Now, I do see a resemblance in that pic. Anyone lodged a complaint with Mother Nature?

Those posts are "linga" ~ or representations of Shiva's Member.
It's a violation of church/state relationships.
Where is the ACLU when we really need them eh?!
I want to see one of their old harpies who handle the nutball anti-Christian cases get out there and do screeches at these things.

OK— that’s what I thought you were talking about. I don’t get the resemblance. But then, this is not the kind of thing I sit and think about, either. Whatever.

The Washington Monument is SUPPOSED TO BE a masculine symbol showing the power and majesty of the United States government.
The guys who designed it would be very upset to find out you don't think so.

What probably did it in was the accompanying decorative sculptures which were quickly removed...

I’m offended too. The extractor groove is on the wrong end.

Sometimes a post is just a post. Except this post.

Something like this would have been referred to as a “get your mind out of the gutter” moment not long ago.

They’re shaped like that for safety reasons, not because they resemble giant peters. Rounded edges are much less dangerous when one runs (or walks) into one of these things. They have the similar structures out in front of the TVA complex in Chattanooga to prevent vehicles from driving up the sidewalk in front of the building.

And they think that collaring and chaining these "symbols' will stop the debate. I think that chaining them together will certainly make them less safe. The first time someone trips over the chain, there will be a huge gathering of greedy trial lawyers.

I was hoping someone would post that. It’s actually in Arches National Park. The first time I saw it I thought I would die laughing.
