Not Sacred...or Divine... just, UGLY.

There are those that say, "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder." Well, I believe that there should always be some intrinsic aesthetic value to "art"; Religious art should most definitely have such an intrinsic value.

Quite a few blogs such as: WDTPRS? and Sancte Pater have posted a picture from a foreign website Fides et Forma of a church called Santa Monica. It looks like this:


Now Father Z, and Vincenzo say that the church, from its profile looks a lot like a Sandcrawler from Star Wars. 



Personally, I think it looks more like an Everlasting Gobstopper from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. Regardless... it doesn't look like a Church.
