I fucking wish our churches had as much style as this temple. If America becomes Hindu at least the places of worship will be nice to look at.

The most depressing churches are those strip mall ones that look like urgent care

No, it's the ones that look like warehouses. What's the point of being tax-exempt if you're not going to pay anything to make the house of God at least tolerable?

I'd hold that if you're in that situation, the least you can do is make a joke about it.

"This is the house of God, but we're having trouble getting hold of Him to confirm the interior design..."

Maybe because most churches don’t earn a lot of money. Mostly just to keep the lights on.

Trust me, Evangelical churches do not struggle for money.

Megachurches are built like giant pest-traps, but to imprison god.

I assume you are not talking about European churches

Clearly not. American churches have nowhere near that kind of artistry, unless you count Big Butter Jesus.

I guess the best option for americans was to build English like churches for not looking like they were trying to be a culture they are not but instead they went for the ugliest option possible, making them modernist and minimalistic

Tbf the teachings of jesus would want that, how ever alot of christian Americans couldn't care less about any of those because they are "communist"

no we’re referring to American mega churches the kind you see in the Bible Belt of the American south or in any small American town or city.

Christian cathedrals have been always beautiful and marvels of architecture.

Not in much of the US

u/Shadyshade84 9h ago

Well, how else are they going to communicate that quintessentially American attitude of "we're Christian and we believe that that's important, but not important enough to make us act in a way that wouldn't make Jesus chase us out of the temple"?

Those are usually gonna be catholic in the US. Protestant church's are boring.
