Re: Joesph Smith Sphinx

As creepy as Mormonism is, this is actually a great sculptural garden. Made before correlation, it's one man's inspiration with Mormon influence.

Gilgal Garden is a hoot! I laugh my butt off every time I go.

Nothing ridicules LDS beliefs like a TBM putting the beliefs on predominate display.

I love gilgal.

I take out-of-town visitors there just to show them how wacky mormonism really is.

It's on my must-see list for out-of-town visitors too. Creepily charming. (n/t)

On a nice day, I will suggest a picnic lunch in the park to my out of town guests.

I don't tell them anything about the gilgal park. We just go with our lunches and I wait and watch as my curious guests begin to figure it out.

Ya. Temple Square is the PC face of Mormonism

Gilgal is the seedy underbelly. Cool but bizarre.

Love that place

My friend and I once took a bunch of photos there. Let's see--one of us is picking Joe S's nose. Others were also somewhat disrespectful, but no nudity or bodily functions involved.
