DC Tom Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 What person would make that? Mapplethorpe? But not the people that worship the icon of a man being tortured to death, while they symbolically practice ritual cannibalism. They have higher standards.

DC Tom Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 I hope your sarcasm button was on..... Set to low. I was raised Catholic, I know what the Holy Eucharist and the Crucifix mean in Catholic doctrine. I also know the Roman cross was a torture device, and partaking of someone's "body and blood" is cannibalistic...and that the crucifix in question in this thread is consistent with Christian iconography from the High Middle Ages. People simply have little clue about the history, heritage, and content of their religious beliefs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People simply have little clue about the history, heritage, and content of their religious beliefs. You are again, as usual, exactly right on this. Beauty, like faith is in the eye or heart of the beholder. Observe Botticelli's "Birth of Venus" - an unquestioned masterpiece of the Renaissance - and note that the supreme master artist of line completely ignores the natural proportions of the human body. Her neck is far too long as are her arms and legs for his Venus to be representative of a real woman's form. Her shoulders slope in a decidedly unnatural manner, yet - the overall effect is that to most... she's beautiful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevestojan Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Right, as if any of you, given JC's magical powers, wouldn't give yourself a huge crank. I mean once you figure out you can turn water to wine, taking care of Mr Happy is the logical progression. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
