That although Jerusalem is beautiful and interesting, it is not a “holy site” for Christians, because all that stands today is what was built during the Crusades, it is really a museum for the Crusade architecture. \u00a0We don’t get any “closer to God b<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
