I feel like whoever buys this should turn the garden into a satanic shrine, just to balance things out.

[–] CaptObvious@literature.cafe 27 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I mean, it’s already a pretty good Pagan nature temple.

[–] VioletTeacup@feddit.uk 7 points 2 years ago (2 children)

This is true! It just needs a sacred tree and a few triskellions to complete the look.

[–] Perfide@reddthat.com 3 points 2 years ago

And loads and loads of wild flowers and "weeds" like dandelions.

Paint it, have it appraised for many moneys, hang it there and watch the neighbour somehow ruin it. Claim damages for many money.

Excellent place for a gay bar.

[–] SirSpud@aussie.zone 32 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Seems fitting, Jesus loved saying "Ah... Men"

[–] Emperor@feddit.uk 6 points 2 years ago

The garden might be in Ireland, so it could be Eamonn.

[–] FatLegTed@feddit.uk 2 points 2 years ago

Is it raining?

I am not well versed in religion but wasn't it their god that said not to idolize him ?

[–] AK77@feddit.uk 40 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It’s fine, they’re mostly idolising his mum.

[–] MrsDoyle@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Mariolatry!

That link is actually a pretty wild ride. Excerpt: "Father Jerome of Texo, of the Society of Jesus, rejoiced in the name of slave of Mary; and, as a mark of servitude, went often to visit her in some church dedicated in her honor. On reaching the church, he poured out abundant tears of tenderness and love for Mary; then prostrating, he licked and rubbed the pavement with his tongue and face, kissing it a thousand times, because it was the house of his beloved Lady".

Yeah simps aren't new !

[–] alokir@lemmy.world 18 points 2 years ago

If I recall correctly the bible said not to worship the idols themselves or other gods through idols.

The way many orthodox christians interpret this is that it's ok to have religious symbols or icons as long as you use them as tools of worship and not worship them.

[–] CaptObvious@literature.cafe 9 points 2 years ago

He actually told them not to worship “false” idols. Idols of his family are fine.

[–] Lemmylefty@lemmy.world 34 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Having a ton of crucifixes up on a wall gets a lot funnier if you see them as hunting trophies.

[–] phi1997@kbin.social 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Each one claimed by slaying a goosafix

[–] Lemmylefty@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

Turns out Jesus has come back hundreds of times, so why don’t we ever see him?

One word: Ethel.

[–] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

Or treasure signs. X marks the spot...

[–] user_already_exists@lemm.ee 18 points 2 years ago

Jesus Christ 😶

[–] kemsat@lemmy.world 15 points 2 years ago

Crazy lives there. It pretends to not be crazy by saying “God” all the time.

[–] squiblet@kbin.social 14 points 2 years ago (1 children)

to me, this is a dichotomy of spiritual symbolism and worship of nature. I prefer the one on the right, personally.

[–] Emperor@feddit.uk 6 points 2 years ago

Needs more wicker man.

[–] 15liam20@feddit.uk 14 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It would be an awful lot creepier if they were pictures of you.

Neighbors coming over.. "have you found Jesus?"

"No, but we're still looking"

[–] MuffinHeeler@aussie.zone 7 points 2 years ago

I think it's all the blue, but it made me think of My Big Fat Greek wedding.

[–] Kittybeer@lemm.ee 7 points 2 years ago

I'd imagine them being the judgiest neighbors ever. "Dont have sex too loud, the neighbors might hear us."

[–] argh_another_username@lemmy.ca 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Put a statue of Satan on the right and watch the world burn.

[–] name_NULL111653@pawb.social 3 points 2 years ago

A proper temple... 20ft baphomet, glowing pentagram, all of it...

[–] polskilumalo@lemmygrad.ml 5 points 2 years ago

Typical polish allotment garden be like

[–] smattering82@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago

I am more concerned about how long your grass is.

[–] PlasmaDistortion@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago

That looks like a creepy cemetery.

[–] MonsiuerPatEBrown@reddthat.com 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I suppose there is a certain sense of stick-to-itiveness to the décor

[–] waterbogan@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

I'd imagine they may not be particularly noisy neighbours for the most part though. Could be far far worse, I'd much rather live next to this than have gang members for neighbours

[–] Hotdogman@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

A bowl of punch is all that is missing.

[–] Dangy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Is there a decent ex-Christian (not strictly athiest) community on here?

[–] SomeoneElseMod@feddit.uk 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

There’s two !exchristian communities, @lemmy.world and lemmy.one but they’re both dead at the moment. Same for exmormon@lemmyworld. You should start one!

[–] athos77@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Or start posting in the existing ones.

[–] SomeoneElseMod@feddit.uk 5 points 2 years ago

Sure. That’s why I linked them. I just dislike the way people created dozens and dozens of communities and then didn’t add any content.
