“I went to my first Mass,” he said. The very interior of the church shouted of difference — the stained glass, the bright colors of the priest’s vestments, the statuary.

That's what attracts most Catholics...It just 'reeks' with religiousness...

It's very right to want to dedicate beautiful things to God --- stained glass windows, magnificent art and architecture, and all the rest of it.

That's why there are pages and pages n the Books o Moses about the splendid adornments of the Temple in Jerusalem.

People consider it fitting to give their best to God. This is not to be mocked.
