[QUOTE="yourturntoloveit, post: 263342, member: 57"]Hmmm, I'm not so sure that I would "dismiss" the stained glass windows as being "not religious." The white flower (rose) is a symbol of "purity" (Virgin Mary). And, perhaps more to the question of secular or religious, there are two apples (albeit "yellow" apples) in one panel (think Garden of Eden). And there are two hands each holding a loaf of bread (think "the Last Supper") and holy communion (in commemoration of the Last Supper).[/QUOTE]
