What do vandals do?

Vandals intentionally damage or destroy property, often as a form of protest, expression, or simply for the thrill of it. Their actions can include graffiti, breaking windows, or defacing public spaces. Vandalism can have significant social and economic impacts, leading to costly repairs and a sense of insecurity in communities. Ultimately, it reflects a disregard for the rights and property of others.


What religions are in conflict in Palestine?

It depends what you mean by "Palestine". If you are referring exclusively to the Palestinian Territories, there are abuses by Muslim Palestinians of Christian Palestinians and the defacing of their holy sites and monuments. Additionally, there is a conflict between Jewish Israeli Settlers and Israeli Soldiers and Palestinians (both Muslim and Christian). If you are using "Palestine" as a shorthand for "Israel and Palestine", then the religions in the conflict are Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. However, those religions are not at conflict. The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict is a ethnic/nationalist conflict where religions are used as ethnic identifiers (similar to the 1990s in Yugoslavia). It is not a theological conflict.


What do gargoyles symbolise?

In modern culture, they typically symbolize demons or other demonic creatures. However, in medieval times, they acted as scarecrows, in order to keep birds from perching on and defacing buildings with heights that would be difficult to reach. Western culture especially has taken the idea of these gargoyles and turned them into demonic symbols, probably due to our puritan origins. Originally, gargoyles were protectors, one may say, from birds.


Why was Amenhotep erased from Egyptian hieroglyphics?

Amenhotep IV, later known as Akhenaten, was largely erased from Egyptian hieroglyphics due to his radical religious reforms that promoted the worship of the sun disc Aten over traditional polytheistic beliefs. After his death, subsequent pharaohs, particularly Tutankhamun and his advisors, sought to restore the old religious practices and erase Akhenaten's legacy, viewing him as a heretic. This erasure involved defacing his statues and removing his name from temple inscriptions to reaffirm the power of the traditional gods and the established order.
