Visual Arts versus Pornography
Children should be brought up in a conducive environment so that they learn to uphold the morals demarcated by most religions. In most Muslim countries where some women are still behind veils Pornography is not condoned. Even in the West where nudity doesn't create such a uproar Sensationalism is not fully accepted--- because when Satchi gallery of London exhibited a painting of virgin Mary with a photograph of a pedophile superimposed on it, the people in London picketed against it.
I am sure that artist was also protesting against sex crimes at the same time referring to Christianity but it misfired.
In my oppinion one of the purposes of art is to be of some aesthetic value while it is conveying a message.
