Catholicism is a scam. The imbeciles who follow it still haven't figured it out after centuries. Look how much money it has scammed out of them.

Hey guys,
I posted these structures because they look pretty cool, sheer size, and detail. No need to debate. I'm sure there are other threads in this forum that you guys can debate on. Just enjoy the pics and post other pics you have!! Thanks.

I can't believe nobody has put up a Buddy Christ yet.

Oh, MC, so, what exactly is so special about Buddhism? Same wolf, different skin.

A catholic fool is fooled once.

But an imbecile is the advanced form of the fool, though it's in French for added effect. Imbeciles in the West reject the religion of their parents with a passion. Fooled once. And they embrace the bellies of the East. Fooled twice. A one time fool can be forgiven. But an imbecile??

Sad!

Somebody has to stand for Utah, matter how wacky our local religion is.

No religious statue picture thread is complete without these:

Sorry about that. I tried to edit the posts yesterday in order to add the locations of the pics, but this forum doesn't allow it or the edit button no longer exists. It seems to be quite different than other sites that allow one to edit their post even after a few days.

Anyways, the first post was in Wat Muang Ang Thong province in Thailand at 295ft. The Virgin Mary with Jesus is 64ft high and the base of it is 55ft in Haskovo, Bulgaria, and the last pic(Budai) i don't have the details.

Tallest Jesus Christ statue at 118ft or 167ft(including mound it stands on) in Swiebodzin, Poland. I was trying to find a pic of it w/o that annoying crane next to it yesterday, but couldn't find one...
