Jesus painting 'pornographic'

Some say a giant painting of Christ hanging in the sanctuary of Saint Charles Borromeo Catholic church and school is pornographic.

Others feel the painting merely depicts Christ with muscles in his abdomen.

No one at the local archdiocese would comment on the controversy.

However, two women leading a protest against the painting believe the image is obscene.

"Religious art is beautiful. I do not consider this to be iconography. I feel that is blasphemy against the holy spirit. I feel it is pornographic," says Seannene Smith.

The painting is said to be a copy of a work in the Vatican.

I'm Christian & stuff like that never bothers me.

Freedom of expression, whether you like it or not, it's the law.

+1 I really don't think the intention was to put a raging boner on Jesus. :shrug:

Makes sense. If you were God and God's son at the same time you would give yourself a great package as well.

The dude's head/neck/chest/abs are all a little goofy looking. It seems to be more an issue of unfortunately located artistic expression, but I don't think it was intended to be pornographic.

I'm guessing the two ladies leading the protest aren't getting any at home, btw.

^^ If that doesnt look like a super erect penis to you, then you have issues. I find it hard to be believe that was coincidence. Highly unlikely. More like someone in need of some attention whoring.

Yeah it was on the news here last night, and i just lol'd. If it really is a copy of a painting from the Vatican then people just need to relax.
