Anyway, what I also have is this huge white wall at one end of my room. I really want to work a huge puzzle and hang it there, but puzzles of the size I require aren't that common. I have, however, come across one that is about 9 1/2 feet wide by 4 1/2 feet tall, and it's Michelangelo's Creation of Adam. I've always loved that piece, but with me, like, not believing in the creation story and all, would it be creepy to hang it in my bedroom? I mean, if I ever do find myself in a relationship again, it will probably be with a non-believer (one can only hope), and I don't want him or her headed for the hills. We already have things like Jesus in a Bottle in the living room, and various other religious sundries littered all over the house because, well, it's funny. But there's no parody to Michelango, IMO, so I'm having trouble deciding.
What do you guys think?
It is a very beautiful piece.
I would hope that, were you to get into a relationship, he would be aware of your non-belief before he found himself in your bedroom. Not that have a problem with the find em-fuck em-forget em philosophy, but we are talking about, after all, a relationship. I mean, if you were just doing a hit and run, who would care if they ran for the hills after seeing it?
Can you post a picture of Jesus In A Bottle? I have GOT to see that one.
