That is their problem walk away don't look at it. We wouldn't even know about this but some guy took offence.

This is true I guess. By being offended and making a fuss, we actually draw attention to something and make it worse.

Subject to school rules... of course...

Only if said rules don't infringe on rights...

Oh sure, everybody else gets to complain about their feelings being hurt but Christians are expected to turn the other cheek.

What a waste of talent. If that was my kid I'd be concerned and get him some help.

...and I'd lock my bedroom door at night and re-home the family pets, just in case...

 

[Hamster]

Ha ha I see what you did there.

It's the truth though. Imagine that kid made a similar artwork but depicted Muhammad or Buddha or a real clown like Trump. The school would've never allowed it.

It's the truth though.

It goes for everyone that thinks taking offence is a valid excuse.

Taking offense have landed people in jail and sanctioned. There are laws protecting people's feelings.

My art is not satanic, it's about greed in organised religion, says matric pupil

A KwaZulu-Natal north coast matric pupil, whose art is at the centre of a social media outcry, on Wednesday said the sketches and sculptures were a far cry from the "satanic panic" some people claimed it to be.

Amen to that.

Boom, smart kid. Well reasoned and wipes the floor clean of all this righteous indignation.

Yup, says so in the good book.

The only one that comes out of this with any integrity is the artist.

Can Pastor Anderson share with us all the details of his crusades to shut down paedophile priests, who abused countless children?

Snowflake Muslims with AK's , RPG/s And a-lot of explosive coming for you. It is called Respect. You don't infringe on other people's beliefs.

 

[Herr der Verboten]

The biggest issue here is that people will blindly follow what the pastor said. No one will be like, hey, wait you're missing the big picture. Because they were all raised to not question the dominie

Or the doctor.

Really ?

If someone believes marrying 10 year old girls is acceptable I must respect that ?

If someone let's their child die because they don't believe in medicine I must respect that ?

If people believe those of a different colour are sub-human I must respect that ?

It's the oldest cliche - respect is earned not demanded.

Nope wrong I have every right to critique anyone's belief.

No rule superscedes constitutional rights, we've seen this before with clothing and hair rules where the schools had to back down.

Instead of stones you have a social smear campaign instead with the aim of making the school's/child's life hell. Great christian that he is, he doesn't contact the child to find out if anything is wrong, doesn't sit down to share his views. Nope, straight the the outcry and shaming, just like ol Jesus used to do it. Oh wait ...
