Personally, I struggle to reconcile the message of the church with its wealth. How can you preach giving to the poor and helping the needy while decorating the interior of churches around the world with solid gold? With that said, I visit churches around the world because the art and architecture is often the best in town (another check for hypocrisy). San Francisco church in Quito is no exception and it's free to enter. #free #history #gold #art #moorish #church #christian #hypocrisy
