Park aims to draw diverse crowds with faith outreach
Rosenthal plans a theme park to reach people of all faiths with no overt proselytizing. He notes a $350,000 advertising budget and a break-even goal of 180,000 visitors, contrasting with Orlando’s major parks that draw millions annually. Critics including Rabbi Shapiro and Rabbi Wolpe challenge using prayers in the exhibit as a Christian proselytizing device. Funding comes from Zion's Hope donors, subscribers, and land sales proceeds.
