We do not 'worship' buildings, but they can be sacred to us. They hold meaning for us. They are the repositories of our history. They help focus our faith and our communities. But perhaps the greatest testament to this particular spot -- the only one SOME people will accept -- lies in the gospel of John. Mary herself said, "The place is sanctified." And should remain so. This IS an outrage. The seventy-times-seven has been reached and exceeded, still with no repentance in sight. In other words -- ENOUGH ALREADY! This Christian is very angry!

I can not find this unfamiliar idea in my bible, could you please give the book and verse to which you are referring.

What translation of the New Testament are you using? And what is the exact reference in the gospel of John for this quote?

Beau Schott: oops, sorry for the confusion.
