Pakistan's leading arts college has pushed boundaries before in this conservative nation. But when a series of paintings depicting Muslim clerics in scenes with strong homosexual overtones sparked an uproar and threats of violence by Islamic extremists, it was too much....The college's decision to cave to Islamist pressure underscores how space for progressive thought is shrinking in Pakistan...Fraudulent homoerotic depictions of prominent clerics are "progressive thought"? Libel and slander are not welcome anywhere. This author is wacko.

No images of the offensive material??? I want to make sure that my mural of Mohammad blowing Satan is OK. After all I don’t want to offend anyone.

Apologies ... I couldn't find any of the paintings related to this news article. Here is a painting though of Mad Mo in Hell by Gustave Dore. I think the artist was inspired by Dantes' Inferno.

Actually I think it is 28 not 18. 72 hori + 28 boys =100. It is promised that in their paradise the faithful can ejaculate 100 times a day.

Muslim liberal arts!! Interesting considering islam is all male oriented.

Is it not satan that rules worldly delights? Islam already has a problem with wine in their paradise as wine on earth is Satan’s handiwork! How did satan get to Allah’s paradise?
