Flagler's Gnostic Architecture


Before mankind learned to build housing structures for shelter, mankind first learned how to erect monuments to worship the gods and the elements.

i.e.- Stonehenge, The tower of Babel, etc.

Many of us gaze in awe at some of the impressive features of any cathedral, church, or basilica that gives respect to the one true Christian God. This, needless to say, is not the same for the FLAGLER PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH in St. Augustine, Florida. Flagler's church seems to pay reverence to another type of god, the gnostic false-god.

The Flagler Presbyterian church claims to be modeled after the St. Mark's cathedral in Venice, Italy. St. Mark's bolsters extravagant Christian artwork of immense proportion and detail, while in Flagler's church any depictions of Christ are...vague or non-existent. The ceiling of Flagler's church also depicts a painting that can be found on the 21st Tarot card that is labeled, "The World". And the woman holding the two wands on the card have been replaced by a Quabbalistic sigil, that simply is referred to in mysticism as, "The magic wand".

Among many other fine details, such as a black eagle in trade of a crucifix at the alter, the Flagler Presbyterian church is anything but reverent to the one true God. The stale funk of MASONIC and GNOSTIC presence is the only thing that can be felt inside the tomb of the initiate...
Sorry, the Flagler Presbyterian church.

Flagler's church is amazingly beautiful indeed, unlike so many churches here that are just plain looking and unappealing, not to mention absolutely lacking in spirit and mystery.
