Posted on 11/15/2004 10:09:41 PM PST by goldstategopHere is a description of the seal of Los Angeles County.
There are six small panels, three going up and down each side of the seal's central figure.
Top left: engineering instruments.
Middle left: a Spanish galleon.
Bottom left: a tuna representing the fishing industry.
Top right: oil derricks.
Middle right: the Hollywood Bowl, along with two stars representing the movie industry and one small cross.
Bottom right: a prize cow.
The central figure, the largest object on the seal: Pomona, the Roman goddess of gardens and fruit trees.
Anything disturb you enough to demand that the seal be redesigned?
Probably not. For the overwhelming majority of millions of citizens of Los Angeles County over the past 50 years, this seal has aroused no opposition. But a few months ago, someone with a magnifying glass at the American Civil Liberties Union discovered that the smallest item on the seal was a cross. And in its aim to expunge any trace of Christianity and God from American public life, the ACLU brought this fact to the attention of the five Los Angeles County supervisors.
The three liberals on the board were equally horrified, and voted within days to erase the cross and redesign the seal, which now depicts a building with no Christian symbol in place of the cross...CLICK HERE for the rest of that thread
Bump
From the title I thought I was clicking about a smelly fish destroyer that habituates boat docks and craps all over them!
Did you try a Google Image Search?EXCELLENT, mvpel!The search term "taliban buddha destruction" comes up with fourteen images.
Would you post some of the BETTER images here?
Yes, I am looking for something exactly like that!!!Can you find any MORE?
It has been suggested that the Masons in America are different from those in Europe. It's very difficult to be certain about the beliefs of the top people in secret societies, but I'd be inclined to agree that there may be something in this.
The Europeans Masons were, and apparently still are, an anti-Catholic, anti-Christian, conspiratorial organization. In America many of our leading patriots and religious figures, from George Washington on down, have been Masons. Their motives and behavior appear to differ from European Masons.
Knee-jerk anti-Catholicism has been a significant strain in America from the founding until recent times, when the Protestant establishment based on the mainline Churches ceased to be predominantly Christian and mostly turned liberal and secular. Although American Masons in the past may have been anti-Catholic like most other Americans, I don't think Masonry was in the forefront of American anti-Catholicism.
When only the initiated inner circle at the top of the organization knows what it's real purpose is, then the whole organization can change its actual purpose and start identifying with its public and not its covert purpose. I think (but there's no way to know for sure) that that may have been what happened to American Masonry.
O.K., yes -- "seal" (the marine animal) pictures are O.K. on this thread, too. :o)Humor can be VERY effective.Post away!
Let's concentrate our fire (on THIS thread, anyway) on the REAL enemy: the God-less ACLU!
I had the parties for two of my kid's Catholic baptisms in two different Masonic temples.
They were very nice to me both times, even though they knew exactly what I was up to.
They do control the weather though.
Try google or yahoo.
...as I need to be OFF-LINE now -- for a while. :(Perhaps some others here could post some good "smashing Buddha" images in my absence. :o)
Sorry, I got distracted by earlier comments.
I don't think the politicians have a moral right to change something like a state seal, with a long and honorable history, without having some very good reason. Unlike banana republics and countries that experience constant revolutions, America is not in the habit of changing its flags, seals, or symbols on the whims of politicians.
Their reasons would seem to be that they are ashamed of California's oil wealth (which helped build the state in earlier days), ashamed of the traditional white female figure of American Liberty, and ashamed of California's traditional religion.
Probably you are right to focus on the cross, which was certainly a central symbol of California's history as well as the dominant religion of the state and country. Among other things, it's a kick in the face of California's Hispanic inhabitants and past history (an angle that ought to embarrass them).
