FULL TITLE: Catholic school is forced to cover up a brand new statue after 'unfortunate' design showing a kneeling boy and a saint
A Catholic boys school has been forced to cover up a brand new statue after a rather unfortunate design created a storm on social media.
Blackfriars Priory School in Adelaide last week unveiled a statue of St Dominic handing a young boy a loaf of bread.
However the design featuring a boy kneeling at the foot of the 12th century Spanish-born saint has caused embarrassment to the inner-city school, which teaches boys from kindergarten to year 12.

I'm refraining from posting the picture of said statue. I'm afraid this thread will be pulled whether I post it or not, so click the link while you can.

Whoever erected this statue must have not been using his head.

How could no one have seen this? The designer almost likely did this on purpose.

This is actually a pretty common image. But now with the New Gay Church of Francis, I could see that it might cause a freak out.

Would be celebrated in many coastal lib enclaves. Of course this was intentional.

Exactly. It looks like a loaf of bread. If one has a dirty mind, or someone told me I should have a dirty mind, it looks like something else

Whoever erected this statue must have not been using his head. No, he was using his bread for the erection.
