The USPS is not validating anything. It's publishing stamps the public will buy and use happily. If you don't want a Madonna and Child stamp buy a different one.
We had that problem with the Roosevelt stamps. Post offices all over the country would be down to their last stock on hand and it'd be Roosevelt stamps the locals wouldn't touch because, as they said "They'd not kiss Roosevelt's a**". That's about the time I went to work for 'em.

I think I would be that way with a XXX-42 stamp (or even worse a PIAPS-44 stamp).
On the other hand I still have a few Reagan stamps that I can't bear to use because then I wouldn't have them anymore.

Heh...they sound like good people...
