The original Athena statue stood in Palmyra, Syria, until it was destroyed by ISIS in 2015.

They're doing it again!
The same group that recreated the Roman triumphal arch that once welcomed travelers to the Temple of Baal is now honoring another pagan deity.
The United Arab Emirates, the Italian mission to the United Nations and the Institute for Digital Archeology have re-created a statue of the goddess Athena which once stood in Palmyra, according to Breaking Israel News.
Though Athena was venerated as a goddess of reason, she was also known as "Athena Promachos," a war goddess, and the re-created statue features her holding a spear. The exhibit, titled "The Spirit In the Stone," is being hosted at the United Nations headquarters in New York City.

Today is Wodensday,Odins day, and yesterday was Tiws or Tyrs day. The day after tomorrow is Friggsday. Fun stuff. My kids think I’m BSing them when I do that.
I thank you for helping me with my diet as I no longer desire dinner, however I also blame you for the nightmares that will undoubtedly haunt my dreams.
It’s not the nonbelievers believe nothing. It’s that they’ll believe anything.
Yup. These gods are heavily integrated into the _modern_ western world. Their holidays are the very ones which most USAians honor: Ba’als day and Ishtar’s high days, are the peak of the seasons, here. These days are since the tower of Babel and have been hoisted upon our generations as having something to do with Yeshua HaMashiach.
Return to the days of our fathers, or be upon a bed of tribulation with the Queen Mother of it all.
Those who don’t know history will repeat it.

Well done. :-)
[Using fear for religious purposes is just as old as the nonsense in this article]
FEAR is not of GOD. It is a demonic spirit. Perfect Love casts out fear. I don’t consider the warning as a tool of fear. It is a reminder from the LORD to people to be prepared, because He is coming soon.
The only people who would fear the warning are those who are unprepared to meet Him.
This is a true account.

Daniel 5:23
....... and thou hast praised the gods of silver, and gold, of brass, iron, wood, and stone, which see not, nor hear, nor know: and the God in whose hand thy breath is, and whose are all thy ways, hast thou not glorified:
Good scripture for this thread.
