Hmmm.....I almost feel like I have seen here somewhere before....
Oh yeah! The Statue of Liberty! But wait a minute.....
Something is........different......
The Statue of Liberation Through Christ was erected in Memphis, TN in 2006. It is a "reinterpretation" of the Statue of Liberty that celebrates the merging of religious and patriotic ideals.
Not surprisingly, not everyone loves the Statue. While it is a secular symbol, the Statue of Liberty is a very important and revered symbol to many Americans. Some Americans did not approve of the statue being re-purposed as a religious symbol.
Which ever way you look at it is a sight that evokes great emotion, whatever that emotion may be.
While visiting the Statue of Liberation Through Christ, I slipped around back.
I was surprised to find a gate behind that statue leading to a secret door. I slipped in side to find....what else: Jesus's empty tomb.
