The Nazareth Cross Project aims to build the world’s largest and most impressive cross, standing at 60 meters tall, housing a magnificent church in its center. The cross will be decorated by some 7.2 million brilliant mosaic tiles of varying sizes, each one with a personal engraving. These tiles will be made of stone from Nazareth,
or platinum, silver or gold.
The breathtaking Church with its panoramic view will be located at the intersection of the arms of the cross, 15 stories high, and will contain over 400 m2 of floor space.
In the 8000 m2 surrounding this monumental cross,
a visitor center will be built to offer a unique inspirational experience as well as a world-class educational and leisure center.
The central location of the church together with a circular monorail transportation system will provide pilgrims easy access to and from the historic Christian churches, the Fountain of Mary and the city’s central bazaars.
The Nazareth Cross will also become the entrance point to Nazareth Village – an archeological park revealing the most ancient part of Nazareth while presenting a re-creation of its daily life during the
time of Jesus.

That's big enough to nail a few thousand Jesuses on it.

are they going to put a roller coaster on top of it?...cuz then it wouldn't be so bad

Driving the faster (but more boring) route from WI to GA, the only thing breaking up 7 hours' worth of monotony in southern IL is this:

awesome. or just one that drops real fast into what looks like "hell."

someone's gonna get crucified for this...

haha, "meters"

I just don't quite remember the passage in the Bible that made it necessary to "Out-Jesus" everyone.

that's me in the bottom corner.

Also, Jesus holding a dead baby. He seems really broken up about it. That's
Texasfor you.

why don't he just bring it back to life with an easter spell or something?

"Oh God, this thing is disgusting… I think I'm gonna--uurp--"

Holy shit.

Personally, I'm gonna start making all my arguments in bronze. Nothing says "I'm right, you're wrong" like a statue.

Im in ur park
mournin yr abortmentz

in other words, there's going to be a bible gift shop that sells holy relics and the world's largest selection of Christian music.

Also, while talking about this--I'm all for celebrating faith, etc, but when you have such a surplus of funds that you can build this shit, its time to not be tax exempt.

You know the expression on his face fairly screams "WHY JESUS, WHY?"

Except, you know he IS Jesus.... I'm confused

oh, that whole thing was pretty intense. Note the stations of the cross acted out in bronze surrounding the base of it. and the gift shop... let's just say I'm surprised they didn't have plush aborted fetus hats.

In retrospect, crack's pretty lucky he didn't end up on their mailing list.

I can't wait til someone flies a plane into this.

But seriously, I wonder what the chances are that this thing will actually be built.

They actually plan on building this in Nazareth?

Fucking brilliant. If it gets built it will be rubble within a year.

Yeah, exactly. This isn't Texas or some South American country that we're talking about here.

They'll wait till the last splotch of paint is put on it, and THEN blow it up.
