A temple for athiests

There's an interesting piece over at Londonist about "plans" (and we use the word loosely) by writer Alan de Botton and architect Tom Greenall to build a tower devoted to the religion that is atheism. This, from Greenall's website:

Work is now under way to realise the first of these Temples for Atheists. Standing 46-metres tall and in the heart of the City of London, the temple represents the entire history of life on earth: each centimetre of its height equates to one million years of life. One metre from the ground, a single line of gold - no more than a millimetre thick - represents the entire existence of humankind. A visit to the temple will leave one with a renewed sense of perspective.

Interesting. To be taken seriously? Really?
