Yes, and "Oh no, these pedophiles have links to the Brick Testament!!!"
Well, they probably have links to MSN.COM as well, if they're using IE.
Depicting Bible stories as Brendan does, is a wonderful artistic endeavour.
If we start saying, "You can't have these pics 'cause child molestors get
off on it", well then all those teen magazines will have to be removed. As
well, describing the scene, as the Bible does, is what Brendan depicts.
Censor his pics, don't we then have to censor the Bible?
I also have "Brick Testament" bookmarked, as I am sure many of you do. Does
that make us all accomplices to child porn?
The only thing I thought that was 'honest journalism' was the quotation
marks around "Rev". That's the only redeeming thing about the entire
article--the rest was just hysteria.
I support Brendan in his artistic pursuits. Keep up the great work.
