[QUOTE="Billnew, post: 55883707, member: 33389"] She took a stand, and sacrificed herself for her beliefs. I do support her action, but I am not saying she should get away without punishment. If she broke God's law is up to her and God. I do not see God finding fault with her for this action. Because it was done in love of God. See above for sacrifice. Freedom of speech is not without limits. I do think this goes to far, and I believe it is obscene. I have not seen it, but the description sounds pretty obscene. Jesus has a man looking as if he is comitting sodomy on him? I believe the person or people that evaluated this peice for being obscene were not were probably bias. My decision on obscenity is would you feel comfortable for a child to see it?(If not limited to an adult veiwer.) Or would you want your mother to see it. IMo this is obscene for definately the first, and probably the second(depending on seeing the actual piece of "art".) Someone questioned if Jesus is just drawn non-tradtional, would this be offensive. IMO no. Drawing a god is what the person sees, or believes god to look like(note when speaking of a general god, I do not capitalize) Until a god is depicted doing something against their religious doctrine, it is not offensive. There is a difference between non-flattering and obscene. So again, I support her in atttempting to destroy this work, but also I support her being prosecuted, I support the "artist" for his right to do this "art", but I also support his being scorned, ridiculed, and ostrasized for this work, and facing potential removal from the gallery. Both sides must sacrifice for their art, and their savior. [/QUOTE]
