World Religions and Places of Worship
Religious expression The avowal of Money should be worn out(p) helping people, not decorating a localize of holiness is a precise controversial one. It could either be true or false, depending on the place, cadence and size of the church. It is completely true that the bills used for decorating a place of fear such as a church or a mosque could be better-spent helping people as mentioned in the previous statement. However, I agree and take issue with this statement to certain extents.I agree because, taking Christianity and churches as an example, it is taught in the bible that modesty is an important aspect of life that mustiness be met. However, many churches seem to do the exact opposite. Decorating their w onlys with paintings, using stain glass windows and placing gold crosses within the church. Other religions such as Islam in like manner spend a lot of money on the interior and exterior decoration of mosques. Filling them with golden calligraphy and a number of m in arts that are all expensively done.This money could have been used to help the less(prenominal) fortunate and other people who are in need of fiscal aid. I disagree due to the following reasons firstly with places of worship being fancily decorated, expensively or not, it increases the amount of respect people have to that place. It as well as shows respect to, in some religions, god or the person of worship for that religion. Taking the Notre Dame as an example, the amount of money it brings to the tourism of France is extremely high. People visit it for pilgrimage, examining its intricate architecture and design and even to repent.The unornamented money this church brings in could help the less fortunate in many ways. Thus proving the previous statement controversial. Secondly, the aim of showing god the sacrifices and financial efforts that were made to his satisfaction and in satisfaction of his worshipers. This reduces the effect that the statement has on the decoration of places of worship. In conclusion, I both agree and disagree with the statement of money should be spent helping people, not decorating a place of worship.Due to the numerous reasons and examples above and taking into consideration the briny point of money that could have been spent helping people, spent on decorating a church that would positively impact the economy of a untaught and then helping people. The statement could work both ways, and if the place of worship was properly decorated, attracting enough people to it, it can gain enough money to help people in need of help and improving their lives from all aspects is possible.
