Theodore Sturgeon was probably right: there’s been bad art throughout the centuries, much of it Christian. But once Christianity and Art split, around 200 years ago, most Christian art has been pretty bad.
But they haven’t, not any more than they were married before (hint: they weren’t). There have been both secular and religious themes throughout the centuries, there continue to be both today.
I imagine that people have been complaining about bad religious art forever.

I wondered that for years. It took looking it up to post the link in this thread for me to notice the nail in the other hand.
However, if a dude I remembered being buried showed up suddenly and was chasing after me, I’d be tempted to pound a stake in him, too. Vampire Jesi are no joke.
Good point. I didn’t even notice the nail/spike.
