Celebrating Blasphemy in Manhattan (The Return of "Piss Christ")
NRO ^ | 9/27/2012 | Mario Loyola

Posted on 09/27/2012 5:07:06 PM PDT by mojito

....Coming so soon on the heels of Obama’s condemnations of the Mohammed spoof trailer, Representative Michael Grimm (R., N.Y.) is calling on President Obama to condemn the Piss Christ exhibit.

...[I]f you really want him to condemn the Piss Christ, this is what you have to do: Find an enterprising young artist willing to create a “Piss Mohammed” version of Serrano’s work, and ask the museum to hang it right next to the Piss Christ. It could be part of a “Piss Religion” exhibit. If the gallery declines (as it surely would), then perhaps one could gather together a small group of Manhattan atheists to march “piss portraits” of Mohammed and his fellow deities / prophets right up 1st Avenue past the United Nations, in homage to the First Amendment.

Now there's an interesting thought experiment.

I wonder how many bold avant-garde Manhattanites will take this up?

A show of hands?

Oh, not so many, I see.

Put in for an NEA grant to produce a work titled “P!ss Mohammed”. It will be a performance/appropriated piece.

The art will consist of the proposal itself, the rejection letter, the controversy from the State Department and a limp wristed General and the President’s press secretary.

If you are asked to provide a description of the work, tell them that it is a photo of a photo of “P!ss Chr!st” and that the “art” is in the difference the two religious figures are treated and perceived by the liberal establishment and difference of the expressions of outrage by the inflamed of the religious followers of each tradition.

It is conceptual since the only “affront” to Islam is in the name of the work itself and plenty of sorry sacks of sh!t have been named Mohammed with no outrage from the muslim world (Mohammed Atta, for example).

I wanna see Piss Mohamhead. Or Piss Allah. Yeah, that’s the ticket. I’d do it but I’m not an artiste.

Bummer, that.

Piss Allah, that has a nice ring to it. Piss Allahu Akbar.

Did I just say that out loud?

Does anyone else think it’s kinda suspicious timing here?
Right as Obama is apologizing to the moslems about a blasphemous movie, right as he is there in front of the UN explaining how “sometimes Christians in America must tolerate blasphemy”, thaat suddenly “piss christ” from the late 80s gets dredged up and put on display in the SAME town?

I want to see proof that this Serrano exhibit was planned more than 2 weeks ago. Somehow, Obama is behind this. It’s either to show them that we blaspheme against Christians too, or to give a nod to the moslem brotherhood as to where he really stands.

Just very suspicious of such a “coincidence”.

Yes. The secularists are throwing down the gauntlet. They’re making the final checks to see if ANYTHING will outrage us into action. By condemning any insult to izlam one week and then dragging this blasphemy out of the closet the next, they are testing the waters for the first round of shariah.

But, you know what? Let them do their worst. We have Jesus Christ, the only way to the Father and they can’t take that unless we let them. Their pitiful attempt at shock art only seals their fates, not ours. But I do admit that a part of me would love to see 10,000 men in white tabards with red crosses entering NYC at one time to visit the museum and set things right.

If anyone reacts violently to this display watch how fast Obama will come out for “free speech”.But when it come to any muzzi bombing Christians never mind doing so because of a cartoon or a movie nobody saw the man defends that reaction .

Is obama going to tell his “justice” department to find a false reason to arrest andres serrano? Like an unpaid parking ticket?
No, because obama, like all leftists, hates Christianity and wants it eliminated.
