From the article it sounds like a modern zionist movement... and the guy who's heading it has the finances to make it happen.
Fascinating. I really thought this sort of thing had died out - and that Catholics on the whole would be against building such a place. A really big monestary community? I don't know how view it really...
in any case, I'm not sure that it's feasable in the long-term. It seems that an idea like this would fall apart within a few generations - if it even lasts longer than a few years.
What would draw someone to such an environment? Where would they get a continued base of residents? Just how sheltered would the kids be that grow up there?
I'd be interested to see what the official stance of the Catholic church is on this guy's plan... would the Pope be against a community? If even relatively successful, would this be the start of a trend? Would other religions jump back into Zionist mode?
