NE Woman Demands Spiderman Sculpture Come Down Because She Thinks Its the Devil
By Hemant Mehta, July 18, 2019
A couple of months ago, artist Ian Anthony Laing created this nifty sculpture of Spidermans hands close to the Lincoln Childrens Zoo in Nebraska. Looks awesome. Its one of those public works of art everyone like to take pictures in front of.
The project was one of dozens of works of art placed around the city as part of the Serving Hands Lincoln program.
But this week, a woman wrote a nasty letter to the mayor demanding the sculpture be taken down because it reminds her of
not Spiderman.
It is a sculpture of two hands open, painted Red & Black, and formed into Devil Horns, she wrote in an email Friday, calling the art anti-Christian, demonic, and completely inappropriate for showcase near a family attraction.
She demanded the city move the 6-foot Spiderman sculpture because its ugly, perverse and a hate crime against the church.
Cmon now. Spiderman helps people. If the ladys concern is getting rid of things that arent family friendly and that promote perversion, then the local churches need to go well before the sculpture does.
But, but, she really,
really BELIEVES it true, she has
faith it is true, so it
must be TRUE.
It's a different way of seeing.
You just can't SEE it.
