[MomentsofSanity]

Put this in the oops column. Statue is now covered up and the school is apologizing.

Truth in Advertising.

What you did there. I see it.

 

[Sunburn74]

Lol... many to blame for this one

 

[kage69]

Catholics never fail to amuse, I'll give them that.

 

[pcgeek11]

It sounds like they need to get their minds out of the gutter.

I wonder how many people he can feed with that loaf of bread?

Don't you mean young boys? That statue clearly has a young boy getting a loaf.

 

[twjr]

Showed this to my fiance and dad last night. They only saw a priest handing a boy some bread.

Of course, this is Australia and we have gotten a bit sick of the church giving loaves to children. We are about to try one of the most senior Vatican Clergy for historical sex offences after all.

Give us this day our daily bread..... no really.....

lol...the lords work.

But you simply must forgive our trespasses.

I had to read the link to have any idea what was even slightly inappropriate. I have no idea how some folks go so far out of their way to find something to complain about. Worse, the people in charge who listen to these idiots giving them credence. Shame on the idiots and shame on the school's admin.

You had to Read? Come on man, you're not that sheltered.

I see what you did there. 🙄

 

[bradly1101]

It's only medium-erect. A chub-on.

 

[Paratus]

When’s the statue running for Alabama senator?

Suffer the little children come unto me.

Hahaha. It's like that Louis CK bit about sculptors being pedophiles...

The Catholic church has a long and storied history of raping children. Hope that clears it up for you.

Just imagine it was a fountain; where would the water come out?

I agree, people making something out of nothing.

Just like religion, how fitting 😀

Tell that to the Christian leaders who thought it was suggestive. I wholeheartedly endorse the statue and would love to see one in front of every Catholic church in the world.
