"What we need is less rhetoric."
Says who.
I've studied art for a long time. I could care less if 666 is written on Michaelangelo's works which they aren't since he was very devout.
Artists have forever placed things in their works for fun and games and giggles. This isn't new.
Ignore "on."
First you call this nonsense(evidence of a closed mind on this matter?) and then utter the word blasphemy in regards to it.
Like I said, we need less rhetoic, and more objective and factually-based arguments.
