they have them in parts of earth where magority worship, so we should start anywhere.
outdoors shrines in some countries (mainly india) would be good.

Christ, Saint and Angel Shrines.

Answer 1

I'm not a Christian, but I'm all for building shrines for the Gods and Goddesses, just as you describe. They are wonderful and you can add fresh flowers, or a bowl of fresh water everyday, as well as the incense as a gift. (notice I didn't say offering)

Answer 2

Oh yes. What a wonderful idea. My church would say it was "evil" but I dont agree with them. Its really just a sort of compacted temple isnt it? I wouldnt make one outside. Id make it in my house, or at least sheltered in a gazebo or something. To be a good shrine it needs some holy relic, but thats probably herd to track down... at least holy water or a crucifix or something. I also think it would be good to have a multi-religious shrine. Then anyone could pray to who/whatever they want. Atheists could even set up a shrine to scientific enlightenment or somthing (not joking) so they were included.

Yeah - Id do that if I had funds.

Answer 3

Those who control the place of worship controls money and power of whatever the flock brings forth.

There is more of any God or Goddess in a single drop of morning dew than there is in any edifice built by humans.

Answer 4

babylon what, i think if a shrine helps you contact god then go to it, bu maybe a cross and praying is fine,

Answer 6
