for this place, I get the feeling that it might end up like Heritage Park USA.

Wait, they're building the Tower of Babel?
...never minding the fail that it didn't exist, have they forgotten/ignored why it was never finished? If they build the tower, is their God-...you know what, fuck. Just...fuck it. If anyone needs me, I'll be in the corner crying.
incidentally, looking through the comments of Think Progress, here's a kicker I found:

"Jesusland", i.e. The Red State-Blue State Dichotomy is a media creation. www.turnoffyourtv.com/commentary/election2004/election2004.html I don't like to split hairs, but the last general election had three Southern states, three Midwestern states and two Western states moved to the "blue" column. Yet, this "map" has been mentally preserved in amber by too many people. However, when I hear the term "Bible Belt", I think religious kitsch and religious themed attractions. The Creation Museum, and associated attractions have made their way into the road side attraction kind of spectacle. The dinosaur and jackalope statues found in (red state) South Dakota's Wall Drug tourist attraction, I'm sure are lacking in Creationist ad copy. |

I guess they see it as a holy symbol, not realizing it was meant to be kind of no-no to God. If that's the case, it's just another case of religious nuts not knowing anything about their own religion. |

They already babble enough, so it creates a nice sort of symmetry with the story. Maybe this time God could smite them with an inability to speak except in reasoned logical statements. |

He might as well strike them mute, then.
Or was that the joke?
