But Christians would never go apeshit over art

Recommended Posts

http://religion.blogs.cnn.com/2010/10/09/woman-charged-for-destroying-controversial-jesus-art-in-colorado/?hpt=T2

What I think is particularly despicable is the Chirstians appear to have the news as spooked over this as it would over a piece showing Muhammad.

Show the flippin' piece of art you douchbags. How the are we supposed to know whether it's "offensive" or not if we can't see it?

What, did I miss the part where church leaders are calling for the artist to be killed? Did someone suggest beheading the artist? Have there been riots and mass protests that the news didn't report?

Of course the woman is a dumbass. She's also being charged as she should, so the system will take its course. Paul, I know you're mostly California based, but I was in NYC for the Piss Christ bruhaha. A lot of people were pussed off. They were pissed off that tax dollars were supporting disgusting things called art that attacked religion. I'm sure some of them would have destroyed the "art" of they could. But I don't remember death threats or artists having to change their name and go into hiding.

Yes morons and fanatics of all religions and ideologies do stupid things and makelahr larger group look bad, but let's not pretend all things are equal.

Well she did march into the gallery with a crowbar and destroy it, so I wouldn't exactly call her level headed...

Anyway this article on foxnews describe the art as a lithograph depicting Jesus Christ receiving oral sex from a man. Nice.

I'm not surprised that the CNN article didn't mention exactly why the so called art was controversial.

I have no problem with people making/displaying/selling art like this, or dung art, piss art that insults any religion. I only have a problem with it when tax dollars fund the work. When such groups as the national endowment for the arts comes under fire for sponsoring such stuff, lefties go "apeshit" and call it censorship, which is of course, pure bullshit.
People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

Lower righthand corner.
I had to double the size of the image to see it, so the quality leaves something to be desired.

Article about it which makes a couple points:

1. The work is intended to point out the corruption of religious institutions.

2. The Loveland Museum/Gallery is funded by tax dollars.

And the artist in question says that's not true.

Without actually seeing the work though, how the hell am I supposed to know which is the truth and which is the myth?

If an authority told you a piece of literature was "bad" for you and you weren't allowed to see it because it might upset other people; would you believe them?

I suppose we should never question authority; just put blind faith in their decisions. Never ask to see the proof of anything.

Is that what you're saying?

Well, for one thing, the artist says that is not what is being depicted:

That is not biblical...if you know what you're talking about, dude.;)


There is a lot that isn't biblical, but the organized religions ram it down the throats of the masses.
Celibacy for priests, charging money for indulgences, the Crusades, and on, and on.
