Nicely put Marvin!

Kirk Richards sent me the book he and Steven Gjertson wrote concerning uplifting God in art - and the history of this subject. These are two very devout religious successful artists and they clearly spell out their use of nudity in art and give very detailed lectured on it aimed at the folks that could be offended.

I'll try and find some quotes.

Again, there aren't a lot of members volunteering to be moderators and this adds another administrative thing to handle on the Forum. Perhaps in the future.

Great addition Cynthia! Very well put Marvin.

I think there is a obvious line for fine art and "sensational" nudes, I guess it would be a matter of discretion in a decision like this. I was blown away while visiting the Vatican and seeing plaster fig leafs on beautiful marble sculptures, the ones the painted with gold leaf really blew me away.

The human body is beautiful

Whew... you've never been to my house!
