Salvation, this is wonderful. Thank you very much. I’m glad to know that there are still artists working in a traditional manner. Too many of the churches of my youth were, umm, “altered,” with modern art. Cannot stand that stuff. But I’d love to see any of these (excluding Mr. Graham, no offense, Jeff Chandler). As a former graphic artist, words fail. Just beautiful. And thank you.

Three years later he became a Roman Catholic. Why not an Episcopalian? (The National Cathedral is Episcopal.) "When you get into any Christian doctrine, once you do more than scrape the surface, you get back into the Roman Catholic Church."

How can this be an ecumenical thread with an antagonizing statement like this???

And of course the statement is completely untrue...Expecially in view of one of the Ten Commandments that this religion violates...

Exo 20:4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth:
