is that where papa stands? also note the thread title here is wrong as it is on top of the cloth thingie not wrapped in it. does that affect the symbolism?

I love the caption of that X post. And I can't think of a non terrifying reason for it. I realized the perspective thing makes it look more rounded like a snake head.



It's actually hard to find a non snake angle.

OK here's my less scary explanation. God or Satan (or both if you go by Job) puppet Vatican architects unconscious minds to not see the wide angle perspective from the back of the room when designing their ornate hall.

It's really ugly to start with. With just two stained glass windows. It's unsettling at very least. Even with non snake angles it has a enclosed (trapped) architecture. Too many lines make you feel caged.

But you can't unsee the view from the back.

So, in the giant god club in the sky, Satan says to God, Odin, Baal, and Mazda. The crew.

"See, I told you I could get them to do it!"

Then in that divine club, Buddha starts to ask them why they enjoy human attachment to suffering, and the others say, "we don't have any fun when people listen to you, shut up Siddhartha."
