Cute statue. Seems perfect for a zoo.
To: StolarStorm
Fortunately, people in Asia treat them better than they are treated in Africa. They are magnificent creatures.
I would support the Christian group but I think the statute is pretty harmless and not too Hindu.

I like it, it reminds me of Tom Delay doing the cha-cha.
But I'd be hesitant if it were a camel wearing a bomb best.
Maybe I'll sculpt a statue of a jackass with teleprompters and donate that to their collection.

Half tempted to save that image, just in case I ever get a Republican congress-critter who cuts his own office budget rather than spending federal money faster than Ted Kennedy on a bender.

May be it’s more of a religious zealots thing, than a nationality thing.

This is a result of people who romanticize other cultures, and consider them simply ‘cute’. Liberals sometimes forget that some statues symbolize religious icons that akin to putting a statue in Christian tradition. Ask them to put the statue of Patmos Eagle.

Concerned Christians CanadaFor crying out loud. These folks are as bad as the offended Muslims or offended atheists.

Tell them it's a Republican Icon, they'll ban it so fast it'll make your head spin!

For crying out loud. These folks are as bad as the offended Muslims or offended atheists. No they're not.
Muslims would have killed somebody and the atheists would have compelled removal by the courts.
Nice try, though.
