Plastic Jesus: religious signs, symbols and refuges on the road

Wow, how tall is that cross?

It is the memorial park for Pope John Paul II - the Polish Pope - in Poznan (Poland). They have a great adoration for him and all memorials are quite extravagant. This picture is from 2011 - those trees are much bigger now. I will try to scan a more recent photo.

All I can say is that religion has given use some of the very best in photo subjects. All 35mm.

But the price was high and it is high! (and I am a stonemason myself!)

Holy Shit!, my flickr album on this topic.

A lot of this stuff is hilarious. Unless, of course, you're queer. Or a woman. Or not a Christian. Etc. Then it starts getting real scary.

I admire the images -- they are Indeed evocative of the spirit of much of America. And I find them personally repugnant.

Marc, I would guess that you are destined, like me, to burn in the Eternal Fires!
