Have to tuck that one away, for the next time the subject comes up.

Yep.

It's one of those things. I don't know anymore that people see a church as a place of beauty so much as a functional building and it should be more of a place of beauty - what God inspires.

Our pastor's homily last Sunday was about the church building (I suppose it was inspired by the day's Gospel reading), and included information about the Lateran Basilica.

The point Fr. Clements made was that a church building is not just something IN which we worship, but something WITH with we worship.
