I was visiting Montreal with most of my family on vacation this week and we ran into a large looking church in the middle of the city. It was UMC.  The first thing we were greeted with where LGBT placards reminding us that all are welcome....then in the center of the altar...what did we see?

Was it a beautiful and large altar, perhaps with flowers laid as a sacrifice on the front edge of the altar?

What it an appropriately large and beautiful tabernacle?

No it was a big dark organ, front and center.   There just wasn't any life to be found.

Dark, dank, self-focused. 

Yesterday we were in Quebec City and saw this.
