Probably about 50% related: Did you know that the design of the Event Horizon (from the film of the same name) was actually based on the Notre Dame cathedral?

This is the ceiling of Sherborne Abbey, the church of my youth. Each of the bosses contains the arms of a local family, a symbol of royal patronage, or scenes from the Bible and hagiography.
Worshipping in a building like this regularly really instills a sense of what it means to be English and a Christian (as if those were separate categories).

the ideology of protestantism is that any opulent displays of wealth or power is detracting from God's vision. Protestants maintain that they should be humble, and have humble churches to match
The US was founded upon Quaker values, this is the way they were.

Considering how the majority of yuropoors don't even own houses, I think the Americans win in this regard.

Why would you be proud of this? Even bloated American suburbs are infinitely better than living like ants.

The original Americans are.
The Quakers who founded the Massachussets Bay colony were an uptight bunch. They believed that any sort of laughter, enjoyment, or pleasure was anti-God. They covered their bodies from head to toe. They'd spend all their time working their fingers to the bone in silence, never smiling, showing any merriment, or pleasantries.
Even today America is touched by these values. For example, the taboos around cursing, or showing nudity

The European churches built them in such a way so as to display the majesty and power of God. They were houses of worship which spanned across time and eternity. They believed churches to literally be art in the TRUE sense: that skill which is honed and used so as to suggest the eternal, immortal, and everlasting God. Any form of expression that did not do this was a waste of time. That is why they are all so beautiful, filled with paintings, stained glass and sculptures, and why basically every great artist of the last 2,000 years have been Christians and commissioned by the church. But the idea the catholic and orthodox churches weren't humble is sadly mistaken. They humbled themselves so much as to only care what God thinks of there work. They were more interested in the next world than this one; their art reflected that.
Go to basically any church in Italy, Switzerland, Germany, or Britain, and they will take your breath away. At least they took mine away.
I always thought the Protestant one was a bit more different. That they didn't really have the money of means to build giant churches out of Granite and marble. I've seen some beautiful Protestant church's but most are just shacks
William Edwards
A European masterpiece.

Nice try - that mosque was designed by an Albanian, not a T*rk.

At least they are shacks and not just commie blocks with a banner at the front like the Protestant churches in Brazil.
Jackson Garcia
So......where do you think those people came from?
Yet we have nice architecture.

I know. In Portland Oregon there are Protestant churches with gay pride flags and blm banners. It sickens me
