Why do the Religious stand on a knoll and pose for a photo with the Golden Gate Bridge as a backdrop? What is the significance? I've seen a picture of a pope, bishop, rabbi, Buddhist nuns, Oral Roberts, Amie Simple McPherson, Dali Lama, several minor flarf poets and so on, all standing with the bridge behind them -- orange and on a bias as it docks on the Marin side of the bay.
Let's eliminate bridging as a metaphor, also bays, oceans and vistas. Let's eliminate photography and the need to be photographed or look at photography. Let's eliminate all religious doctrine that doesn't abandon itself when it has done its work in this very life.
