Great Whore of Babylon Lusts for Crystal Cathedral

Sorry. I just could not resist that headline. But the Roman Catholic Diocese of Orange is among the bidders for the bankrupt Crystal Cathedral.

And given the sordid state of church architecture today, buying a cathedral may be a better move than building a new one.

Can you think of a good Roman Catholic (saint or doctrinal) name for it? Santa Lucia's?

The old saying about glass houses comes to mind in regard to the Crystal Cathedral.

Saint Anne/ Santa Anna is very appropriate.

Saint Francis de Sales would work, too.
