It would be pleasing if this curious skyline represented harmonious inter-faith relations. Sadly, while the two churches are indeed fine old Christian places of worship, in the UK these 'Mecca' buildings are a widespread chain of bingo halls, i.e., mild gambling dens, and therefore represent worship of a far less satisfactory sort.
Apologies for the spurious foreground intrusions, which could be cloned out if desired. Last edited by Alan T; Jun 7, 2009 at 10:05 AM. |

Here is a yet more bizarre juxtaposition which presented itself as I strolled through the town centre, hoping unsuccessfully to ascend the square tower in the first shot, which is sometimes open to the public.

doesn't seem to be a suitable location for advanced, adventurous city "in between buildings flying" Aaah, very funny. "Mild gambling dens" Worship of Mammon. Mecca. The inter-faith relation: islam doesn't allow certain kinds of handling of money, for example interest rate whereas there are cultures with a keen interest in what comes out from the lower regions Freud .... No. I'll stop with that. Very entertaining pictures, Alan Torgny |
