I apologise if this is perceived as "too strong" a wording. As I said,
there is no offense intended.

And as an explanation (to make clear where I am coming from) I
have to add that I am very sceptical of any tendencies to produce
eye-candy (in general, not just in theology) just because it's
possible/can be done. I believe it tends to be distracting ...
on the PC I spend a vast majority of my working-day in terminal
windows on a command line interface. I am sad that there's no
CLI interface for Sowrd in Linux available. :)

In terms of architecture I'd be a roman basilika, strongly
doubt the usefullness of an opulent, baroque church :} and quote
John 20:29. "happy those not having seen, and having believed."
(completely out of context).

Cheers, and God bless,
Andrej
