I didn’t mean to imply the Washington statue was supposed to be Baphomet. I was noting the occultic pose was the same.

Also, Zeus isn’t as offensive to our eyes, but he’s no less a false god than Baphomet. The God of the Bible is a jealous God. I don’t think he laughs at the pagan statues decorating our capitol buildings and court houses.

Thank you for the clarification.

I don't know what to think about this aspect. On the one hand, artists in the past have tried to use from powerful images from history to draw parallels with the heroes they were trying to portray. People who saw the art were not always aware of the background of the pose or whatever. On the other hand, an idol is an idol.
