to me it says we are all looking to jesus for the answers, but jesus is holding up the constitution and is saying "look, quit blaming me for your bullshit and looking at me for answers" "figure it out for yourselves because I dont really exist"...


i wouls actually like to talk to this artist about what he was trying to convey because there is a lot of shit going on here and interesting as to why he picked certain figures in history and not others...

I just found the artist's website with an explanation of the symbols, etc... kinda takes the fun out of it. The site is here: http://www.mcnaughtonart.com/artwork...tpiece_id=353#.

I actually thought the thing was a parody when I first saw it.
