Fewer Regrets...

I like most people left Rome with quite a few regrets. I did not get to see the Bone Church, The Appian Way, The Cemetary below St. Peter's, and a Wednesday Audience with JPII to name only a few.

Yet, today I discovered I missed something else, The Jubilee Church:

“With the Jubilee Church, we have worked to create a new Roman Catholic church for the 21st century – a landmark that upholds and builds upon the city’s rich architectural tradition,” says Richard Meier (a.k.a. Proffessor TurdBreath)

Needless to say I accomplished something through pure ignorance and omission. Now I have one less regret and one more notch on my belt of accomplishments!

~awesome sean

A.S. The Vatican paid for this thing! Someone should get excommunicated for this... Thom talk to your dad about this, what does Canon Law say? I am sure there must be some sort of penalty?

A.A.S. If Dante created a place for terrible architects of Chruches where would they be and what would be their torment?

Now Sean . . . you have to give Meier credit. It must've been hard to hire all those eskimos to build the Igloo Church of Satan.

Relief! There is a church out there more ugly than the one here at University of St. Thomas! I wonder if the architects knew each other.
What more can one say to that structure than, "Que cosa?"

And to back up The Bard's reprimand of Dave-o. Dave, you had better watch that Eskimo mockery. You need some diversity sensitivity training. Eskimoes would never build something that ugly! And with Brendan I am prepared to stand by the defence of Eskimoes' aesthetic taste.
