Yeah, you might want to say more. Not everybody has the same set of beliefs as you, after all. I mean.. I'm with you in a sense.. but.. uh... this won't work for everyone.

Taterbug? I'd know that building anywhere. You got to get there earlier at night though when the bottom half of the dome is lit up also. This is a touch out of focus and a touch crooked too.

Edit to add: I know this ain't a taterbug shot now. I can't wait to see who shot this. We'll have to get together!

please say more in now way does this strike me as falling in the sin theme. if the people that constitute the governmenet are sinful and such, teh institution itself is not sinfully created.

Yes, I think you really do need to say more....I'm fairly certain the government isn't one of the seven deadly sins....
