There's a joke to be made about square pegs and round holes somewhere in there.

Yes, it's important to worship the god head.

I think it's pretty interesting that all of the linked depictions show god with a big erect penis, but no balls. It seems to me this indicates more importance placed on actual humping than reproduction.

Take that, religious types!

All of them are a little different, but there are certain markers that identify Min - the arm raised to the square, the erect penis, etc.

Problem #2....the rectangle is coming out of his belly button.

Yes, that's some sloppy work.
