[small voice in the wilderness]

I am against all church buildings where God’s Word is misinterpreted, added to, taken from, turned into a lie, wasted, used to fool ignorant people, and used to create a false sense of worship. Feeling doesn’t make it so. Searching the scriptures daily to see if those things are true does. Beauty is found in the simplicity that is in Christ.

So it's not that the money could be better spent on the poor? I thought that was your reason.

Instead, you approve of church buildings for churches that agree with your theology.

Do you ever find beauty in nature or in art? If so, what is its source?

Mother Teresa of Calcutta said (and I'm paraphrasing), "I could not get through even one day, with the work that I do, without first receiving my Jesus [in the Eucharist!]."
