I wonder if evangelicals are allowed to study art in college? Or do their art books ignore all medieval and Renaissance painting?

I have a personal preference for Botticelli, of course as Catholics we realize that an increase in the appreciation of humanism leads to an increase in the appreciation of the divine.

We are able to understand that God gave us beauty to be able to celebrate His creation and appreciate Him more.

Zeta-Jones is purt near divine; in MY estimation!

I like Botticelli as well. Some of our friends here prefer paintings of dogs playing poker.
