"The National Cathedral is Protestant,,,not Catholic with statues and beautiful art.
I was speaking more to the skill of the craftsmen creating the stone, glass and wood work rather that the religious inspiration of the art being made.
I'm sure a Catholic artisans would feel a bit more satisfied with his work and the millions of Catholics who would draw inspiration from it's beauty but it shouldn't prevent a Protestant from admiring it elegance as well(Well, it won't prevent me, a Protestant who feels great sorry from the destruction from the beautiful elegance and sheer magnitude from the greatness of the medieval Notre Dame Cathedral)
It boggles one's mind that this structure was built at a time where human labour with hand tools such as a hammer and chisel and "powered tools" were the aid of oxen. Such rudimentary tools constructed this wonder of the ancient world what out last two world wars, countless rebellions, invasions and earthquakes only to succumb to a careless construction worker.
