	Why temples? Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

Copied from the 850bc thread:

quote: About temples... A temple in Vigo will expand the borders to the point that these two coastal guards are no more needed there to watch possible foreign ships coming to our land. I think that worths it. Also a temple in Toledo (after the current worker) would give us the silk monopoly and make any ND attempt to settle a city near the silk a war declaration. Silk monopoly can prove very profitable for us... Last but not least, please remember that we are engaged in a culuture war in the north, an that we need to keep our culture production to prevent our cities for flipping to the enemy side.

Si! And, remember that the temple being constructed in Vigo will be the first built for our Lord. All older temples are of course conversions from older more barbaric faiths. Thus the citizens of Vigo can proudly shout from the temple tower that we have the first true church!

Temples? You must be Churches.

The Great Temple of Madrid is currently being renovated into a Church, by the way. Hopefully, we shall have a Cathedral before long...and better yet...perhaps our King would take me up on my plans for a certain Sistine Chapel?

The culture will spread along with the good news.

Temples? Sure, for saving souls. But I anticipate that some think already of all means to save money through petty business in the temples ...

To supplement the Temple, Spain must man both the City and the Temple with the truest of followers to ensure that no 'conversions' take place to or from the lands North of us. A Temple that is not properly staffed is not as wholly effective otherwise.

It is a moment of pride for Spain!
Our cities burstle with people! And our proud citizens expand north! The beautifull villages and the happiness in their simple life... make me feel like moving to a calm farm on the north... far from any kind of political games and of worries...
The town´s church, is a mark, forth it will be a central building, to gather the citizens, to unite their hearts in the faith, to create the feeling of an unified comunity, ones taking care of others...
The holiness of a farmer´s life...
Our Lord was a simple man from the fields...
Pardon me the tears, gentlemen...

Amen, truly, I say to you, Cardinal, He was but a mere carpenter's son, and He died as though He were a criminal, but He crucified our sins with Him on that cross, and rose again, showing that He was God.

The good news spreads...the whole world must rejoice...the Savior has come!

Señor Calamari, I certainly agree with your vision. A very big temple (or, how did you call it, cathedral) with no equal in all the world dedicated to pray the All-mighty. I can see that pilgrims from all Terra Nostra, and also from the other continents, will come to pray to the Lord God. I think that Spain should seriously consider the construction of such a building.

OOC: The Sistine Chapel is our wonder!!!

I know exactly who'd be superb for the painting, too...

That's right!!

Gastronome Neecap has been studying art now for the past two years! He's moving into crayons, and...

Hey! Go away, Michelangelo! Can't you see I'm trying to speak?!
