    The Armenian Churches that are in Armenia are far more beautiful than the ones that were built outside of the country. Off course they are far older and have more history and character! I'm always disappointed with churches of any denomination in the USA, as they are rather uninspiring and leave the viewer indifferent to their presence.

    We shall not cease from exploration
    And the end of all our exploring
    Will be to arrive where we started
    And know the place for the first time.
