"If people want to build a beautiful church what's it to you?"

We are discussing the proposition that the Church should "celebrate beauty". My basic contention is that real beauty is spiritual truth and not outward form or pomp.

Spiritual and physical beauty are not mutual exclusive. In fact, they can correctly have a lot in common.
