How Low Can We Go?

According to this article, there is an art museum in Loveland, CO that has images of Jesus receiving oral sex from another man.

A Montana woman has been charged with criminal mischief after allegedly taking a crowbar to a controversial art museum display in Colorado that critics say portrays Jesus Christ receiving oral sex from another man.

The piece, on display since Sept. 11 at the tax-funded Loveland Museum Gallery in Loveland, Colo., includes several images of Jesus, including one in which he appears to be receiving oral sex from a man as the word "orgasm" appears beside Jesus’ head.

And here is what the artist had to say;

"Should we as artists, or any free-thinking people, have to be subjected to fear of violent attacks for expressing our sincere concerns? I made a collage with a comic book and an illustration of a religious icon to express the corruption of something precious and spiritual," Chagoya told FoxNews.com. "There is no nudity, or genitals, or explicit sexual contact shown in the image. There is a dressed woman, a religious icon's head, a man showing his tongue, and a skull of a Pope in the upper right corner of the controversial page. I did not make a picture of Christ. I used symbols as one would use words in a sentence to critique corruption of the sacred by religious institutions."

"Violence is the opposite of what Jesus, Mohammad or Buddha taught. I am amazed that some of the followers don't adhere to the teachings. Agree to disagree and love thy neighbor," he said.

Now here is an interesting thought....what if the same artist had made a picture of Mohammad receiving oral sex from another man? I would guess the artist may be in hiding right now as the death threats would have already been rolling in. Also, all the Muslim countries of the world would have been burning U.S. flags saying, "death to America"....and the liberal media would have all been contacting him asking why he is so provocative? Doesn't he realize that he is hurting millions of Muslims feelings by taking their cherished prophet and subjecting him to such degradation? In addition the military probably would have contacted him to say he is endangering lives of our military over in Muslim lands. Wait a tic....didn't all this just happen when some dude in FL even threatened to burn a Koran?

So the lesson is....you can trample ANY religious icon you want in America (especially Jesus)....just don't trample Islam because you may offend the Muslims.
