    Well, they got it right associating Bible stories with children's medieval fairy tales.

    I wouldn't think that's the best theme to go with if you're a Christian group trying to get others to take Bible stories serious... and if the castle, princess and Bible story castle motiff doesn't make someone think fairy tales, perhaps the Dark Ages would come to mind instead?

    Or back even further in time to the land of talking snakes, genocide, flaming chariots, divine impregnation and blinding light...oops, that's the Bible. Upon reflection, it's not out of place in a children's theme park, although its violence is a little bit icky for kids.

    Yes, the Disney-ization of the Bible - Long overdue.

    kurtbethel The Masonic threat is overrated. I'm much more worried about Borg influence in the world.

    Understood!

    That said, what's the difference? They are both worshipping false gods.

    Indeed, the Bible Students and the Mormons both descend directly from the Masons, see the logo on the original Watch Tower publications and the Mormon undergarments.

    (Nehemiah 2:8) 8 also a letter to A′saph the keeper of the park that belongs to the king, that he may give me trees to build with timber the gates of the Castle that belongs to the house, and for the wall of the city and for the house into which I am to enter.” So the king gave [them] to me, according to the good hand of my God upon me.

    The bible does speak of a "castle" or "fortress" being attached to the temple. It is very likely that these people above did not familiarize themselves with the architecture of the time only one they were familiar with.
