  • When I first came across this blog, I did not know it was satire.

    You can click the link and read the satire about; "Police are questioning a 38 year old Catholic priest on charges of arson after 17 out of 18 churches he was stationed at burned to the ground over a 13 year period." But I just wanted to post pictures of some ugly NO buildings.




























    Kappal Matha Church in Uvari, India - This really is a NO church.
    "But Peter and the apostles answering, said: We ought to obey God, rather than men." - Acts 5:29

    The Highest Principle in the Church: "We are first of all under obedience to God, and only then under obedience to man" - Fr. Hesse

  • Pardon my French, but what the damn hell is wrong with the world these days?

  • This overwhelming ugliness all around has a reason:

    Designs Of The Jєωs On Art And Architecture

    http://www.fatherfeeney.org/other/Jєωs-art.html

    Quote

    Although there is no precedent in the animal world which justifies the building of a place for religious meetings, the dispensers of modern Jєωιѕн architecture have produced, along with their housing projects, a number of churches. Each of these looks as though the architect had begrudgingly said to himself as he started off, “Well, if all the pious herd want to be packed into one room at one time, I suppose I can build them a barn for the purpose.”

    Lately, the architects have been more enthusiastic about churches. They are now designing a variety which fits quite neatly into the animal pattern. It is popularly called the Interfaith Chapel. It is a communal religious center for the priest, the minister, the rabbi, and its calculated Jєωιѕн effect is to reduce the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, and Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament, to the level of televangelist fakery and тαℓмυdic filth — a supreme award for eighty five years of plotting on the part of Messrs. Picasso, Epstein, Moholy and company.
    If anyone says that true and natural water is not necessary for baptism and thus twists into some metaphor the words of our Lord Jesus Christ" Unless a man be born again of water and the Holy Spirit" (Jn 3:5) let him be anathema.

  • This thread wouldn't be complete without mention of the Taj Mahony, seen here in a comprehensive tour video created by Youtuber Alphonsus Jr (former CI poster jitpring):

  • The first one looks like an auto body shop or a service center for your car. A lot of Protestant churches near me have that box structure or Wal-Mart style of architecture.  Sad to see Catholic copying Protestant  and Jєωιѕн art styles.

    Yes, when reading the thread title I fully expected to see a pic of that monstrosity.  However, the ones posted are equally repulsive or more so.

    We can take comfort that Justice will set everything aright.

    It's from some heathen-sperg's blog about how the Inquisition makes him sad. Don't know where he got it from, though.

    Don't remember, actually.

    Nevermind, found it:

    Yet another ingrate apostate fool whining about the power the Church used to have.

    I love it when they cry and complain about these things.

    In their heretical faces! All power to the Church!  :dwarf:

    Eh, don't worry. If there is ever actually a reform that takes the Church back before Vatican 2, it's not like they can actually fight.  They're just like liberals: Literally all they can do is whine from behind a computer screen, and get 'other' people to fight for them.
