The first represents the clear view of what the church is and what it stands for and is about. Those that take this view see the good and the bad in the church and the people in it.
The middle two represent the view of the church that is distorted. Hidden behind all the misunderstandings and problems people have with the people who have committed sins who are associated with the church. The gold dome represents their thoughts that their is still good in the church but it is hidden. Diminished by the dark cloud cast by the misdeeds of some priests and the leadership.
The last represents those that believe the church is evil. The light coming from behind it represents God. Visualizing the idea that some people see the Catholic church as being this dark evil thing that actually blocks God's truth and light which is coming from behind the structure in this photo.
Just for the record I didn't thunk of any of this while taking these photos but as I was posting them all together I am also listening to someone discuss the video from YouTube "I hate religion but love Jesus". That's what inspired this interpretation.
