You have no evidence at all. You know nothing about me, and what I have done throughout my life. You have no idea if any of the things I’ve done, are “bad.” So who would give you the right to come in and search my house, search me, and search the papers and work that I have done? I More >
Have you ever looked at a goverment building in Washington, D.C, and said, “Huh, that building reminds me of Greece!” Well thats because most of the buildings in Washington D.C reflect the architecture style of Greece. One building that has the Greek, Roman revival style of architecture is the, Supreme Court of the United States. This buliding was created, because in the Constitution, it says that the judicial power of the United States, has to be held at one Supreme Court. In this building, they sometimes discuss rule making, and there is also a lot of jurisdiction held there. This building resembles some Greek buildings because the roof of it is in the shape of a triangle, as are many, many buildings are in Greece! This building is also white, like most Greek buildings are. If you look at a picture of Temple of Nike, then you will definitely be able to see the resemblance between these two buildings.<3-dom-<3
