I think I'll build one of these in the forest on my property one day.
Sounds like a fine idea, except...
Where are you going to get the bones to do that?
Not talking about the money ("bones") either -- the actual CORPSES.
Last I checked there's no shortage of them. Why the concern?
I'm sure the Great Monarch will have quite a few to dispose of.
What I would really like to build is a shrine of stone to Our Lady in a grove and have the ground surrounding it littered with smashed and partially buried statues of pagan gods, occultists, and anti-christian philosophers, partly covered with weeds.
