Origin of church steeple

[Yentle]

•  Go on Google and ask what is the origin of the steeple you can almost hear the demons laughter that they treat humans into putting these on the houses of worship and all sincere means I hate them

Steep roofs, sharp steeples and gargoyles---as hideous and as scary looking as possible---were added to churches in great numbers by parishioners hoping to drive away evil creatures.

 

Drive away evil creature with evil creature, hmm 🤔

If I was a demon, I'd feel right at home among these 🤮

 No wonder I hear noises at time. I have a steep roof.The positive side of having a stepp, it keeps the rains not setting on it. It rolls of very good.

I've heard that "the cross" is a phallic symbol also. Talk about offensive!

I looked this up and was quite shocked at the answer. How disgusting. I can only imagine how much Jehovah is looking forward to the day when all of these things are destroyed. I know I am.

There are also sites telling a different story. Remember what Abraham Lincoln said: "Don't believe everything you see on the internet."

 

only anti-Catholic sites make the phallic symbol claims.

Are you sure it doesn't represent the Tower of Babel?  You know- reaching for the heavens?

I looked up a couple of articles and found the same thing.  I plan on doing more research today.
