That's pretty freaking cool. Is that the one in Brazil? Or did they really do this in Poland? I think that's great.
Maybe this is a better question for the religious board, but how do you feel about them doing something like this? Isn't better to spend the money on things that are needed more? Like shelter, food, education etc.?
That's exactly what's going on in Poland right now, controversy over this statue for the reasons you mentioned. I personally would have spent the money on better things, like the ones you mentioned. Plus I'm not big on depictions of people or things that could so easily become idol worship to many people.As a work of art and as a landmark, I think it's very cool. But given the current world economy, it seems like bad timing to me.
if i hate an extra million dollars, id like to erect a giant jesus statue here.
Why would you hate an extra million dollars? I'd enjoy an extra million dollars, ...not hate it.
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh maybe it was my true communistic nature showing through
