This photo was taken in a Rome church and truth be told, it could have been taken in any Rome church. This is how "modern" we have tried to become. And future generations will laugh at us.

Talk about disappointing. Are actual candles really a fire hazard?
I'm a graduate student and tour operator living in Rome, Italy. Life is good. Studium Urbis! P.S. To know history is to be Catholic. P.P.S. Schedule your tour with us while in Rome.

Real candles are far better.
I think the plastic candles are sad. Give me wax and flame any day!
Thank the Lord that I attend a beautiful, traditional Catholic church....
So you say many of Rome's churches only offer those horrible electric votive "lights"!?
The vast majority of Rome churches have only these.
Love electric candles especially a wonky big six with the ribbon flex on the side of the candlestick and two tapers to fulfil the rubric
San Silvestro in Capite?
