  Pope Lick Monster - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Pope Lick Monster is a cryptid reported to live beneath a railroad trestle over Pope Lick Creek, in the Fisherville area of Louisville, Kentucky.
Descriptions of the creature vary; sometime it is described as being a "goatman", a creature with the body of a man and the head of a goat; other times it is described as being a white-haired, Yeti-like creature.
The monster was the subject of a 1988 film by Ron Schildknecht, called The Legend of the Pope Lick Monster.

Although his tines were not particularly long, his massive, 18-inch-wide rack would score in the 130 class on the Pope and Young scale; and I quietly eased my longbow into position as the buck entered the field and began feeding in my direction.
The buck was eyeing a group of does that were feeding close to the giant, old oak that held my ladder stand; but he couldn’t resist a few mouthfuls of lush clover so he wasn’t cutting the distance between us as fast as I would have hoped, given the short amount of shooting light remaining.

Religious leaders, of whom the Pope is most in charge, claim that Freudian slips are a human aberration because we all failed God's special "Garden Root Test".

Hale had originally suggested that the discussants on island universes and the distance scale should be W.W. Campbell (director of the Lick Observatory), presenting the conventional view, and Harlow Shapley (Hale's junior associate at Mt. Wilson), putting forward his new, larger distance scale, based on variable stars in globular clusters and other considerations.
His years at Lick were, however, devoted primarily to photographing spiral nebulae with the Crossley telescope, the work that resulted in his being asked to face off with Shapley in 1920.

They lopped off, indeed, some of the branches of Popery, but they left the root and stock when they left us under the domination of human systems and decisions, usurping the infallibility which can be attributed to Revelation alone.
They dethroned one usurper only to raise up another; they refused allegiance to the Pope only to place the civil magistrate in the throne of Christ, vested with authority to enact laws and inflict penalties in his kingdom.
The civil magistrate has everywhere contaminated religion by making it an engine of policy; and freedom of thought and the right of private judgment, in matters of conscience, driven from every other corner of the earth, direct their course to this happy country as their last asylum.
