This Is Not A Joke

In 2012, Germany will be the home to a bible-themed theme park.
The biblical Disneyland will group some 40 attractions over an area the size of 70 football fields encompassing all areas of the Christian story, according to reports.
The centerpiece will be an "original size" Noah's Ark, which is 490 feet long and surrounded by water.
Glad God was able to channel down the exact dimension's of Noah's Ark to the park's architects!
Other attractions will include two roller coasters — one giving an idea of the Great Flood and another on the theme of heaven and hell — a miniature version of Biblical-era Israel and a Roman amphitheater.
It's all sounds so Old Testament.
In the New Testament section they should totally have a ride called "What Would Jesus Do?"!
is that bad?? or something?? I mean there is a theme park to everything else these days….hey people believe in other things other than what you might Perez..get over it
Re: duh – I know; he's so dumb.
Fucking disgusting! Belief in god is schizophrenic mental illness by choice and should be punished, outlawed, and eliminated.
ewww the bible makes me gag and the thought of the people who will go and hang out there is even worse.
Read the bible, dumbo. The dimensions for the ark are there… but they're in cubits.
Genesis 6:15 And this [is the fashion] which thou shalt make it [of]: The length of the ark [shall be] three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.
Perez you are an idiot.
actually perez, the general dimensions of the ark ARE in the bible…. duh.
wow…i'm so happy to see that so many realize that the dimensions are given in the Bible! and I agree with some of the others on here that your remarks make you appear very ignorant!
Re: texasc – Now thats a name for a ride. The "Holy Rollers Coaster"
ARE THEY GOING TO PASS OUT DRUGS TOO? THE GRAND GUIGNOL FOR THE DELUSIONAL! HA HA HA!
Re: Brahma – ok…come arrest me then
The original ark was 490 cubits
The Swiss will Bern in Hell.
seems sacrilegious
WHERE is the one in Florida??
I love the idea, and, yes, the dimensions for the ark are written in Genesis, Mr. Catholica. xo
They stole that idea from Ned Flanders!
um….yeah, Jim Bakker and Tammy Faye already did that. In the 70s. And it went bankrupt.
Everyone needs to read the Bible, even if you don't beleive in God. Especially the Psalms, Proverbs and 4 Gosphels. There is a wealth of wisdom there that can be applied to all faiths and cultures.
But ORLANDO FLORIDA already has HOLY LAND a Christian and bible themed attraction.
Germany must just be trying to one up them. ha.
LAME!
and what will they be doing in the Roman amphitheatre? Persecuting Christians? Maybe they can take some volunteers from the audience? heheheh. I think my fav.part of the park will be the Wedding of CanaWine Bar where the wine never runs out! The Walk on Water Park should be interesting. I can't wait!
You can actually get the 'dimensions' of the arc from the Bible, maybe if you read it you would know that. The measurements are obviously not like the ones we use today.
haha!! id go christian for this! hahahaha love the new testiment idea!
umm there's a holy land theme park in buenos aires, argentina called tierra santa. it features an 80 foot jesus resurrect every half hour. it's kind of crazy. there are no rides, just shows that tell the different stories from the bible. and you can drink there, so you can imagine the excitement of being drunk in the holy land. kind of amazing!
There was a chirstian themed theme park way back when in waterbury ct, called "holyland usa", now defunct, but there are some interesting reads on the internet about it.
The dimensions of the ark are in the Bible. And why are you so open to EVERYTHING no earth except christians?
well, I _am_ German, and believe me, Germans are not very likely to be crazed a bout a biblical theme park.
Perez, if you actually read the bible, the actual size and dimensions are in it, given to Noah.
this was so an episode of the simpsons………
Tina would approve.
Why the slanted write up? What if it were a gay or Muslim based theme park? Would your comments ooze sarcasm bordering on ridicule?
technically, the dimensions of the ark are in the bible, so god wouldn't have to send them down again
I can't wait! I hope there's a stoning gallery and a Tammy Faye fun house!
Perez you are funny and all but don't make fun of g-d…he is watching and "reading" at all times
The exact dimensions of the ark are listed in the bible…
"Glad God was able to channel down the exact dimension's of Noah's Ark to the park's architects!"
Sarcasm Perez? It says in the bible how big it was. Genesis 6:15 in the Bible tells us the Ark's dimensions were at least 135 meters long (300 cubits), 22.5 meters wide (50 cubits), and 13.5 meters high (30 cubits). That's 450 feet long, 75 feet wide, and 45 feet high.
