Hmmmm...i've seen many obelisks in my 70 plus years...to date not one of
those times did it remind me of a phallic image. Perhaps it's all in the eye of
the beholder.

The word Obelisk is derived from the Greek word obeliskos meaning "needle," symbolizing the stability and the creative force of Atum. Atum (also known as Tem or Temu) was the first and most important Ancient Egyptian god to be worshipped.
