Whether its Pompeii, Paletine Hill, or the magnificent statue of Athena inside the Parthenon, its gets really frustrating not being able to see antiquity in all its splendor because the ancient Christians destroyed the monuments and edifices to melt down for their churches.
Credit where it is due, there are some magnificent churches in Europe, but I also have a feeling of sameness with many of them. Once you've seen a few, they begin to blur together. The unique and irreplaceable icons of European civilization were destroy by an proto-Bolshevism of antiquity.
