Oh and I suppose the currently chosen 7 "wonders" of the world are wonderous...They were also feats of engineering at the time they were made.
My point is there are plenty of modern structures that deserve the title more than those old relics

The only reason Christ Redeemer is on there is probably because bible thumpers and Jesus freaks swarmed the polls like locusts.

the thing is that old relics where build in ancient times where it was much more dificult
for example today you can use a crane whit some diesel engine and voila you can lift any kind of stuff,but in those times you need to used people and poles and ropes and all that stuff

oh wait it says you cant vote for the pyramids of giza for the new 7... what a crok!!
i still think the building, which has been left standing for over 4500 years, is better than some freakin statue of jesus thats 80 years old.
