Not to mention, above all this clamour or slandor and rant, the pentagram/pentacle is inverted.
I read somewhere that the pentagram was never really associated with evil, only slightly in misconception during the Inquisition years, or the Witch Hunt years. Later, in the 19th century, it was related to evil when a Mr. Eliphas Levi illustrated the upright pentagram of microcosmic man beside an inverted pentagram with the goats head of Baphomet.

The pentagram has a long history of usage in many cultures and beliefs: Ancient Mesopotamia, Hebrews, Greeks, Gnostics, Druids, Egypt, Pagan Cults, Medieval Christians and even Christian Emperor Constantine I.
Today, it is well known by neo-pagans and wiccans as a powerful symbol that aids them in thier ways.
The majority of society often regards any form of the pentagram/pentacle as a symbol of evil and desicration.
Heavy Metal bands (death metal) such as Slayer and others have often used the pentagram as a decal for their cover albums.
And of course horror movies and the sort have also attributed the pentagram with evil, due to heightened interest in the genre of popular FICTION movies.
I once saw a Japanese movie use a pentagram, it was based in the emperial eras. It was heavily based on occult nature. The movie was "Onmyoji".

Aside from all that mumbo jumbo, I like the picture very much.

It does resemble a chapel, but now in its ruined state, it looks very intrigueing. The sort of thing that fictional writers could get an inspiration from just looking at it once.

When the main supports are rotted or if there isn't anything reasonably solid to walk on I'll hold off, it depends on what's underneath and if there is anything cool to see beyond that point.

How could you see a light at night that is actually daytime sunlight filtering through a decayed roof inside a building nowhere near the road?
