Way back when, churches used to be all spires and stone and they looked pretty dang holy to me (and considering that I’m distinctly non-religious, that’s impressive)

I mean damn, that is a holy looking building right there, it’s all appropriate to the landscape and what not.

image

Lookit that, you can’t help but see the majesty of the universe n’ shit when you look at that

image

Everything is fucking gold and covered in candles, you know this place means business.

image

See, now that is a place of fucking reverence right there, all made of stone and ancient traditions stretching back like two thousand years

image

and this one it’s like “I’ve got so many towers you can’t help but feel the power of the lord”

image

and this one has so many towers, I dunno man, but you’ve gotta respect the towers, and onion domes.  That many onion domes can’t help but make you think of the all mighty.

and then suddenly

image

it was all like

image

“we’ve gotta update our image”

image

“bring in some kids”

image

“What do kids like?”

image

“I think kids like the Star Wars”

image

“let’s do that”

still good

1,000 bomber raids, concrete, and modernist architecture happened

Are jokes a problem for you or…?
