It is, the statue was quickly removed. It was just a mistake.

I put a link to the article in my post, it was very much real, commissioned this May and finalized and unveiled in November.... only after a few weeks people started to spread pics of it online and of course since it has a priest offering his loaf to a kids face it wasn't long before.... like most things of this nature in the catholic church.

It was covered up, a real good sign for the church and how they handle these things, you can be happy in the knowledge that it's still going on under there, but now with a sheet over it!

Apparently the "mistake" happened because when the statue existed as a 2d image it was less..... dick like and the kids 2d position would have been beside the priest, the statue maker just bought that to life in 3d and aye, the loaf became far less innocent.

They covered it up because they realized it was indecent. Luckily much of what went wrong in the church with the child abuse scandals has been adressed. They've taken a much more proactive stance and they have resolved to actually process reports of abuse themselves.
