I just don't get it

This might be the saddest thing I ever read. Here’s this guy, 81 years old. Building this cathedral all by himself. No one who could help in any major way wants anything to do with it. A bunch of people want to tear it down. All he’s got is faith, scattered minor support, and notariety. It’s remarkable, the photo of this place. It looks pretty beautiful to me. Moreso because it’s made from scrap and love. If I could help, I’d want to help by hauling bricks and forming concrete and bolting supports. Since I can’t do that, I’ll just hope that he’s able to reach his goal of completing this pretty impressive structure, and that SOMEONE vouches for it. I consider it a marvel strictly based on the circumstances. The offhand dismissal that this endeavor is being shown is both disheartening and shocking.
Hang in there Justo. I’m rooting for you.
