One final thought: In an article titled “How Reliable were the Early Church’s Oral Traditions” theologian Greg Boyd tells us “First century Jewish culture was....an orally dominated culture.” Kind of like today’s modern Catholic priesthood wouldn’t you say. This sculpture is “hard” evidence in support of that venerable tradition. (This material just writes itself, doesn’t it?)

A subtle way of telling his grace to go fuck himself? Or just the sculpture arsing about?

The Lord helps those who help themselves.

I don't care if priests blow themselves.. Catholic priest. The suppression of their sex in priesthood , could turn them into evil spirits chasing after little boys.
