True....and it's a ghastly grotesque looking thing......heck I had issues enough with naked statues and flying naked cherubims.....but that mostrocity isn't worth calling any sort of art in any church...quite the opposite.

“heck I had issues enough with naked statues and flying naked cherubims”

I ran into a buzz saw when I posted in a thread that much of what we call” art”...even depictions of naked persons on religiously themed paintings or statues such as the Michaelangelo’s David would not be allowed during the Millenial reign of Christ. I also pointed out that Michaelangelo’s naked “David” was not even correct as the statue depicting him shows an uncircumcised male, where as the real David would have been circumcised! Much of what we Christians accept as art and beautiful will probably be done away with during the reign of Christ as they appeal to the lust of the eye and to the lust of the flesh. It seems excessive but the Bible does say God will destroy everything that exalts itself against him and men living in the millennial period will be subject to filters on thought and behavior.

The Guardian Angel Cathedral in Las Vegas has a mural of naked flying men above the altar, reminds me of that. Very similar to the painting in the movie “Around the World in 80 Days” with Jackie Chan.
