The piece, called "Leviathanation," features a giant fish head made from fiberglass that is stuck in front of a train car, while stuffed animals rest on its head. The name is a reference to Leviathan, which, according to ML Art Source, was a monstrous sea creature from ancient mythology that was used by Christians as an image of Satan during the Middle Ages. ...
(Sept. 22) -- They say the road to hell is paved with good intentions -- but maybe it's also tiled and lined with porcelain. The image of Jesus has appeared on everything from toast to the surface of Mars, and most recently a telephone pole in Louisiana and a sock in the U.K. Now, not to be outdone by his heavenly counterpart, Satan wants in on the action, too. Last week a Hungarian man, Laszlo Csrefko, of Bekasmegyer, Budapest, discovered the devil in a bathroom tile.

"When one speaks of 'the smoke of Satan' in the holy rooms, it is all true -- including these latest stories of violence and pedophilia," Amorth was cited ...
Here's the Pat Robertson paradox: Maybe the overwhelming condemnation of his comments about Haiti following the earthquake is evidence of how much religion continues to matter to many Americans. In case you missed it, Robertson said this on the 700 Club: "Something happened a long time ago in Haiti, and people might not want to talk about it. They were under the heel of the French.
