Because their so heavily Greek you would figure they would name their church after a Greek Saint

I think I'm the only non-Greek that goes

🤷

@Deleted User I, too, am one of the few non-Greeks at my church

I'm in the Serbian jurisdiction but there's a fair mix at my parish.

I'm putting that in the "art" section because it's a masterpiece

so there is this French softcore porn/gossip magazine that made a quarter of its cover about the French equivalent of the Daily Stormer

and it's
"**DISGUSTING**
RACISM
ANTISEMITISM
HOMOPHOBIA
**A SHAMEFUL WEBSITE**
[and here comes some quotes from the website, __on the cover__ 🤣 ]
Ariane Bordier
"the coal burner" [it's actually worse since in French it's like "whore of niggers"]
Jack Lang
"the disgusting kike"
Blaise Matuidi
"the excremental nigger"
Pamela Anderson
"Maghreb's cumrag"
**LET'S FIGHT TOGETHER TO BAN IT**

Jesus christ.

AHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHHAHA

Some things are simply better said in languages other than English. Lol

A picture I took whilst hiking in Wales.

Ive started a YouTube channel dedicated to the traditional catholic aesthetics and lifestyle to make it look as appealing as possible. Here’s the first video I made. https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=9mhIb5ZdvNY

Some more aesthetics lads. Please disregard modernism in the basilica. San Juan must be reclaimed from these heretics.

speaking of swastikas

Our Lady of the Burg, in Rabastens (France)

the outside is pretty nice too

🙏

I love them

Lmao at natsoc pagans

Swastika was originally a christian symbol

Nazis would have revived chritianity

To its former greatness

Instead we get sad americans who chill it to black niggers (devils)

The hatred of Christianity in amongst the highest ranking members of the German government was seething.

Don't kid yourself, they were by no means allies to the Church.

Not really, just many nazis were tolerant with pagang and christians because they knew whats actually important to fight against

That meme was so obviously made by a pagan trying to contain his dislike of Christianity

I think it was christian, because vikängs had no horns 😠

Epic

1 life is about 7 130$

He made it lads

Painting with the so called 'Stalingradmadonna'

Is regular OC art allowed

Is that a jewish bird

Nah, the beak's not hooked enough.

The beak starts in a small circle form the face, then becomes far wider. Needs changing

Also, the wing needs to be bigger towards the end. As in the reference, the wing goes around the body and covers it

It’s a thing I’m doing for a comic

i've been posting doodles I do occasionally

That's pretty good.

Thank you!

Really early WIP, almost untextured scene I have in mind

That icon bad boy has its own metalness/roughness map for maximum realism

Post pics of your church thread

is it bad to say a church looks comfy? Because that one kinda does.

it's like the platonic ideal of what a reverent atmosphere would be

It's close, but there aren't enough icons.

The icons are primarily downstairs in the room for confession

There is a wall of them down there.

There are statues in each of those small corners on the right and left that cannot be seen in the photo

Also unable to be seen are the Heavenly host wood carvings and the wood carving of the Last Supper

The ceiling in the very front is also full of symbols that cannot be seen in the photo

There's a lot more that gets lost here, such as front wall art, side wall icons, narthex art, icons and art in the side rooms, etc. This is also not during a mass of course, so we don't have liturgical candles lit.

In greek churches, all the Church's wall are painted with icons. It's really great. @Quarantine_Zone

@Karu churches are supposed to be comfy

at least in my mind

what could be more comforting than the presence of God

Churches aren't supposed to be creepy and imposing

I went to a catholic church out of hours when nothing was lit once

Statues in shadows are creepy, man

Uhh... You want clowns and guitars putting the fear of God in you?

Thing is even in the dark, iconography is cozy

especially with some candles

Mother of God the Warrior

I bought this icon just now

Whoa. That's something. I like it.

I too always picture Mary as a High-Middle Ages knight with a cross

I recommened this translated page describing the history of the icon

St Joseph with the Christ child

Sankt Niklaus von Flüe

Tomb of St. Stephen the Great, Prince of Moldavia, cousin of Vlad the Impaler

Wow. I can really see the family resemblance.

> inb4 "muh divine simplicity" cannot fathom 1 Jn. 4:12 and Jn 1:18 being compatible

did you just write that the father is the essence?

Difference between divine simplicity and absolute divine simplicity bruh

Divine simplicity is not a concept that accepts gradation. It's a very simple concept.

The entire upper part, with the graph, is labelled as "essence"
