From Pornography to Bible Park

He once shot photos for Penthouse magazine. Now he wants to help build a Bible park in Tennessee. According to the The Tennessean newspaper, Amnon Bar-Tur who was born in Israel and immigrated to the US, shot cover and centerfold photos of nude models in the ‘70s. He later helped to form SafeHarbor Holding. The company is proposing a 282-acre theme park called Bible Park, USA be built in Rutherford County near Murfreesboro. It would feature re-enactments of life Bible times, theaters and other attractions based on stories from Scripture. The developers say the Penthouse connection is irrelevant to whether to build the park - which they claim could pull in a million-and-a-half visitors every year.
