'Christian theme park' finds savior on TV

ORLANDO, Fla. -- Jesus Christ is crucified and resurrected here six days a week.

Snarling Roman soldiers whip and drag him, and somber audience members watch.

It is the grand finale at the Holy Land Experience, and not the attraction most tourists envision in an Orlando vacation. Just miles from Walt Disney World, Universal Orlando and SeaWorld in this city's overstimulated tourist corridor, Holy Land has in its six years of operation aimed to re-create Jerusalem of biblical times.

It is often referred to as a ''Christian theme park,'' but the park offers lectures, not rides, making it feel more like a trip to church. Its officers prefer to call it a ''living biblical museum'' and until last month, the nonprofit operation was troubled. Management changed hands, its founder left and attendance was flat.
