what do u guys think of this sculpture?
haha! i think it totally looks like she’s having an orgasm! lol
this is what mother teresa said:
I saw in his hand a long spear of gold, and at the iron’s point there seemed to be a little fire. He appeared to me to be thrusting it at times into my heart, and to pierce my very entrails; when he drew it out, he seemed to draw them out also, and to leave me all on fire with a great love of God. The pain was so great, that it made me moan; and yet so surpassing was the sweetness of this excessive pain, that I could not wish to be rid of it. The soul is satisfied now with nothing less than God. The pain is not bodily, but spiritual; though the body has its share in it. It is a caressing of love so sweet which now takes place between the soul and God, that I pray God of His goodness to make him experience it who may think that I am lying.
ya…. i’m pretty sure it was sexual

yes both figures in the sculpture appear to be getting sexual pleasure.
The angel appears to be getting it’s kicks by giving kicks, and the woman in the shawl is definitely having an orgasm.
What do you expect to happen when God pokes you with his red hot love spear.
