I would die
I mean. It isn’t a commentary on the Catholic Church either
`He has also said that while this work is not intended to denounce religion, it alludes to a perceived commercializing or cheapening of Christian icons in contemporary culture. Subsequently, he has explicitly rejected the assertion that he was motivated by blasphemy, saying instead that it was intended as a serious work of Christian art. He said, "What it symbolizes is the way Christ died: the blood came out of him but so did the piss and the shit. Maybe if Piss Christ upsets you, it's because it gives some sense of what the crucifixion actually was like... I was born and raised a Catholic and I've been a Christian all my life."`
From the wikipedia article.
So basically his claim is "I'm not the blasphemer, all of you are!"
hahaha
With respect to all of you on here, people like this are why I have a problem considering Catholic and Christian to be synonymous.
Because there are a lot of people out there like this guy that were raised catholic but are basically pagans.
I get the point, but doesn’t people’s offense imply that it isn’t cheapened? The crucifix literally has Jesus with nails in his hands and feet. Crown of thorns and a literal open spear wound. Blood is usually painted running down it too. How is this cheapening the crucifixion?
probably the gallons of piss
The only part sanitized is Jesus’s gonads being covered. That’s it.
I mean. This guy did something offensive to get attention
So, if the crucifixion isn't depicted as Jesus shitting and pissing as he slowly dies, it's commercially cheapened? Am I misunderstanding this?
Yeah, making the generous assumption that he is being honest here about not expecting offense, I'm legitimately curious as to how he thought it was going to be recieved.
in an art venue full a lefty artists
No crap.
who all hate Christians and Jesus
so he made a piece showing off how he pissed on Jesus
For a bit of good news, apparently the unveiling of this 'piece' led to the NEA getting it's budget cut, so it wasn't a total loss.
Exactly
*"What Christian would submerge Jesus on the cross in piss? lol"*
¿One trying to speak out about *irregularities* (to put it gently) in the church? 😕 ... And probably poor verbalization skills...
now answer the actual question.
What Christian would piss on a crucifix and then act surprised when people reacted negatively
Disgusting.
A swath of things including this only strengthens my want to homeschool a future child.
Why do they hate us.
Because they feel "repressed" or some shit as the over-indulgent fucks they are.
Civilizations generate their own destruction from without in case they aren't destroyed from within
reverse that
say it again
Just like any other life form
If nothing else kills you, old age will
unless you're a weird spore or some shit that never dies
They hate us because they can’t compete in a society of objective values. They can’t win the game with the established rules so they flip the table so nobody wins. The core of the leftist drones’ world view is complete absolution of personal responsibility and duty.
How can I improve versus Who can I blame.
Or they’re demons.
One or the other.
