Sacrilegious?

Sep 10

Found this the other day… and it was disturbing… to say the least.

*WARNING* This following picture after the break is not for the faint of heart… Is the following picture “sacrilegious”?

by far not the most controversial depiction of the last supper floating out on teh interwebs. srsly.

i run http://teensagainstporn.com … you can imagine the things that land in our inbox. in case this comment confuses anyone, not all teens are against porn. in fact, the ones that are pro porn can get downright hostile that our site would even exist.

I would say it is indeed sacrilege.

Sacrilege being anything that violates or profanes anything that is held to be sacred.

In this case, the sacrilege isn’t in the parody of the original painting, but in the depiction of a grotesque misinterpretation of the words of Jesus.

Russ makes a great point: the true sin is at the level it does hurt to the essence of Christ’s teaching and being. Most people would just stop at he parody of the painting. Good call, Russ.
