This is a Mayan church
It was built as a Catholic Church, and the Maya still say they’re Catholic
But the Vatican says they’re not Catholic just because they sacrifice live chickens in the church
And the floor is covered with pine needles
And they think coca-cola is ceremonial.
We weren’t allowed to take pictures inside, but it was mostly candles and statues. There’s no gaudy neon Mary like the approved Catholic church.
The animal sacrifice isn’t really much stranger than the human body parts considered relics by the Catholic church. One church’s pine needles is another church’s Palm Sunday. And Coca-Cola is just good drinkin’.
