What the Holy have achieved
Despite
people arguing religion and God and whether one exists; no-one can doubt the
amount of effort that goes into building a cathedral. These monumental
structures reach into the sky as a sign of devotion to the commitment of their
faith. Inside, there’s plenty of history to see; whether it’s the tomb of
families gone by; or the shrine of a saint; however artificial or plastic the
refurbishment has become. The architecture inside is a document of the faith of
the people and what Christianity means for them. Beneath the arches and
corridors are the archives of the people and what they have done for the local
community, whether they were a builder, doctor, clergyman or soldier. For me,
it’s a sense of achievement as to what people can achieve. If man can build
such a beautiful building with tools from over five hundred years ago; just
think what else we can do today.
