Careful! These statues could get you pregnant
SOUTH CAROLINA: Starting a family might be a little easier with a trip to Ripley's Believe It or Not museum in Myrtle Beach. The museum on Thursday
opens a monthlong display of its fertility statues. The 5-foot tall wooden statues were acquired on the Ivory Coast of West Africa in 1993.
The company says they were then placed in its corporate headquarters in Orlando, Fla., and within months, 13 women became pregnant.
The statues have since been on display around the world. According to the company, more than 2,000 women have reported becoming pregnant after touching the statues.
They will be on display at Ripley's through the first of March. The company says couples wanting to have a baby can touch the statues for free during business hours.

Those statues were just a disguised, after some human religious leader...It all depends on your faith and How is the proximity of the real thing.......
Statistically, hundred times more than 2000 women would find themselves pregnant, after brushing their teeth!
Poor statue, may have to take the blame for unwanted pregnancies !
In Thailand, there are reputed to be some temples with statues with similar "powers". But not advertised openly, only by word of mouth by the locals. The one I heard about was in Chiengmai where I went for a holiday 2 years ago.
Whatever it is, gotta take what they say with a pinch of salt (or a bucket load of it, depending...)
Agree that for SOME, it could be all in the mind. Amazing what the mind is capable of, if only people use more of it. But also true for SOME - a genuine medical / physiological problem, as opposed to a psychological one.

How many statues does it take to make 2000 women pregnant? :-P
