(That was pretty obvious from the get go). That again, the Orthodox aren't huge fans of 'sacred geometry' either. (Probably because our churches are lavishly decorated with icons on the one hand; and because our theology states that we can know God directly and intimately, without being 'obliged' to 'necessarily' contemplate either nature, or our own reason, in order to do that). The depiction of God with a triangular aura is common-place, and the inverted triangle is an artistic touch... but the presence of the simple hexagram on the floor of the Church there bugs me (a possible former synagogue? Did many Jews live in that area? I honestly have no idea).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
