Thankfully, I didn't come across this "church" while in Austria. A reader did. This might have broken my lenses. Catholic parish of St. Luke's in Graz. Ground control to Major Tom....
By the way, while looking at this #$@!, keep in mind that is the diocese where Fr. Ibounigg got into hot water and was publicly scolded by the diocese for getting rid of the "people's altar" that was forced on a baroque church. Just so you know.

Well, Muslims worship a meteorite, so perhaps they’re just getting ready for assimilation.

The altar/meteorite is a real hoot. It looks like it came out of God’s nose.

Algore must have designed this church -- I think that's one of his old Lock-boxes.

This looks like the dining area at a science museum (next to the gift shop...)

*shrugs* It may not be to my taste, but I don't see anything wrong with it. I kind of like it when different Churches have different personalities - unlike, e.g. the "multifaith" religious centers in Columbia, MD and all the boring sameness of most newer churches.

Interesting way for a church to piss away money that might be better spent.
