[QUOTE=SamPerson123;21418467]Additionally, due to the slave labor needed to build the pyramids, the ancient Egyptian religion arguably had as many negative effects as the Christian religion.[/QUOTE]
The slave labor aspect of the construction of the pyramids is a widely believed myth. The vast majority of laborers came as part of a religious experience and worked voluntarily.
I don't think one could possibly argue that the ancient Egyptian faiths had near the impact, positive or negative, that Christianity did.
Man, I hate my country. :frown:

You're so cool and now everyone respects you and knows you well on these forums.

[QUOTE=Luuper;21416452]Any religion behind this does not matter. This statue was a testament to human engineering and it was a shame that it was vandalized.[/QUOTE]
Now it's a testament to Dadaism.

[QUOTE=lionhatkid;21416383]Doesn't really matter, regardless, they will still believe in a false religion.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=siberpredaht;21417185]you think this is art? it is a symbol of the church's power over the world. it's on a mountain for christ's sake overlooking everything.
the church is an organization of systematic child molestations that is covered up and allowed to continue because people are so ignorant and naive
this is nothing more than a symbol for child molestation and ignorance. it isn't art work. it's propaganda[/QUOTE]
You're either lying or you didn't read the thread.
That statue was impressive, as an atheist, who fucking cares if it was of Christ, still a badass/monumental statue.

Holy tits, you need to relax.
Go eat a sandwich or something.
He's just wearing make-up to rebel against his father.
child sex crimes in the world are VASTLY under reported and a lot of them happen to take place in churches
these vatican sick fucks go to these latin american countries to work in missionaries and end up fucking /fondling little boys. the pope himself even has accusations of this from his time in some latin american country.
now as for it being art? yeah, i appreciate art. i love art. but a lot of art has to do with the message. i am sorry, but a giant statue of christ screams to me, "child molestation", "hate crimes", "bigotry", "racism", "sexism" and "ignorance."
i respect free speech and the freedom of those to express themselves in anyway they chose, but that doesn't mean i won't enjoy the fact that someone vandalized a statue that's simply a symbol for all those things i listed above
Reminds me of the Fantoft Stave Church arson in Norway. Legitimate ideology or not, you don't ruin shit that looks cool.
I was expecting the vandals to have drawn a huge moustache on it :saddowns:
I am dissapointed at the lack of moustache/glasses.

Sounds like the christian version of Duke Nukem
If they would've sprayed something cool on the statue it could've been cool. But freaking tags? That's just lame.
wow they could have madeit more complex or something
lost it in 'nam

See if it were Banksy I'd be impressed.
Looks like christ was sprayed alot.
I ain't too concerned about whatever disrespect for religion was behind this, but I am pissed at the fact that someone vandalised such a wonderful piece of artwork.
