Sad thing is since they market as a "Christian" campground I know tons of people who flock (like sheep) to things like that just because it's labeled Christian. They're willing to pay more for the word "Christian" in the title. With some of the biggest churches in the US in Columbus (Vineyard, World Harvest, Grove City Naz, etc) they will stay in business easily.
that is not necessarily true; Its easy for most Christians to read between the "lines" with most christian businesses; however....that being said, you have to admit that most establishments that label themselves as christian do hold to a higher standard of ethics, so maybe it is worth it to some to pay the extra pricing.
I remember a story from the Bible about Jesus tipping over tables of money because people were making money in his name. It's a gimmick and nothing more, why else label your business in that way? Why not just label yourself as a campground with high standards? Because like I said before, I know tons of people who will blindly flock to places like that and overpay for everything. It's like the guys in high school at youth group who pretended they were gonna be preachers so the girls would go out with them, all the church girls wanted to be a pastors wife.
I think the pricing of this place speaks volumes about its ethics--that it's willing to charge higher than the area norm for sub-par facilities and then lie about wood being restricted so you have to pay $10/bundle (small) from their own store. They must have missed a few parts in the Bible when they setup their business, or they just skipped over them.
Well, just to set the record straight, Christ was kicking the buyers and sellers out of the temple, the place of worship.
its always the sunday morning quarterbacks that misinterpret things and then start a flame war over nothing..
If people choose to pay extra for a certain type of environment so be it...Koa'ers do it everyday and they are not weakminded followers; they choose to go there and pay the extra...
People have to look at the establishment and decide for themselves whether or not they choose to spend their money there...
I dont think its fair or right that you label every Christian as a weakminded label follower, that is simply not true.

This is not always true jdubh2. Yes, I am a Christian and that "label" that is noted on this campground did attract my attention. Yes, it did make me look twice as I don't care for the party crowd that some campgrounds allow and I felt that "Inn The Woods" would not tolerate. But I also choose not to stay there not only because they only had "one" campsite that would accomodate us but also I didn't care for the $20.00 fee for the dump station usage. I would like to think that we fellow Christians don't blindly follow anything!
