Whew! That's a big cross!
"IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE: On a lonely stretch of highway just outside of Groom, Texas (near Pampa) stands a 19 story tall cross that can be seen for miles from any direction. The arm spans are 110 feet across. It is constructed of a welded steel framework covered with steel sheeting. This cross is the result of the efforts of Steve Thomas and family of Pampa, Texas. It took 250 welders eight months to complete, and weighs 1,250 tons. It stands alone,unsupported by guy wires, and can withstand winds of 140 miles per hour. Steve Thomas' son, Zack Thomas, is an All-Pro middle linebacker for the Miami Dolphins."

Wow that is absolutely beautiful.
It is fantastic. A lot of thought and planning went into that project.
Wonder if any mohammadins will complain that they feel insulted or excluded? Twits!
Good morning, G*D bless and Maranatha!

Hi TMW, I think Yokora was nasty troll. I deleted the comment. Some people need to get a life!
It is a beautiful cross isn't it? I'm sure someone will complain that it offends them eventually. Asshats.
Shhh, or the ACLU will send the lawyers to tear it down.
Wow. How wonderful! I wish I were closer to TX, so I could go in person.
Well I am agnostic, and it certainly does not offend me.
How very simple, yet strikingly beautiful, and perfect for it's setting. I hope the family get lots of support to maintain it.

The aclu and mohammadins may screech and flutter like the moonbats they are, but if it's on private property...though they might pull public nuisance...

Its an eyesore. Luckily its out in the middle of nowhere so the neighbors dont have to see it.
How insecure do you have to be to need to build a giant, worthless, good for nothing cross?
I can just about hear it now "Looky what Ive done! With this Im sure to get into heaven!! And now everybody who sees it knows it too."
Let the religious lecturing begin....
