Hemorrhoidally speaking, of course.

Looks like a stretched-out sphincter.

If it takes that many words to explain what it is about, it’s symbolism and what feelings it is supposed to evoke, it’s not really doing it’s job as a memorial, is it.

“If it evokes anger in the community, then it is effective art.”

Is it an “angry sphincter”? Maybe someone should paint a frowny-face on it.

"Ugly but not as bad as the MLK sculpture in Boston."

That one's not too terrible in my eyes, I see what the artist was trying to do.

My candidate is the Martin Luther Kim statues in DC.

The sculptor must have known what he was doing. I guess the question is whether he was serious about that or if he’s having a big laugh about it.

I think having a big laugh.

Twisted.

“Reprobation” is spiritual psychopathy/sociopathy and as you pointed out our, the clinical description is found in Rom. 1:18-32 and II Tim. 3:1-5.

The only way to protect our children and ourselves is to avoid those who manifest this pathology; it is getting to the point where we will end up physically separating ourselves from these people.
