“The U.S. Park Police has an adult male in custody for vandalizing the base of the Washington Monument with paint,” the agency said in a statement.
According the words written on the Washington Monument which 555.5 feet tall and 55.5 feet wide at the base may have roots with ancient Egyptian religion.
The Washington Monument is technically called an obelisk, and there may be a reason it looks the way it does. George Washington and many of the other founding fathers were Freemasons, a religion that goes back to ancient Egypt.
The Egyptians had many gods, and one of them was Osirus who had a wife named Isis. The ancient Egyptians worshipped Isis because she had restored Osirus to life by putting him back together after he had been dismembered by his brother, Seth. The way they worshipped her was by building a pillar, or obelisk, which was meant to represent Osirus' penis, because that was the only part of Osirus that Isis had been unable to find.
The shape of the Washington Monument might be a way to pay homage to this story. There are many other examples of the influence of Freemasonry on our nation, such as the way the city of Washington is laid out, and the presence of Masonic symbols on our money, such as the eye above the pyramid on the back of the dollar bill, so this isn't as far out as it sounds.
