Remember Fatima? When the Blessed Mother appeared to the little shepherd children and asked for a basilica to be built there? Well, she obvious didn't authorize the new basilica shown in the video below. In fact, no real Catholic could have authorized this monstrosity. It must have been an atheist imposter working to destroy the Church. How many pilgrims want to visit this...what exactly do you call it?...a bunker?...a fortress?...hardly a church. What a way to treat a sacred shrine!
Mary said the faith would never be lost in Portugal. Now in the parish office at Fatima -- that's another story. This building could have been designed by the evil mayor of Ourem who threatened the children. This must be his revenge.
Do the cattle cars pull up front or just come right inside?
ReplyDeleteJust another insult - we can take it, we've got experience! The beauty for Mary and for the pilgrims is in the hearts of the faithful.
The question I have is who authorizes this kind of eyesore in the name of the church?
ReplyDeleteWhoever he or she or they are they should all be shown the door. I wonder what it looks like inside.
That would have been interesting.
Yes, we can take it, I agree; and we can venerate Our Lady in our hearts.
ReplyDeleteBut this is an insult to her. Monstrosity is not too strong a word. Abomination? Wreckage? Sacrilege?
