Christian Science Church, Dixon Illinois:
 

 
It's quite real, just paste the following co-ordinates into Google Earth or Google Maps:
  • 41°50'31.1"N 89°29'09.4"W
 
It would appear that the architect's penis mightier than the er..... pork sword

It appears to be a rather limp attempt at architecture.

I hear they're planning an extension to attract more ladies to the church.

The same architect (or, perhaps, his wife) did the new Welsh Newport Station.

Apparently they wanted the church to have a bell tower, but local planning regulations wouldn't allow for a big erection, so he gave it a bell end instead.

I hear tell that you have taken possession of a new knob.
 
This knob... is it smooth and shiny?

Apparently the church patriarch has been under constant fire from the male congregation for approving the controversial design.
 
They are all bashing the bishop on a regular basis.
