i heard about this through some of my pagan circles. Apparently some people are very upset over this. I don't really have that strong of an opinion one way or the other, but i do think it is kinda odd.

I agree that it's odd, for sure... wouldn't say it's good or bad though myself. But at least Homer isn't making out with the pagan fertility symbol.

I think its fucking hilarious, and the "pagan community" should lighten the fuck up.

The fact that the offended are thinking about using "rain magic" to wash away the image is enough to tell me we shouldn't be taking these people very seriously. And you'd think a group of people who hold in high esteem a giant painting of a guy with a raging boner would have senses of fucking humor.

First idea I had to

perhaps i am rare among pagans, but i don't see any point in wasting that much energy trying to make it rain to wash away something that is going to be gone soon anyway.

if the image is offensive to the gods, then won't the gods take care of it themselves?

i bet if they had put Homer dressed up as the pope or something and pissed all the papist off, then the 'pagan community' would be telling them to lighten up.

You can almost hear the Woohoo!

Hee. This reminds me of Lords and Ladies by Terry Pratchett, in which ancient Oggham runes said "I have a really huge tonker" or words to that effect, according to Nanny Ogg ... ``

I have no idea why the pagans are making such a huge deal about it; itll wash away in days and everyone will have forgotten about it in a month. It the article they called it a place "definitely of great historical significance". Historical significance?! its a chalk drawing not the fucking grail. I didnt even know the damn thing existed until I read the article. They need to chill the fuck out.
