[quote=OgreMkV,Dec. 02 2010,11:47][/quote] Quote | I guess there are now two questions?
1) Who is going to sue first for a First Amendment violation (you'd think a 300 cubit ark was a pretty obvious endorsement of one religion)? |
I don't think this is going on public land and as the announcement notes it's being privately funded. I don't see where the first amendment violation would stand. That the governor is endorsing this is an interesting fine-line issue, it seems he's been careful about noting he's promoting it because of the employment impact. I doubt this will be an issue.
Quote | 2) If no one sues, then when will the first Muslim theme park open? Complete with rental burkahs and those that don't bow when the bell rings get blown up.*
* Yes, I'm being objectionable and stereotypical of the muslim religion. deal with it.

When some well-funded conservative Muslim group decides that such a venture will further its goals. Until then, it won't happen.
