And they say size does not matter
As the Deconstructed Christian puts it, “Behold, I present to thee the largest, crappiest, most expensive piece of Jesus Junk ever.”
From the web site:
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 4500 square feet of floor space.
In the 2.5 square miles (5 km2) 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.
