I think it is culturally insensitive that they are still calling the building a chapel. They should call it something non-offensive like, maybe, "The Peoples Cottage."

As for this compromise of allowing crosses in the peoples cottage." I find that culturally insensitive as well.

Just as the People's hero Hugo Chavez smells the sulphur when he enters a room that Bush had been in, people gathering at the "Peoples Cottage" at Williams and Mary might still sense that a cross had been in the building.

I am tired of right wing loons who use things like crosses in chapels to divide the peoples. I believe that we should unite, and not divide the peoples. So, rather than just removing the Cross from the Chapel, Williams and Mary should replace it with an image that unites the peoples. For example, I always feel unity with the peoples movement when I see an image of Che Guevara.
