As I previously said, in Italy we have only two pillars. I posted a picture in "Pillars", to show the scheme of the masonic temple. img228.imageshack.us/my.php?image=figura14nr.jpgWe have three statues: Minerva, above the WM, Hercules, above the JW; Venus, above the SW. IMO , however, Hercules & Venus should be shifted, Beauty being the final result of the construction of the Temple. So it was in the past, as depicted by the picture.

Minerva = Wisdom Hercules = Strength Venus= Beauty
Just like the Pillars.

But, in this case, they would just repeat the same message.
I prefer then the Italian system
