Today there are more than 7,000 loyal Swedenborgians in the U.S. (and about 45,000 elsewhere) who belong to three churches. The biggest concentration of them is in the Philadelphia suburb of Bryn Athyn; there, most of the town's population of 1,100 belong to the General Church of the New Jerusalem, which for 51 years has been putting up a magnificent-but still incomplete-Gothic cathedral...
