I watched videos 2, 3 and 5 and saw nothing pornographic in any of them. :confused:

No, I said that because I'm puzzled at what another poster on here was saying about how they had pornographic images in them, and I don't want people on here who haven't seen them to think they are pornographic (at least the ones that I saw, since I can't speak for the others).

I watched the videos before I read what epiphany wrote.

By the way, if your question was intended as a joke, it was a pretty questionable one.

I think we sometimes tend to glorify art from past ages.  There was crap back then too.

As for the human body, meh, some of it is pornographic.  Michelangelo’s stuff is homoerotic filth.

I’m not a fan of idealizing stuff just because it’s old.  Some artists even in Medieval times had psychological problems.  We’ve had heretics and perverts and crazies in every age.

See, it was made by a Medieval monk, so it must be good.

It is very ironic. Some beautiful pieces of art work of Our Lord and Our Lady were painted by people who also painted nude women and pagan gods.
