I visited Boston in November this year. One of the most places I was deeply impressed was the Northen Square and a magnificent building of the Sacred Heart Catholic Church. One thing I was surprised. It was a five pointed star above Christ statue on it`s facade. I was born in the USSR and for me, as for all people from the USSR, such a star is a symbol of communism. Of course, it has a different meaning in this place. I really want to know what is the meaning. Thank you in advance for your answer. Yana.
