Dans la Grèce antique, les petits pénis étaient célébrés et considérés comme un signe de haute intelligence. Les hommes avec de gros pénis étaient vus comme grotesques, risibles et barbares. C'était même un signe de noblesse et de supériorité culturelle. Alors messieurs, peut-être que vous n'êtes simplement pas nés à la bonne époque...

● Poland 🇵🇱 Saint Mary's Basilica

Saint Mary's Basilica (Polish: Kościół Mariacki) is a Brick Gothic church adjacent to the Main Market Square in Kraków, Poland. Built in the 14th century, its foundations date back to the early 13th century and serve as one of the best examples of Polish Gothic architecture. Standing 80 m (262 ft) tall, it is particularly famous for its wooden altarpiece carved by Veit Stoss (Wit Stwosz). Some of its monumental polychrome murals were designed by Poland's leading history painter, Jan Matejko (1898-1891). In 1978 it became a UNESCO World Heritage Site alongside the Historic Centre of Kraków. Wikipedia

● Colombia 🇨🇴 Iglesia de Nuestra Señora de Fatima

Given the growing devotion of Colombians to the Virgin of Fatima, Bishop João S. Clá Dias conceived, encouraged and guided the construction of the church with special care, down to the smallest details.

He suggested that it should be a temple full of color and light that would speak of faith and hope to those who would congregate in it to praise God and his Blessed Mother. For all this we express in these pages our heartfelt gratitude to our founder.

Already a year before its dedication (Inauguration), it began to be frequented by numerous faithful, both in Sunday Masses and in other liturgical celebrations.

The solemn dedication ceremony was celebrated by Bishop Héctor Cubillos Peña, Bishop of Zipaquirá, on August 8, 2015
