Vader is in a relatively prominent place, too. He's not exactly hidden away. My personal favorite is this one that is in an area not open to the public. It has a robed dude holding a shield, smiling and waving towards whoever happens to be looking out the window. The stone carvings there have a lot of history... it's not only true, but it's fun. My favorite true story: the people in the genesis carving on the front of the cathedral were strippers and customers from a strip joint in georgetown. Their bodies were idealized but the faces weren't. I’ve seen the gas mask one before, too. Vader is in a relatively prominent place, too. He’s not exactly hidden away.

It's been there for a 100 years and officially it's the Cathedral Church of Saint Peter and Saint Paul (Episcopal, BTW). But the nation uses it to the point that most people no longer use the correct name. It's a huge place, and where else in the area are you going to hold the kind of major events it does? If you see a big state event on TV, a funeral or things like the National Day of Prayer a few days after 9/11, and it's in someplace that looks like a cathedral, that's where it is. As for the funding, it came from the same place that funding for any religious building does: private donations. All $65 million. Google is your friend. See how much indignation it could have saved you? “Who’s idea was it to have a “National Cathedral”? Who financed this monument to the desecration of the Constitution which forbids such nonsense?!”

Here’s a REALLY wierd thing to look up: The murals at the Denver Airport. WEIRD! They also depict a gas-masked Darth Vadar-like soldier amoung other ‘end of the world’ imagry. People give silly explanations for what they are about but just come to your own conclusions.

Reguardless of that kinda thing, I agree that a movie icon of evil domination is not appropriate for a church carving. Or maybe it is! haha
