Yesterday I discovered the story behind N-rays, and today I learned about Sheela na Gigs.

"Such carvings are said to ward off death and evil"

I wonder if one of those placed on the steps of my front door would be of any help to prevent religious nutters from disturbing my peace and privacy? Guess it's time to start carving. As a Bright I would view such an exercise as experimental verification (and implicitly, debunking) of pagan views, as well as having a laugh in a creative way.
