RE: Lincoln Museums/Attractions
Amazing - thanks for sharing. Did you perhaps also take a photo of the pew?
The gothic reminds me of the Aachen and other Cathedrals, the frankinsense smells and bells and the Catholic worshipping of saints I've experienced there that to me seeing a statue of a politician or worldly human in a church feels a bit out of place. I've never seen other depictions than those of saints and Biblical figures in a Christian church, and as much as I admire Abraham Lincoln, truth to be told I'm not sure I like it as for either side. The church is a sacral place to worship, and IMO one shouldn't worship humans. There are enough other ways and places to honor humans. Please notice this is my very personal opinion from my very personal background. |
