I don't know if it's offensive, but it was a really stupid ad, not least because it mentions Christmas, when the crucifixion is Easter. And the connection to the lottery is non-existent-counter-intuitive actually, since the New Testament says, "The love of money is the root of all evil" and what is the lottery about, but love of money?I think people tend to be very easy to offend, when they have been so well trained to be offended by certain things. Art that is critical of religion or uses religious images is one of these things. I suspect most Muslim people would not react as badly to a cartoon about the prophet, except for the fact that some clergy have told them to. You have to be trained in what is offensive, but you also have to choose to be offended. I personally don't see anything wrong with the image itself, but I can't make the connection to a lottery, even with the slogan.
You aren't big on the prosperity gospel, are you?I don't know if it's offensive, but it was a really stupid ad, not least because it mentions Christmas, when the crucifixion is Easter.

The imitatio Christi stories and pix must be, the rest -- perhaps.By that site that site's standard, are CF and Foundation ongoing and extended hate crimes against Christianity?

I don't think we'd be high on their Christmas card list, no....By that site that site's standard, are CF and Foundation ongoing and extended hate crimes against Christianity?
It's not even like female crucifix images haven't appeared in churches.I don't think we'd be high on their Christmas card list, no....
An interesting question. There was someone who was here about a year ago, who said he was a minister in one of the mainline Protestant denominations in the US (I forget which one and his screen name). He was interested in the site and not at all offended, though I haven't seen him since then.By that site that site's standard, are CF and Foundation ongoing and extended hate crimes against Christianity?
