The outside looks like testimony to abstract ego.
Inside the statues are gone, votive candles snuffed, kneelers removed, and tabernacle
taken from public view. Take the crucifix away (if there still is one),

In his
new book, Ugly as Sin, Catholic architect Michael Rose examines this dangerous

communicates the Faith while the latter doesn't. His revelation gives renewed appreciation
for the gift of faith that is our traditional church and solid arguments to help us change
what's gone wrong with its architectural evolution.
