You’re both being far too generous. If you note the figure that is placed second from the left. Look at how he is holding his Bible in his left hand. He is clearly giving the Bible the middle finger. He is cleverly shown hiding it inside, but it’s been revealed to me that that is what is going on. And if you dare to challenge me on that because you think my interpretation is irrational and completely devoid of reason, please remember, this has been revealed to me and you can’t compete with that revelation with all your logic and stuff.

I’m not sure if that needs a sarcasm tag or not.

Perhaps your revelation does not translate properly since you do not have the January 2010 secret Bible decoder ring; you have the December 2009 version and are hopelessly out of date. The tall figure has had too many beers and is preparing to lighten his liquid load. It has been revealed to me by a reliable source on a street corner, complete with a handwritten sign, long hair and beard, dirt, halitosis, and lice.

All of you — you are coming up with random interpretations of some random picture from some random website, with no verification of what it’s supposed to be, or if it is authorised by religious doctrine. That’s si.... oh, wait, wasn’t that what Gamecock, Dr. Eckleburg etc. were just doing?

Did you notice that in the other statue of Calvin, he's holding his Bible (or his Institutes) the exact same way, with his Hawaiian Love Sign finger as a bookmark?

These statues must be based on a common source, maybe a portraiticon. I'll go see if I can hunt it out.
