There were also obelisks over the gravesites of American Indians. Didn't mean a thing.
See, for example, Tuccamirgan (?-1750) Chief of Delaware Native Americans (Chief Tuccamirgan ( - 1750) - Find A Grave Memorial) and Uncas (Uncas - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia).
Some have oimplied that in EGW's case it meant that she was a Mason--which would be quite a trick since they didn't admit women till the late 60's or so (bad memory). Was Tuccamirgan a Mason too?
If their reasoning is that simplistic and flawed why should you trust their say-so on anything?
Well; I am glad you got the obelisk affair all figured out.I just made that observation after posts from SDA's said how bad and pagan, etc., oblisks were (which I think is silly). Maybe your issue is with them.
I don't condemn Mrs. White or her estate in the least for her gravesite. Sorry if I came off as otherwise.
of course, your version is always "the truth" and no one else can say other wise, or they "boo" and "hiss."I read all the comments and want to provide the truth.
I also know I will be boo for this but the cross is pagan as well. It too goes back to Nimrod and folks the SAVIOR did not die on a cross. You can fuss and hiss all you want it was a piece of wood.
lol; I dont worry about them much. They are not worth the effort. I cannot figure out for the life of me why such meandering negative subjects are the realm and focus of so many!!If you think oblisks are a bad thing, you should be concerned they are at EGW's gravesite. If you don't worry about oblisks, (as I don't), her gravesite is fine. I got it all figured out!

Now if I was a follow of egw I would have to see the obelisk as something godly since egw was having one (and therefore in approval) on her husbands gravesite... and God wasnt to upset either as He could have given her insight on it easily in a vision...
So the obelisk must be Godly...))))))
Aren't obelisks just like church steeples, pointing us to heaven?
I think they have a shared origin... although I heard they represent male fertility? lol not sure what that says about those churches that have steeples then.
Not.so is there any meaning now in those obelisks or not?
Why waste your money?because some there is something to it, others are probably OK with it... so is it satanic or isnt it? Is it cool with God if buy myself some mini obelisks and set them up in my living room? Just cause I like the shape of it...?
Never met one in 50 years.I remember adventist pastors enlightening potential sda newcomers about the pyramid on the dollar bill... I guess you cant have one without the other...
