Hmmm ... so what's Homer's underwear hiding?

Pagans have pledged to perform "rain magic" to wash away a cartoon character painted next to their famous fertility symbol - the Cerne Abbas giant.

A doughnut-brandishing Homer Simpson was painted next to the giant on the hill above Cerne Abbas, Dorset, to promote the new Simpsons film.

Many believe the ancient chalk outline of the naked, sexually aroused giant to be a symbol of ancient spirituality.

Many couples also believe the 180ft carving aids fertility.

The painted Simpsons character has been painted with water-based biodegradable paint which will wash away as soon as it rains.

If this really is a "symbol of ancient spirituality", should I crosspost to Religion/Theology?

they see it? sort of a pet peeve of mine that archaeologists and other "experts" attach spiritual intentions to ancient pornography. i mean come on people. which do you think came first? porn or gods?

Otherwise there'd be no people to make porn with...

Does that mean, like, waiting for it to rain?

Homer is a rotten shot. Unless he has a bizarre foot fetish...
