		<description>anne: If you think that anyone would go perved over something like this, then you have the reason of it all wrong. To everyone who continues to down the piece, it's not the piece it's self but where it's placed. The meaning of the piece will be apparent when the place it is in is meant for it.
The first thing I thought was everlasting love, not "Hot damn lets wack off to it!"
It may not be the typical grave piece, but it is unique and I think the artist did a very good job.</description>

		<description>After reading all the comments and reading the cheap and unthinkable comments by those who just think about this sculpture in a sexual nature or to the mindless twit d go and read the story about the sculture.  This sculpture is about a man's love of art and sculpture and a wife that understood that love of art and was able to express her grief in a way she knew her husband would appreciate.  Its not about the money, I'm sure if you had plenty you would do useless things with it.  As you were able to freely express your opinion, even though it would have been better kept to yourself, so she is also free to express herself freely without persecution from people like you who dont bother to take the time to understand or even get the true facts.  Its s shame you cant get your head out of the sand and really appreciate life.</description>

		<description>Im crying at this image on my screen, I never do that.  I wonder if Larry had any idea how supremely blessed he was. I wonder if he comprehended that he was the richest man down under.  The Taj Mahal, the pyramids, the eternal fire at Arlington were all attempts to express grief through art, sincere gestures all, they pale in comparison. This is by far the most moving piece of art I have ever seen.  The fingernail scratch marks are chilling. Beautiful.  Ms. Anderson I can't tell you how my heart goes out to you, I lost my son two years ago and this is how I have felt since the day he died.  I know how it feels to be a dead man walking.</description>

		<description>I cried when I saw the magnitude of her love. I wonder if Lawrence had any idea how blessed he was, that he was the richest man in the world.
Fuck the Taj Mahal, this shit took my breath away. This is how I like to think Gods love looks.  Beautiful.........................</description>

		<description>This graph is not saying that Christianity caused the dark ages; rather that Christianity inhibited scientific advancement then, as it still does today.

If you believe in creation you are a dumb fuck.</description>

		<description>Man.  Never, ever have I seen so much ignorance of history all paraded in one short space before.  No, Christianity, per se, did not cause the Christian Dark Ages, however, Roman Catholic Church, in fact, did, in its exercise of the social/political control over the monarchs and peoples of Europe.  In many, many ways--read some history, don't just swallow what your priest/pastor/favorite pedophile tells you.

Some Junior Einstein above trumpeted his ignorance by saying "...that does not mean that Christianity halted scientific advancements..." Hello?  Galileo? Shut down and under house arrest for life?  HE wasn't the only one, you know--hundreds of philosophers and (what passed for) scientists were tortured or burned at the stake for heresy, apostasy, blasphemy, witchery, you name it--just for saying n the basis of sound astronomic principle, that the sun revolved around the earth (something the Greeks knew a thousand years before), the earth was round (understood by contemporaneous Norsemen, Persians and proven by Aristotle a thousand years previous), germ theory...you name it--only in Europe, in thrall and under the control of the Roman Catholic Church was science and learning not only discouraged, but punished with death.

Whereas math and science flourished in the Islamic world as well as South America.  No person who is not entirely ignorant of the history of Western Civilization would, in fact, put the decline and fall of civilization--the Christian Dark Ages--down to any other agency than the Christian Church in Europe--at that time the Roman church.

Today the Ignoroids For Christ continue this war on science by trying, however ineptly and stupidly, to turn back the march of Biology, Genetics and Geology by gainsaying the science of evolution.  Religious fascists.

Jeepers--read something besides bible tracts and romance novels, OK?</description>
