If its just about being somewhere and worshipping, then people would just gather in a parking lot and pray. If someone's going to go to the trouble of building a church of this size, they should put more thought and creativity into it.

"faux?" It isn't Roman or Palladian to begin with, it's based on those. It is a style known as American Classical. You might as well be saying that Palladian architecture is fake because it was based on Roman architecture but produced over 1,000 years later. Is England's Parliament fake, as it is Gothic Revival, built centuries after the official Gothic movement in architecture. A style does not have to be built explicitly in the time it was originated in to be authentic.

It is all about being there and worshiping, Not what you wear and what the Church looks like.

What's so beautiful about it? It's a big box with a false facade. <br /><br />There certainly isn't any beauty inside. It's a huge auditorium with fake columns on the walls. There's a reason why people feel comfortable wearing shorts and flip flops to services there - it's because the building doesn't command respect.

The problem is that the culture of mass-man humanistic democracy makes a virtue out of vices (and Christianity is much to blame for developing the attitude that made liberal modernism possible).<br /><br />In order to get something good we won't be able to go back in time - that will just produce hideous crap like Washington D.C.'s faux-Palladian/Roman architecture. That place is one of the ugliest cities on Earth, Detroit looks better than DC by virtue of being less pretentious in its ugliness.<br /><br />Modern aesthetics, culture, ideology and - let's face it - people will have to die out before anything new and worthwhile can grow in the burnt out pickup truck shell that is the West.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2353586762275081535.post-84233603514956535192012-06-26T05:35:56.627-07:002012-06-26T05:35:56.627-07:00You have no idea about TRBC.
