if this ritual isn't performed, the monument goes flaccid and results in a dangerous hazard if it bends over far enough for the tip to touch the ground
American civil religion really be looking like all other religions.
It would not surprise me if in a couple of centuries they start putting little notes to George Washington through the cracks in the masonry. Then it would be a true Americanist religion in the style of the CK2 mod.
CK2 After the End, if anyone is curious
It should be an Americanist pilgrimage event.
imagine the amount of 
trampling each other if their was an American Haaj
We all know an American haaj would not involve that much walking, it would be somehow truck-based
Now I'm just picturing honking trucks all around the Kaaba, like one of those Covid-era Biden rallies. Circumambulation in an F150 sounds nuts.
True
They even somewhat parroted mihrab inside it, but of course facing west and with idol inside:
I was disgusted by this photo at first, but imagining a January 6 style christofascist stampede 
I didn’t know what to think about this image, but as my eyes were scanning the photo I came across the American flag and realized this is the Washington monument and not Israel, and I fucking lost it
The wailing phallus
Can we please make idolatry a sin again
i dont know what bible these peope are reading but i think they managed to defy everything jesus said about how to pray
In order to fight american evangelicals, we need to revive John Knox to tear down the Washington Monument.
Hi I'm Johnny Knoxville and this is Jackass
I'm really feeling down on myself, but the bright side I could be looking for today is thinking about all the dumb shit I've avoided thinking and doing by just having a little bit of materialist philosophy and care for others in my back pocket.
are they groping washington's penis?
Common misconception, this was originally called "the Presidential Glory Hole" and the intention was to erect a monument sized depiction of a penis sticking out of it of whoever held office at the time. However, this idea was a bit ambitious so they had to settle for a more metophorical phallic structure.
What is the context for this?
Just some evangelicals praying on the Washington monument like it's the Western Wall.
as a christian i am flabbergasted at this behaviour. how does this even happen??
The leaders of the American Christian movement are all very rich, fascist, and most importantly, rich
but still, i presume these people can read the bible for themselves right?
actually reading the bible is a great way to make atheists, so presumably the church discourages it
please don't be disrespectful like that, although I get it. I know people here have had a lot of sour experiences with Christianity in the west, but spirituality is a normal thing. Personally I'm an atheist too, but come on. Your username references John Brown, who did read the Bible and it made him into a militant abolitionist.
Is it disrespectful if it's true? My personal experience is that reading the bible after being raised in a religious environment made me into an atheist, and I personally know a good number of people who went through the same thing.
they don't, and that's presumably what made protestants seem more progressive and such. but turns out you can tell people what to think about the book-club book pretty well with appropriate theatrics.
bonus points if you control which 'translation' of the book you deem permitted
There's an issue of Captain America where a dude parachutes onto the washington monument and tries to detonate a nuke.
do not sound with a nuclear bomb
Images like this make me realize maybe the Mormons were onto something by making Jesus a white American. They really have their shit together. Mormons are gonna outlast evangelicals and it's not even a close contest. Evangelicals are tearing themselves apart from what I understand.
Protestants reinvented Medieval Catholicism
in the shower like
Me when the poop is extra spicy
Fucking cancer of the world
Just being a good Christian and idolizing a graven image.
Wtf are those freaks doing?
Praying to George Washington's penis
