The difference between Protestant and Catholic Church decoration is great and varied and I should liken it to the difference between a donut and a French Gateaux. One is simple and the other is quite complex; each one reflecting the Theology that prevails in the institution. This is reflected in all aspects of the building; so, the richer the Tradition more elaborate the building.
