Fig. 23 The Phoenician serpent god, alias Basilisk. The
serpent, as well as the image of the sun, is always a phallic symbol in ancient
religion. Basilisk is where the Roman Catholic Church got the name-- St.
Peter's Basilica. Basilica is the old Greek name for the temple of the
phallic god. How appropriate this is in view of the perpetual obsessions
of the priests of "Mother Church." It also is well complimented by the
obelisk in St. Peter's square which is a world wide phallic symbol complete with
the phallic ball on top.
