Cape May N J at night sees tourists fill bars and promenades while the Christian Admiral Hotel lures visitors with Bible worship. Rev Carl McIntyre’s adherents run the Victorian building, emphasizing salvation over escapism, banning alcohol and profanity, and seating guests in rooms named after states or departed loved ones. The hotel, bought for about $500,000, offers $21 rooms with private baths and three meals daily, staffed by religious students who may pretend faith to gain work.
