Device to Root Out Evil

You may remember my post about the upside down church ("Device to Root Out Evil"), a sculpture that has been in my city for some time. I asked readers to comment on the message it sends, and it was most interesting to read people's thoughts.
Today, the "church" was removed from its home and shipped to Calgary, where residents are obviously more sophisticated and open, according to some of our locals. The comments regarding the sculpture are most interesting, and all over the map. Check out the article with assorted comments below, and the photo gallery listed on the right hand side, if you're interested.
Lots of people around the city interpreted it as a slam on the church and religion, while others saw it as a call to be more than just a building or an institution. Any new thoughts from you?
