Greg on Amusement Churches
the parish: Wherefore Art Thou, Irony?: "That's correct. Not only do they charge admission to baptism, the initiates are free to play on the rides as soon as their baptism is done, maybe even before. I can't think of a more appropriate symbol of this particular church's commitment to the kingdom of God than an amusement park. I've been working on a new thesis this year: I'm convinced that conservatives of the political and religious stripe are immune to irony. This is one more bit of evidence in favor of my thesis."

But are they going to do it on the flume? Now there's a way to make baptism truly entertaining! Those who are into the whole submersion thing might use the water slides instead.
It's all about the value added!
Besides, what better basis for selecting your path to salvation than whose God has the bigger rollercoaster?
