Arch of Triumph of Palmyra, not Temple of Baal, to rise in New York and London
The plan to build a replica of the arch of the Temple of Baal in New York City and London has been abandoned and instead, the Arch of Triumph of Palmyra will rise.
This was announced by the Institute for Digital Archaeology (IDA), which promotes the use of digital imaging and 3D printing in archaeology and conservation.
A report in the New York Times last month said the Temple of Baal’s entrance would be installed in New York and London as a tribute to the 2,000 year-old structure that was destroyed by the Islamic State last year in Palmyra, Syria.
However, many Christians opposed the plan.
Quoting the World Net Daily, CBN News said according to Matt Barber, Baal worship involved burning infants alive.
