Have you built a cathedral or composed a symphony like Mozart’s rendition of Ave Verum Corpus lately? Even Evangelicals have something to glean from Catholicism’s contributions to uplift the human spirit and beautify culture.

No. And nor do I have to.

A great number of the very pretty buildings in Europe are vacant or just tourist attractions.

Somehow the Gospel was able to be spread in the Roman Empire without aid of all of Roman Catholicism's "contributions".

Which does nothing towards the salvation of souls.

Jesus told us to go and make disciples.

He was not into ostentatiousness.

Mark 13:1-2 And as he came out of the temple, one of his disciples said to him, “Look, Teacher, what wonderful stones and what wonderful buildings!” And Jesus said to him, “Do you see these great buildings? There will not be left here one stone upon another that will not be thrown down.”
