Contrasts

Last night we spent the night at Embassy Suites in Charleston. On the way back from dinner, I took this picture of Laidley Tower and the St. George Orthodox Church.

Looking at these two building - the very modern one and the one designed as a Cathedral, I was struck by the contrast.

How often do the beliefs of our faith contrast with the habits of modern society? Can those differences be as striking as the differences in these buildings? What is our reaction?
