Hundreds of protesters have been fuming for days in Loveland, Colorado over an art exhibition with a 12-panel lithograph where Jesus gets head. Yesterday, long-haul truck driver Kathleen Folden attacked it with a crowbar, screaming “How can you desecrate my lord?” The blasphemy-buster shattered the glass, tore up the art, bloodied her hands and sat there until the SWAT team arrived. All that over intersex Jesus getting oral foreplay, barely.
The Misadventures of the Romantic Cannibals by Enrique Chagoya also features “comic book characters, Mexican pornography, Mayan symbols, ethnic stereotypes” and wait… is that the prophet Muhammad? Uh-oh.
The artist says he has nothing against Jesus.
I’m very sorry to hear that somebody had such a violent reaction to my work… I don’t expect people to agree with me, but let’s have a civil discussion. I’ve been getting a lot of hate mail that doesn’t have any logical discussion behind it.
Why are jesusfreaks such cocksuckers?
I love how Religious people throw out their beliefs and morals, at their convenience, to cause harm to their peers.
No one who's trying to have civil discourse also makes Jesus porn. I think it's funny that he made this, but he can't try to turn around and claim to be trying to have civil discourse, unless its with people other than those he's trying to offend about what happens when you offend someone's core belief. I doubt that's what he's trying. He can't wear two hats, just like religious people shouldn't be allowed to either.
What you do not realize in the small minds abounding is that this is the Son of the Creator of the universe. Open your eyes…. If the artist painted your dad or mom, how would you feel. This is our earthly father in heaven. Open your eyes to the truth.
Right, Jesus NEVER had ANY sex, just ask Mary Magdalene…
@Calvin Jesus as the literal" sof of the Lord" is a dogma. Son of God was (and still is) a Hebrew title used for people that could interpret the holy scrolls and explain them to the masses. A professor of religion if you so will. Please, never forget that of the countless evangelists only 4 were selected to be in the Bible. The 4 that fitted the political agenda of the roman empire.
I've seen a dozen blogs on this so far and yours is the first one that's noticed that was Mohammed. Props.
