No stretch here. When a Guatemalan-based evangelical church expanded into Houston, they did it up right, didn't they? Complete with bas-relief Biblical figures and scenes on the pediment that look as if they've been attached with KrazyGlue. The structure abuts an access road of the 59 Freeway and is blindingly illuminated by what looks to be around 84,000,000 candlepower at night.
