From what I've been able to find, Brazil has similar fair use copyright law to the US, which means that private works photographed from public land may be used without permission assuming they are not otherwise reserved or trademarked. How about using all those resources to drive home to fact that we believe in a God bigger than statues and temples?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16694386433691060217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18842286.post-18167388113802482792010-02-26T11:47:52.128-06:002010-02-26T11:47:52.128-06:00The restaurant is Taiwanese, btw.

By making the perfect the enemy of the good, we have filled our pews with zombies who show up for an hour, sing some mindless ditties and nap through the homily.<br /><br />If nothing else, at least all those rosaries helped the Poor Souls.<br /><br />Anthony OPLAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18842286.post-399837712301369822010-02-26T04:34:47.530-06:002010-02-26T04:34:47.530-06:00ummm, father, forgive me....but I laughed uproario...ummm, father, forgive me....but I laughed uproariously at that last picture.<br /><br />points given for creativity<br /><br />points docked for respect...MightyMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02563721884001643857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18842286.post-29855519326504337032010-02-26T02:17:41.246-06:002010-02-26T02:17:41.246-06:00A good article on VII.
