Visit any large city in the East and some the most impressive church structures you see will be Episcopal. But the congregations who frequent those edifices are graying and dwindling. Without heavy endowments, those old churches would not be able to keep their doors open. In Pittsburgh, one gorgeous stone church has been converted into a restaurant/brewery (The Church Brew Works).

Not to dispute the spirit of what you wrote, but The Church Brew Works was a Catholic Church - St. John the Baptist. Been there...

Bibles in their pews have been replaced with copies of The Da Vinci Code.

I've been there, as well -- very interesting experience -- almost felt like I was sacreligious. For some reason, I thought it was Episcopal. Thanks for setting me straight.