Hey Perez, if you read the Bible, you would know that the exact dimensions of the ark are in there already! Try reading Leviticus while you are at it.
Why don't you ever check facts out before you make stupid statements…. the dimensions for Noah's ark are in the Bible!! Any child in Sunday School could tell you that!!!!
Plus, this isn't anything new…. Florida has one. Sigh, slow news day??
Like others have said, there is already "The Holy Land Experience" in Orlando and it's been there for years. It's not as big though but this isn't a new idea.
They're building one in Murfreesboro, Tennessee too.
Hey, dumbass. Maybe if you read the bible you'd know the Ark's dimensions are in there. As is many topics about God hating homosexuality. So it is obvious you have never picked up THE BOOK and read it. Moron. Rot.
The Simpsons already did it
That's totally exploiting the bible!
But i would still probably go…
In the old testament where it is talking about noah building the ark there are precise measurements listed. That is where they are getting the measurements
some many people need to realize that religion is based on interpretation of the bible and NOT FACTS! get real people. seirously!
It didn't work in that one episode of The Simpsons and it won't work now! Learn from our Flanders failures people…
Orlando already has a bible themed theme park and it's called the Holy Land experience…Its located a few miles from Universal Studios.
Will they have a ride called "jews the chosen people why did we kill them?
Orlando, FL has a Holy Land theme park…It's a really small tacky park though…
Oh boy. However I bet you some parts in the South would love this also, like the proposed PTL/Baker resort. Is that liquor law still happening there on Sundays in the South? lolololol
How dare anyone tell ME what to drink on a Sunday. ROFL
How and where did you hear that?? I am German and I have never heard of plans like that before!! It has got to be a joke, because the park would be an economical wreckage right from the start. Germany has become totally atheistic, the estimated number of committed christians is like 4%. Not enought to pay the staff (Noah and King David).
Wow I so want to see this!!!!!!!!!!!! Sounds neat!
ummmm perez…the dimensions of the ark are actually written in the Bible lol.
The Roman amphitheater would have been New Testament, Perez.
Isn't it ironic that it's in Germany when 50% of the population is atheist?
I would have expected a park like that here.
Actually they do know the dimensions of Noah's ark. It's in Genesis. And who cares if they are building the theme park. People will enjoy it, and if you don't want to go, don't go.
Perez- sometimes you really do come off as ignorant! The dimensions for the ark are in the Bible. You know that thing that anyone can open up and read! I think they are still in every hotel room and it is the most printed book ever. Guess it is not the most read. Too bad.
What wouldn't Jesus do
Actually, God did leave exact instructions on the size and dimension. Its in the Bible.
the EXACT dimensions are in the bible.
The original and accurate dimensions of the Ark are located in the Bible. Maybe you would know that if you did a little research.
this isn't thaaat crazy… there is a bible theme park in Buenos Aires - "Tierra Santa" that has a giant Jesus statue that is ressurected every half hour (haha).
When are the religious crazies going to go away???
Re: canadi –
Perez doesn't have time nor does he care to actually do any work to make factual reports - haven't you noticed? He doesn't spell check or fact check ANYTHING. Can't believe sponsors pay him anything for his HACK TRASH
hey moron, if you ever read the bible you'd know thatthe EXACT dimentions are given. It's in cubits which is easily converted to feet.
Uh, you may want to pick up the bible sometime or go watch Evan Almighty-the dimensions of the ark are in the book. Hint*it's toward the beginning…
THERE'S ALREADY HOLYLAND IN ORLANDO
um… the dimensions of the ark are already in the Bible
Perez, who cares?
A Bible themed amusement park would be fun for some people.
Get over it.
hahaha who would g to that theme park? only old people and Flanders. i mean yung people would preffer go to disneyland or sixflags. I think those people watch the simpsons a lot.
but i can't wait to the harry potter theme park!!!!
And…what's the problem?? I think it's great! Plus, there is already a Bible theme park in your home state of Florida, called "The Holy Land Experience." Ya know, with all of your recent success, you may want to rethink your feelings about GOD. Afterall, he's the one who has blessed you with all that you have. It's also he who can take it all away. Really.
Jesus rocks!
Religious people are psychotic. As most Euro countries are becoming overwhemingly atheist, the US still is home to crazy christians. Atheists in America DO exist!! Approx. 50% of US does not believe in GOD but they don't publicly admit it for fear of being treated unfairly.
There going to try and build one in TN too. There's alot of people trying to stop it.
