 Massive Hindu Idol to Be Raised in US State, Taller Than Statue of Liberty

A massive 155-foot statue of a Hindu god is being built in North Carolina, and the project is already underway.

The world's tallest statue of "Murugan" is being planned in Moncure in Chatham County, NC, the Indian Eagle reports.

The "warrior god" will be at the center of the Carolina Murugan Temple Campus, which will be on 130 acres of residential land.

During the first phase of building, the main temple, three gopurams (entrances to a Hindu temple), and a road surrounding the campus will be completed and will cost around three to five million dollars, the outlet notes. By the project's completion, the statue will be taller than the Statue of Liberty, which is about 151 feet when not including the pedestal.

In total, the project will cost around $10 million. Currently, organizers are requesting $1.9 million to complete phase 1 of the project. 

Despite Hindus comprising only a small religious minority in the U.S., North Carolina has become an emerging prime destination for native Indians. In the town of Cary, which is on the outskirts of Raleigh, sits the 87-foot Tower of Unity and Prosperity, inaugurated in 2022, LifeSite News reports. Meanwhile, Hindu tourists travel far to come to the state to visit two prime temples.

Reports about the city's plans are gaining national attention.

Texas Senate candidate Alexander Duncan, whose state erected a 90-foot-tall statue of the monkey-headed Hindu god Hanuman on the outskirts of Houston in 2024, shared a video of the site, writing, "This is not what the Founding Fathers envisioned when they wrote the First Amendment."

Others commented on the video, speaking against a statue that promotes the worship of a false god. "This is unacceptable in America. A Christian nation," wrote one user on X.

"We can't even display a 100-foot American Flag in America. We are in big trouble," another argued.

As CBN News has reported, Jonathan Cahn, a prophetic Messianic Christian leader in the U.S., teaches that as a nation turns away from God, it embraces ancient pagan "gods" or "idols," just as ancient Israel did.

Can we start taking donations for a 100 foot statue of a butcher carving up a cow, or maybe guy barbecuing steaks, to be installed right next to the Hindu one? I mean millions of Americans worship beef and barbecue.

Can't build a 100-ft-tall American flag, but a 90-foot-tall statue of the monkey-headed Hindu god Hanuman on the outskirts of Houston is OK

Got it ...

I'd have to agree completely with the above.

America WAS founded "as a Christian nation", regardless of the deference that the Constitution makes toward religious "liberty".

In his 1798 Letter to the Massachusetts Militia, John Adams wrote,
“Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious People. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”

I daresay that Mr. Adams was NOT talking about Hinduism, islam, Shinto, Buddhism, or anything else other than Christianity (perhaps also including Judaism).

No false idols here, thank you very much.
No golden calves.
No Hindu "murugans".

Sorry if you don't care for this reply.

On the other hand Thomas Jefferson wrote, "The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbour to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg."

Plenty of dealerships have huge American flags. We have freedom of religion in the US.

Really?

Acquity Insurance has a 400 foot tall flag pole with an American flag: https://www.acuity.com/about/flagpole

Yes, there are dealership with huge American flags -- however, NO flag is to be flown in this country higher than the U.S. flag.

U.S. law (4 U.S.C. § 7) generally forbids any other flag from being flown higher than or in a position of superior honor to the American flag, except for the United Nations flag at UN Headquarters and the church pennant at sea during services; otherwise, other national, state, or organizational flags must be below the U.S. flag, smaller in size, or on separate poles to the U.S. flag's right (viewer's left), reflecting its supreme position in display.

However, this is a statue and not a flag, so I am unsure if there is any law as to statue heights and any parameters that must be met.

Yes we have religious freedom -- and 'outsiders' are using our Constitution against us ....

We are anything but a Christian nation today.  The non-believers, I believe a rather small group of people, really are having their say in the USA.  And of course, the corrupt media is doing their best to undermine the notion we have our founding as a Christian nation. 

So, from my view, we are sort of in a helter skelter period in the USA, where non-believers, and those that believe in anything but Christian beliefs are ruling the lands.  I am surprised the satanists haven't planned a record breaking statue right in the heart of some major city.  The perfect city would be Minneapolis, where they worship the life of a drug using violent criminal, George Floyd.  And where the mayor goes out of his way to speak Somali in publlic.  Ugggh, what a horse's posterior!!!!!!!

And then there is islam, growing leaps and bounds in the nation.  We will continue to see more and more NO GO ZONES in the USA, where non muslims are prohibited.  Dearborn already has areas where non-believers are not welcome.   The fabric of this nation is being torn about every day.

World's largest cow statue "Salem Sue". Not worshiped, done in fun...



For those who want to worship their statue, well, go ahead.

To the rest of us, it's just a statue.
