I am overwhelmed by the ceilings of most churches, but this is to an even greater degree. I have actually never seen anything quite like it. The columns and the ceiling seem to go up forever, I crane my neck to try to take it all in. I see the confessionals all have signs with languages written on them. I guess each priest here speaks three or four different languages. That is impressive. Or is it that they only have to be able to absolve people of their sins in a few different languages. Is that what it is? Sometimes my understanding of Catholicism gets a little funny.
