Gargoyles! Love them or Loathe them?
I was under the impression that everyone hates Gargoyles, I've read that some people feel they were misunderstood and don't consider them to be demons. I saw some Gargoyle figurines in a shop, I asked the shopkeeper if he sells many.. he was like "well we do sell a few..!"
I don't find them attractive.. it's interesting that some seem to have a fondness for them though..?

I don't know where anyone would consider them a demon - they were decorative on buildings as far as I know - to scare evil away and such.

I like them!
I consider them to be protective!
As with most things that are actually for this purpose they are portrayed as evil!
Love and hugs

I don't find them particularly scary, but I guess in the old days they thought they would scare the scarey which doesn't make sense, but oh well! I think they're quaint and have a certain weird charm of their own, not that I particularly want them for my home, lol.

I love gargoyles. I want some for statues in my yard. I have one dragon statue so far. But those things are expensive to buy.

I had this one sitting on top of my entertainment center until he fell off and broke.

I saw him in a little shop and fell in love with him. I thought that he was gone for good. But now that I found him in Amazon, I'm gonna put him in my cart!  |

I heard once that gargoyles are protectors and that they ward off evil. What better to ward off evil then something that is evil and scary looking?
