What I want to see is in Europe, apparently, out of my financial and geographic reach.

But not out of reach of your computer ;-)

These glass, steel and concrete monstrosities defy any understanding of "divine" worship. They would be better suited to worship of the goddess Diana. Even Zeus would balk at such a design.

Consider, too, the ecological effect of these edifies - glass in a warm climate generates plenty of heat which would require air conditioning to cool down the interior space. And how do they plan to clean all of that glass? These glass structures are nothing more than egotiscal tributes.

The Bay area (Oakland) is rarely warm or cold.
