I am not really religious at all but something about the Basilica at Assisi made me feel something that I never felt anywhere else I have visited. Hard to describe, I sort of felt lighter after visiting. I sense of calm that maybe the closest I've felt was after a long session of guided meditation.



I built the Basilica in Second Life in 2007, eventually getting a job at Amazon [0].
