Yeah people have dicks. Back then they weren't conditioned to be ashamed of them.
>>41007666Important to note, alot of these statues would have been dressed up with clothing as well. Part of the ritual culture was to annoint them with perfumes, oils, dress them up in beautiful fabrics.

What's funny is that if we were strictly following the Bible by the book we wouldn't be allowed to depict God or the angels.It wouldn't be till the Renaissance when the Church lost its grip on society where we were actually able to go back to good European artwork. Until that point we got shit like this.
Also, Christcucks will post shit threads like this and then brag they are responsible for gay artwork like pic-related
>>41008018No, what's important is the fact that OP is taking strictly Chthonic and animalistic deities who personify the dangerous nature of the wilderness and claiming that this represents the highest ideal of European pagans.It would be like if I took a statue of Satan, Lucifer, or Baphomet and said "look and what kind of fucked up deities Christians worship, what is this a hermaphroditic goat?"Gods like Ares, Zeus, Athena, Aphrodite, Hermes, Apollo, etc. were depicted with beauty and class because they personified those forces which governed civilization, which was always at the threat of darker and chaotic forces like Pan (the wild, nature) or more to the point, the Titans (whom the gods overthrew but are evil forces in Tartarus). Even Hecate, as good of a goddess as she was, would lurk at night in a horrifying visage bringing death to all who came across her. She wasn't just a friendly neighborhood witch, she represented those dangerous aspects of night to some degree.Satan and the demons serve the same function in Christianity. So it's wild that OP is posting something so retarded.
>>41008057I'll also add that the first two pictures are depictions of Bes, depicted in a scary looking way to ward away evil spirits. He does what gargoyles do on Churches.Are we supposed to say that Gargoyles show that Churches are demonically governed?
