An idea...

I started this blog as an experiment in perspective. I often wonder why certain prejudice arrives when someone is in a Religiously dominated country. Could it possibly have something to do with religious structures and symbolism on display around town?

The idea is use your favorite image editor, (A free one is available through the Google Chrome Browser)to replace a Mosque with a Christian Christian Church, Or a Mormon Temple Replaced with a Synagogue, etc. etc. the combinations are limitless when one is free from prejudice.

This being said I will not tolerate out and out disrespect or obvious religious bigotry on this or any other blog I maintain. No religion has a preference here. This is simply about perspective. How does a Muslim view an american town with an 11 story cross in the town's center? What if it was a giant Crest or Dome? What if the dome of the Rock was the Salt Lake Temple and the surrounding domes replaced with arches.

This is purely an experiment and we have no goals or aspirations other than observation and reflection. Anyone who maybe offended may kindly deposit their comments in the circular receptacle in the corner. Thanks.
