    National Geographic magazine is porn to some people. I guess you're right about the condition of the soul, but I've seen nudes as beautiful, but not sexual.

    Me too but I am first of all a woman and women are not nearly as moved sexually by visual as men...and secondly because OF porn and it's addictive nature on men they can't see the art...that was my point..Christians have to be aware of this and not allow our liberty be a stumbling block to others as much as is possible without coming into bondage ourselves...someone painting nudes, I would advise, be prayerful and obedient...

    The spirit of things, what is being expressed, can matter more than the visuals. Especially if there is no frontal nudity.

    How people interpret things in their heads on top of that is a different matter.

    How would you counsel a Christian who was studying art and had to paint a nude as part of his studies
    Maybe he could paint an infant with only the bottom showing? That's a tough one. I don't have the answer, sounds like a conscience issue. If his conscience is grieved, he has his answer.
    When your praise match your prayers, the answer will come.
