It's hard to believe that this is for real. But it is.

East meets West meets Business.
House shrines are rather the norm than the exception for Taoists or Buddhists. So welcome to the club for other faithes.

It's commonplace to see mini-shrines at home in Asia - at least in India that I know. In fact except for the atheists, everyone has one, but that's part of the culture - ever since Idol worship gained acceptance.
No need to go that far away. I have no idea about the old Germans, but Romans, Greeks, Celts all have had their house-shrines.
Oh, and forgot to say, they are in no way anything like "church-on-demand", but a real complement to the public sacred places.
What's all this surprise about? Just rewind time in western Europe for maybe 40 years and you'd find them all over in the households.
It's not the shrines I find amazing. It's the notion of "church on demand." Give me enlightenment, please, but only when I can fit it into my schedule...
"Church on demand" as in Church 2.0 a.k.a mission critical CSOA.... Bogus press releases are quite normal these days. This came in on monday morning and despite these guys are in the art business like those age-old situationists: (--Detlef)

Dear high risk art consumer,
Today, April 10, etoy performs a critical mission check. experts will x-ray MISSION ETERNITY - the electronic framework which enables users to travel space and time forever. Four days later TESTPILOT No.1, Sepp Keiser (age 82) will be ready for ENCAPSULATION TEST No.4 (Karfreitag, April 14 2006). Three previous tests failed due to logistic, financial or technical problems. The mission is in danger.
MISSION CHECK No.1: Monday April 10, 2006 / START: 18:30:00
ENCAPSULATION No.4: Saturday April 14, 2006 / START: 16:00:00
LOCATION: Kunstraum Walcheturm -> Kanonengase 20, 8004 Zurich.
Mission check and encapsulation are public events and can be followed
for an investement of 2 CHF (9 etoy.FIZZLES = 0,18 etoy.SHARE).
etoy.CORPORATION rejects passive culture tourists who do not share the
risk and passion for radical contemporary art (as usual: etoy wants your
knowledge, soul and capital). In return for your investment, MISSION ETERNITY CONTENT enters the public domain* and all code is 100% open source - a fair deal and a reasonable alternative to the established art market.
he he, capitalism brings everything into business...
