Pelourinho
The pillory was a device made of stone, wooden or metal framework erected on a post, with rings for securing the hands, or heads and formerly used for punishment by public humiliation and often further physical abuse. The pillory is related to the stocks.

Pelourinhos where religion exposed those who did not aligned with the mandatory crap, in other times I would have been one of them, hanging there to entertain the people as Therese says so well...
J. Gafarot club has replied to Xata clubThat doesn't invalidate Thérèse but it seems to bring your religious statement under a certain cloud of uncertain exclusiveness, religious feelings and use not included, IMHO.
Xata club has replied to J. Gafarot clubBut if that bothers you just erase my comm, no crisis.
Interesting story José.
Happy new week:)
