Interpreting Kay's Post

When you walked into that chapel Kay, you felt like you were at home because of the strange, psychosymatic feeling that you got from being in a holy place. You must have felt as though the mere presence of this holy place was enough to expunge the ambivalence of the day. Being in the presence of something which is sanctified suddenly makes us believe that we are somehow in the presence of a higher power and that goodness and strength are being inserted into us. The spiritual feeling of a chapel could be compared to the dread felt in a graveyard at night. There is nothing going on, its only our senses playing with us, as well as the constant portrayal of the spirituality of these places in the media. When we are in a chapel we convince ourselves that everything will be alright and that we have been given something enlightening. The truth is that the strength you recieved was there all along, it only needed a chord to be struck so that it could reveal itself. Seeing how you had a terrible day, its no coincidence that you were drawn to the chapel. Many people go to such holy places when they find themselves with an emotional conundrum. Religious belief flourishes in times of crisis. During the medieval era the Catholic Church experienced a massive growth in converts. This was because life was so shitty that people needed an experience and a confirmation that their life would change for the better. When you had your terrible day Kay, the feelings you felt were changed and even magnified by being in the chapel. In a time of crisis religious experience took its strongest hit at you, and won with a K.O.
