My Sweet Lord Canceled

Radical Islam, meet Radical Christianity! Complaints from Catholics and death threats directed at the artist, Cosimo Cavallaro, have lead to the cancelation of the My Sweet Lord exhibit which featured a nude Jesus sculpted from chocolate. This is just silly. There’s nothing wrong with a sculpture of Jesus posed as if on the cross made of chocolate. And as for being naked, well in all likelihood Jesus was naked when He was crucified. That was part of the shame and humiliation of the whole thing. Cardinal Egan should know better than to be a part of the kind of fanaticism that can only chase people away from Christ rather than lead them to a relationship with Him. Oh well, I guess he thinks that chocolate bunnies for Easter are just fine, but a sweet chocolate Jesus is just too much to bear!
