¶ROME, Dec. 4— Pericle Fazzini, the sculptor whose monumental statue ''The Resurrection'' is the backdrop for Pope John Paul II's weekly general audiences, died today. He was 74 years old.
¶ The sculptor, a native of Grottammare on the eastern Italian coast, began his career as an exponent of the Roman school of the 1930's. His early wooden pieces, characterized by their simple style, led to the starker later figures, which he fashioned almost exclusively in metal, particularly bronze.
¶ The Vatican commissioned Mr. Fazzini to provide a work for its modern auditorium. The result was ''The Resurrection,'' a statue depicting Jesus rising from a nuclear bomb crater.
¶ ''Suddenly there came to me the idea of Christ preaching peace for 2,000 years, and the place where He prayed for the last time: the olive grove of Gethsemane,'' said Mr. Fazzini in a book about the work. ''I had the idea of depicting Christ as if He were rising again from the explosion of this large olive grove, peaceful site of His last prayers. Christ rises from this crater torn open by a nuclear bomb; an atrocious explosion, a vortex of violence and energy.''
¶ ''The Resurrection'' is molded in red bronze and yellow brass and measures 66 feet by 23 feet by 10 feet.
You have to swallowing a ton of conspiracy shit to even raise that question. So what's the basis for your question? Show me in why it suggest that to you.
You providing scriptures of not bearing false witness. We are to assume your titles go this way, priest, lawyer, Agent, Attorney, Enforcer for the New World Order (willing to carry out assisnations for your masters), Proector of Pedos, Soros Shill.
How am I wrong. I anticipate your response as I am sure you will provide it quickly with the breadth of your wisdom.
@Are_We_Sure is not sure what he is doing. Who are you working for? I can't believe you threatened @Jem777's life. I think you should ask for a raise and get promoted out of this job.
You think you need some special title to know not to lie and bear false witness? That's just bizarre. Schoolchildren know this. And yet here you go bearing false witness again.
Also bizarre is the fantasy life you have created for me. Makes you feel more important doesn't it? To Build Me up in your fantasy way? I must be a Trained Agent of The Powers That Be.
What if I told you, I'm just an ordinary guy who knows how to research stuff and knows a bit about logic and reasoning and putting that all together I find you continually spreading so many falsehoods. Some brighter than average, Average Joe calling out your BS.

No. It's not clearly Baphomet.

Do you really think they would come out and admit it's baphomet? I thought you were smarter than that, but then again you're just a shit stirrer

It in absolutely no way looks like Baphomet.

You shouldn't believe it because it's clearly not true.
Do you actually believe your accusation or are you just using it ammunition? If you actually believe it, why?
