[Romulus]

You think Michelangelo's art is filth and blasphemy?

According to the Catholic Encyclopedia, "A contemporary bestows praise which seems merited, when he says that Michelangelo in all the ninety years of his life never gave any grounds for suspecting the integrity of his moral virtue."

Michelangelo also sculpted David nude, in accordance with scripture. Perhaps it has never occured to you that this confrontation and defeat of the enemy of God's people is a prophecy of the Crucifixion. Well, think about it.

Well, think about it.

I am thinking about it. There are lots of passages in the old testament about uncovering someone's nakedness and how it was frowned upon.

When Peter realized Jesus was on the shore, he hastily put his robe on and jumped into the sea. I don't know one way or the other how God views nakedness and naked art. We are conditioned to accept it, but I can certainly live without it.

When you take an art class, they get people to pose naked and I simply would not do that. Maybe I'm a prude, but I never cared for open nakedness, art or otherwise. It is a very private thing imo.
