Re: The Asian mind and the Western mind
Well here's a nice Christian church in Changzhou, China, built in the architecture of the western mind, adorned with consumer stores in the style of the Chinese consumer mind, offering five or six services a week and scarily reminiscent of the LC with a lot of "Amen" chanting going on inside.
The painting to the right of the interior shot was interesting, I didn't get it all in, sorry, but it features a westernized non-Middle-Eastern pastoral Jesus with a very Chinese "Three Gorges" mountainous background. The sheep, as best I can figure, are Scottish.
