Cathedral St.John
used to have a Rerdo;but Cramm (Ralph Adams) took it down
when the interior architecture  went from Romanesque to Gothic
it faced the Narthex ...and it took a codex  read by a priest in spandex to
get it indexed where you can google it on pixnex .......the problem is
isn't the high alter supposed to face east ??? or is it placed in the east
so the parishoners face east?;
I know in Christian burials you bury the body facing east;
and in Masonic ritual the master of the lodge sits in the east;
and Mao always went on about the East (said it was red and so on)
I used to live on East 10th near the Russian baths;
It was east but it wasn't red
and  my commode  (which was also my library)  faced east...
..the redo by the way faced west
but was located in the east near the high alter;
maybe Ruth has a rerdo and can't see the Narthex ?? maybe thats the whole
problem in a nutshell ........Py
