presidio9 A German Protestant youth group has put together a 2006 calendar with 12 staged photos depicting erotic scenes from the Bible, including a bare-b reasted Delilah cutting Samson's hair and a nude Eve offering an apple. "There's a whole range of biblical scriptures simply bursting with erotic ism," said Stefan Wiest, the 32-year-old photographer who took the titil lating pictures. Anne Rohmer, 21, poses on a doorstep in garters and stockings as the pros titute Rahab, who is mentioned in both New and Old Testaments. "We wante d to represent the Bible in a different way and to interest young people ," she told Reuters. "Anyway, it doesn't say anywhere in the Bible that you are forbidden to s how yourself nude." "It's just wonderful when teenagers commit themselves with their hair and their skin to the bible," he said.
View Replies To: presidio9 If you're going to give us Biblical nudes, you have to give us something spiritual. The lifeless Christ in the Pieta is nearly nude, so laid bare , so powerful. We see the Virgin mourning, we feel her pain, we see the flesh of Christ sacrficed. And then we have this little gnome in this German caldender...

For that matter, what's the deal with calendars and nudity? These days it seems like everyone just has to go out and make a nude cale ndar of themselves. A novelty calendar is now one where people in it wea r clothes.
CH Spurgeon has some very good writings based upon the Song of Solomon. H e utilizes the intense love between the bride and His wife as representa tive of Jesus and the Church. But, of course, that is too deep for peopl e who are simply looking to look for what they deem erotic.

All who honored h er despise her, for they have seen her nakedness;
This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Because you poured out your wealth and exposed your nakedness in your promiscuity with your lovers, and because of all your detestable idols, and because you gave them your children's blood...
Work by a 72-year-old homosexual inspired by his younger male lovers. The same type of inspiration used for male nude frescoes in Vatican bathroo ms. Drives home the point that mixing religion and erotica are nothing new.
What depths a religious prostitute will sink to in order to sell his reli gion and fill his 'church'. Here in America many churches are sponsoring all night "Christian Rave" parties for youth. Can outright toleration a nd eventual promotion of immorality be far behind. Those evangelical Christians who ARE concerned about moral compromise and mega church marketing of religion v sincere evangelism and love as God 's methods of filling His House this article should serve as a warning o f the 'slippery slope'.
View Replies To: peyton randolph You might wish to read up on art history: Sistine ceiling was finished by a 37yrs old (1512), Judgment was finished by a 66yrs old (1541). In his 70s he was painting the walls of the Capella Paolina - next door to the Sistine, but completely different. And it was Leonardo who was a homo, while Michelangelo was merely manic-depressive.
But I've poured salt in my eyes, so now it's all comfor tably blurry. Now I've never really had cause to become a good judge of feminine aesthe tics (I just need to know what my man likes), but those are some ugly wo men. I'd forgotten just how ugly they are, (even in pictures where they' re trying to look good). Just goes to show: with liberals, the ugliness inside shows right through. How do any of those liberal gals ever expect to get themselves a man look ing like that? And yes, I know, some of them have husbands, but I can gu arantee not one of them has an actual man.

View Replies To: presidio9 "German calendar depicts erotic moments from Bible including a bare-breasted Delilah cutting Samson's hair and a nude Eve of fering an apple." Any idiot who finds such mundane pics of unclothed women from the Bible a s "erotic" worthy of spending their money on and hanging on their wall, desperately needs to find a mate.

This is the verse represented in your illustration: Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were na ked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.
