A 90 foot tall statue of a Hindu monkey-faced god now resides near Houston, Texas. Our Pilgrim fore-fathers are rolling in their graves.

Looked it up. Here’s the wiki article. TL,DR;

Not my first choice of statuary. But I will say that Indian immigrants are some of the most patriotic and hard working folks I have ever met.

Ooooooh wow. A “visionary” is behind this and he is call his holiness. The statue just sprung up out of nowhere. So who paid for this abomination?

Yes, it is horrendous, but before we begin getting all smug about sculptures produced by Western artists... it is slightly better than many pieces shoved in the public's face by woke "art aficionados". This bronze sculpture found in the Des Moines Art Center Permanent Collections is either a Penis or the Leaning Tower Of Turd... You Be The Judge.

It is installed on the north central grounds of the Sculpture Park, along Grand Avenue, between 13th and 15th Streets in Downtown Des Moines, IA 50309

Its interesting, perhaps, to note that the backers of this and most overt Hindu temples and other such constructions are the conservative and largely pro-Trump parts of the US Hindu community.

They are the “religious right” of Hindus.

The Hindu/Indian left (Democrat voters) are rarely religious. The Hindu left in the US heavily outnumbers the Hindu right.

Yes bring back idol worship. Why not. 😆

Their property and their money, what’s the problem ?

Don’t like it , too bad champ, move along, nothing to see but some busy body.

Of course you could build your own statue , but, something tells me that you won’t. Mrs. kravitz , is that you ?

[LadyDoc]

this is the shape changing monkey king, not a god originally. He risked his life to help get back Sita after she was kidnapped, so is a hero in ancient Indian literature.

And it is being put up in a temple, not on public land.

The tallest statues in the World.

Well, the satanists have a goat headed god now there is a monkey god to join him. Wonder if it’s parents got monkey pox by the monkey. Soon maybe an elephant headed god.

Romans 1:25
24Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: 25Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

Just what America needs. A giant idol for an alien people to worship.

There’s progress for you. Or not.
