Is artwork depicting Jesus Christ as nude or with pubic

[Skwim]

People can be stupidly petty. I've seen lots of nekid folk.

There's nothing like the internet, is there.

Nobody seemed bothered by this (King David) in 1504,

Heh. Remind me of the time when some harmless pranksters put a diaper on a statue of David in my area.

It was hilarious.

I think the human body is best covered up, male or female.

Probably.

"Naked people have little or no influence in society" .

 

[Road Less Traveled]

I don't think it is particularly attractive.

I wonder what would happen if all females stopped shaving?

 

[Rival]

I wonder what would happen if all females stopped shaving?

I wish men would shave. Alas, not to be.

 

[Road Less Traveled]

I wish men would shave. Alas, not to be.

All men shaving and all women not shaving would be interesting.

 

[Rival]

All men shaving and all women not shaving would be interesting.

I didn't shave when I was at school and was bullied mercilessly for it.

Some poor human nature.

That wouldn’t be a good idea then considering how most people are still treated, especially in school. Where I’m from there are all sorts of things designed in the education system to teach about bullying, yet the same bullying continues to go on. Especially as children get older and into higher grades. Even the quiet students who just mind their own business, that can tell are unique and different from the rest.... still bullied for no reason.

That's not at all clear.

Although I can understand that a religionist who already has a belief might think it is.

It means the Crucifixion should mean nothing to those who have left the belief, the faith.
Hebrews 6:5
The Sacrifice being only contextual to belief in the religious aspect of Jesus.
Hebrews 6:4
Hebrews 6:5
Hebrews 6:6

Anything else is 'another religion', and non associated with the Crucifixion.

 

[Kangaroo Feathers]

Yes. It is also blasphemy.

How so?

Not that David's!

And is it not made in the "image of God?" Why would you want to cover that up?

 

[Evangelicalhumanist]

I just hope people don't look at the unclothed
body of Christ in some horny sort of way.
That would not be pious of thought.

You do worry about the oddest things...

 

[Evangelicalhumanist]

Yes, the viewer of the naked Christ has low self-esteem and is ashamed of his own body image, perhaps. Unattractive people most likely scorn sex and nudity. Old men often are dirty horny old men while old women are sex and nudity haters. Women go through menopause and have no sexual interest at a certain age.

I think you are over-stereotyping here.

Is that an iPhone he's holding?

[Kangaroo Feathers]

I think you are over-stereotyping here.

Or projecting

 

[Evangelicalhumanist]

Jesus had nude breasts??? You're kidding.

.

There's no frubal for "silly" … seems a shame, really.

 

[Evangelicalhumanist]

That's the way the story goes anyway. (Actually, to be annoyingly super picky, he was "hanged" on the cross.)

.

Well, if we're into picky, he was neither hung nor hanged (one having to do with masculine pride, the other with dangling by the neck). He was crucified.

 

[RabbiO]

Christian old ladies probably made nudity a "perverse" thing. They are old, unattractive and therefore jealous of beautiful young bodies.

More "American David," I think....
