Read the article dimwit, they are proposing incentives, it is not state funded. Good for KY.
Incentives translate to money. No taxes, etc.
Same as giving money if letting a tax cut expire is being for raising taxes.
Incentives translate to returning the collected sales taxes for 10 years. The maximum returned sales tax = 25% of the investment
Of course, without the theme park, the local and state tax revenue will be nothing, nada, ZERO.
I am!! For one thing there is no such thing as separation of church and state in the constitution.
What an ignorant and useless thing to say.
Was anyone ever marred by seeing someone pray?
So you are in support of school led prayer?

So, you'd be OK with one that started "There is only one god, and he is Allah" or "Praise Gaia"?
FRANKFORT, Ky. Gov. Steve Beshear said Wednesday that a creationism theme park, expected to open in Northern Kentucky in 2014, would have a $250 million annual impact on the states economy.
Ark Encounter, which will feature a 500-foot-long wooden replica of Noahs Ark containing live animals such as juvenile giraffes, is projected to cost $150 million and create 900 jobs, Beshear announced at a Capitol press conference.
Make no mistake about it, this is a huge deal, he said.
The park, to be located on 800 acres in Grant County off Interstate 75, also will include a Walled City, live animal shows, a replica of the Tower of Babel, a 500-seat special-effects theater, an aviary and a first-century Middle Eastern village.

Which state is planning to build a theme park for Grimm's Fairy Tales, I wonder? A monument to foolishness....in Kentucky. They must be so proud.
The state is not looking to build it, you ignorant hyper-partisan imbecile
It is a group of investors looking to build it within the state

Ya know, for someone who rants and raves about Muslim haters and how we as Americans should be be more tolerant....................
I'm thinking of a word that starts with hyp and ends with ite with ocr sandwiched in between.
"Christian"? Ummm, there's this book called the Old Testament/Hebrew Bible. Perhaps you're familiar with it?Just curious. How can it be constitutional to dedicate millions of dollars of taxpayer money to promoting fundie christian beliefs?
Wow that's almost as nuts as putting a Muslim tourist attraction in Lower Manhattan. Will this park also be tax-exempt?
That was tried in Sana Fe ISD, Texas, twice, and the kids and adults screwed the pooch, twice. Or so SCOTUS said. A moment of silence is for everybody at the beginning of the day: for the religious and the non-religious.

Are you that personally threatened by the views of creationists that you had the need to make this thread and then disparage them in it?
I mean seriously get some self confidence and stop being a bigot towards chrisitians.

lol.. i love whenever christians are told they're being goofy, somwhow people are 'threatened'.
seriously...
go look at the subject matter that forms the basis for most of the fauxrage on this board...
and *this* thread is what somehow offends *you*.
really?
Funny, I know of at least three non-Christian posters who call this sort of blatant bigotry out from time to time, and they invariably get labeled as Christians.Are you that personally threatened by the views of creationists that you had the need to make this thread and then disparage them in it?

I'm not a christian Jillian. I just saw the person acting like a bigot towards christians and called it out just like I would if someone was acting bigoted toward Judaism or Islam.
The fact that you feel the need to defend such bigotry makes me wonder if my impression of you as being a good, honorable, and decent poster was wrong.

Insulting a religion is not automatically bigotry. Lighten up.
