re: #435 Decatur Deb

You once asked about Catholics and the Vatican in a similar discussion. The Catholics traditionally consider the Church of theHoly Sepulchre, in the Old City, the most important site in the world. That’s why it could be used as the recruiting poster for the crusades. (Places, even the ‘most important’, are not as important as they are in other religions, though.)

Oh dear, you brought up THAT discussion! heh Well I was trying to impart the importance of other religions and their holy places, but no, I didn’t realize that the Church of the Holy Sepluchre was more important than the Vatican. Is that something all Catholics recognize? I was in that church and was amazed by it. In fact, it’s the only part of non-Jewish Israel that I have a vivid memory of. Quite impressive.