My son's name is Noah.I thought it was the cutest name and he is such a cute kid to
I love that name!!!
trying to plan one in TN near bonaroo too
Perez, the dimensions of the ark are in Genesis 6:15. It's ignorant comments like that show us just how shallow and uncultured you are. Ah, the shallow age which we live in where you are adored and teachers are underpaid…
the length of the ark is in the bible fucktard
It's called Holy Land and it's in Orlando, FL
Re: Amy – YEAH BUT AT LEAST AT DISNEY WORLD EVERYONE UNDERSTANDS THAT MICKEY AND MINNIE MOUSE ARE FICTION. HERE IS DIFFERENT. IF YOU THINK THAT YOUR IMAGINARY FRIENDS (GOD, JESUS, ETC.) GIVE AND TAKE THINGS AWAY FROM YOU THEN IT'S TIME TO HAVE YOUR HEAD CHECKED.
Re: mike – Calling Christians hypocrites for reading gossip websites makes you just an idiot. Obviously in your mind you think Christians are supposed to be perfect, cookie cutter, holy high people. Moron.

Re: Keith –
Good job thats what I was going to say! =D
PEREZ… DO YOU HAVE ANY BRAIN CELLS?
"Glad God was able to channel down the exact dimension's of Noah's Ark to the park's architects!"
One of the most ignorant things I've ever heard, way to make yourself look dumb Perez. In case you didn't know most Christians are just as educated in their religion as you are in celeb's lives. The dimensions are in the Bible. Not only that but it's the same as historians who study Dinosaurs, there are people who study what happened in the Bible.
well, considering they already have parks revolving around satan (it goes by one of his monikers, "Disney"), one around the J-man and his flip-mode squad doesn't sound too bad. I'd wear my Jerusalem cruisers and go.
you're going to hell, Mario
Perez… You STUPID boy. To say this statement makes you seem like a complete idiot: "Glad God was able to channel down the exact dimension's of Noah's Ark to the park's architects!"
Because the EXACT measurements (dimensions) of Noah's Art WERE recorded down in the Bible. So unless you didn't mean this statement as sarcastic, you'd best be EDUCATING yourself on things besides porn and haute couture to make sure you don't sound like the idiot and asshole you are.
Uh, the measurements of the Ark are IN the Bible, you fat dumb fuck, but since you don't actually read and Christians don't actually know jack shit about their own beloved textbook, I guess I shouldn't have expected you to know that, should I?
have seen caraways? its in north carolina. its a biblical themed park too.
The Holy Land here in Orlando is really hard to miss too - right off I-4 on your way to Universal Studios. And seriously, a bunch of my friends worked there in high school making $10/hour. The Bible pays well apparently!
i don't believe it…..Europeans are NOT bible thumpers!!!!
the one in florida is in Orlando and the name of it is Holy Land. no joke.
there is already 'The Holy Land Experience' located in Orlando, Florida…. buzz kill
there is a theme park in orlando called the holy land
Jesus Christ, a fucking biblical theme park? The rides should have names like Big Fucking Hypocrites, Judgmental and Delusional. And oh the fun to be had… I hear they have a replica of Noahs ark?!? For real?!? A big fucking boat surrounded by water! OMFG, I’ve never seen anything like that!!! Can’t wait!!! Is there a ride in kiddy land where priests molest children??? Praise the lord!
Re: love –
Don't you hate when you type OMG 1ST!!! And you are actually 28th? It happens to me too.
God didn't "channel down" any of the info in the Bible. Man made it all up, man wrote it. God had nothing to do with the Bible. How do I know this? I read books other than the bible AND I take seriously information that is not based on unprovable things, but rather provable facts. I trust information that doesn't insist that it is true when there is no proof. Sorry, I always ask questions, that's what got me to the way I think today….
God didn't "channel down" the info. for the Bible either. Man didn't "hear God" and then wrote his message in the Bible. Man wrote what he thought was good and write, not God. So no matter how much you want to believe this the intelligent thing to do is accept this because the fact is this: can you talk to God? have you ever seen or heard him? Right, nobody has.
Kinda strange, but okay…
I really don't see what the big deal is- let them build the park, it's not hurting anyone. Honestly, if Muslims or Buddhists built a similar park, we would hear nothing about it from Perez, who apparently believes all Christians are homophobes. Furthermore, the dimensions of the Arc are located in the Book of Genesis, though like a good lapsed Catholic, I'm sure he has never read it.
