What an un-freakin'-believable waste of....well,everything.

http://www.postchronicle.com/news/breakingnews/article_212336087.shtml

Wouldn't the money, man power, time, and effort be put to MUCH better use by doing, I don't know, ...maybe anything else?

Like weather proofing and fixing up elderly peoples homes? Or low income family homes?
Or maybe stocking up food banks all across the country? How about paying for doctors to travel to third world countries to do surgery for free like on cleft palates or other medical needs? Why not help feed some of those people too while they are at it? There is no end to the actual good things they could do, things that would really impact and make a difference in peoples lives.
And they are throwing it all away on recreating some stupid, idiotic recreation of a myth. A myth that any common rational thinking person KNOWS is just a myth, at best a metaphor. Just because they are trying to cover up the internal doubts they have about their own religion.
Yeah it's their money and they can do what they want too, but it's shit like this that I point out when people ask me why I have no patience with Fundamentalists.
