"‘Remember, they chose to insult Our Blessed Mother on the eve of the Immaculate Conception, and the holy day itself.’ The episode in question featured a statue of the Virgin Mary spraying blood from her vagina."

What exactly does that say about the Madonna? Nothing. It’s potty humor nonsense, intended to tweak sensitivities through irreverence.

I’m going to crash.

Correct, since it was not the Madonna who did anything, so it says nothing about her. But that's not the point.

Our objection is about the disrespect shown toward the Madonna. Maybe I'm dense, but you wouldn't view it as disrespectful toward your mother if someone showed a photo or statue of her in the same situation? I know I would if they did it to a representation of my mother; and I would object. And that's what I'm doing.
