Beauty? How very pagan.

God's love for us is beautiful. His sacrifice of His only Son on the cross is beautiful. The Holy Sacraments are beautiful. His promise of Salvation and Everlasting Life is beautiful.

Yes, but Christianity is not about the worship of "Beauty" as if it is some disembodied greek goddess.

We worship a God who is beautiful - not the god of "Beauty".

Catholics also have a set of enemies to make us look very good. Thank you, Jesus!
