A Catholic school in Adelaide, Australia, has recently discovered a new statue, but many have noticed something provocative in its design.

Photos of the monument have been ironic through various forms in social media. Happy Internet users noted that the mysterious thing man passed on to the boy looked more like a male genius organ.
As later explained in a Facebook publication, the sculpture created in Vietnam describes St. Martin de Porres, who lived in the 16th century in Peru, where he was committed to the poor, and had built an orphanage of children in a hospital. The monument was actually showing him by spending a loaf of bread for a little boy.

The school administration apologized for any concerns and covered it with a black rag. Now, another sculptor will be authorized to re-send it. /Periscopi/
