OT: Parisians celebrate Easter at St. Eustace

With Notre Dame in shambles, Parisian Catholics must make do with whatever is at hand: St. Eustache: just an ordinary Catholic church - rather plain compared to the soaring, heart-stopping, mind-melting edifices produced by mormon architects.


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint-Eustache,_Paris#/media/File:St.-Eustache.jpg


The name of the church refers to Saint Eustace, a Roman general of the second century AD who was burned, along with his family, for converting to Christianity


/S (for those who need it)

Wow that is a pretty church! Looks to be around the same age as Notre Dame. Hope it has sprinklers and Smoke detectors.

What a lovely church. Far from ordinary, even by Catholic standards

Personally. I'd avoid any Christian churches in France since they have been under constant attack.

One Catholic priest was knifed to death right at the altar in one church.
Another church was smeared all over with feces.

There have been over 800 attacks against Christian churches in France.

Why do you always exaggerate Elyse?

France is not in the state of open warfare you so frequently describe. I know, I live there, I have Christian colleagues...

Where do you get your incorrect information and why do you try to spread it?
