World Religions and Places of Worship

unearthly expression The statement of Money should be spent component part pile, non decorating a place of idolisation is a very controversial one. It could both be true or false, depending on the place, time and size of the church service. It is all told true that the gold used for decorating a place of worship such(prenominal) as a church or a mosque could be better-spent aid people as mentioned in the previous statement. However, I agree and protest with this statement to certain extents.I agree because, taking Christianity and churches as an example, it is taught in the record book that modesty is an important aspect of life that must be met. However, some churches seem to do the exact opposite. Decorating their walls with paintings, using stained glass windows and placing fortunate crosses within the church. Other religions such as Islam also spend a lot of money on the interior and exterior laurel of mosques. pickax them with golden calligraphy and a number of minarets that are all expensively done.This money could have been used to help the less fortunate and other(a) people who are in need of financial aid. I disaccord 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 also shows respect to, in some religions, god or the person of worship for that religion. Taking the Notre annulus as an example, the amount of money it brings to the tourism of France is extremely high. People look it for pilgrimage, examining its intricate architecture and design and even to repent.The extra money this church brings in could help the less fortunate in many ways. thence proving the previous statement controversial. Secondly, the aim of showing god the sacrifices and financial efforts that were make to his satisfaction and in satisfaction of his worshipers. This reduces the effect that the statement has on the decoration of places o f 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 main point of money that could have been spent helping people, spent on decorating a church that would positively impact the economy of a country and then helping people. The statement could work both ways, and if the place of worship was properly decorated, attracting abundant people to it, it can gain enough money to help people in need of help and improving their lives from all aspects is possible.
