I don't care how many "artists" have chosen to portray the human body...It doesn't matter to me whether or not my opinion is in the minority or the majority...

What matters is this...

God designed the human body to be beautiful. So called "artists" have taken what God created and placed it in different poses on different canvases and created the vast world we call "art." They didn't add anything to it, or take anything away from it. All they did was take credit for creating this so called "art." Art is in the eye of the beholder, obviously. A tin can can mean a whole lot to somebody and be nothing more than a tin can to another.

The problem with the "art" you speak of here is that there is no rhyme or reason to it. It is not art. What if Ray had posted nekkid pics of himself? Would you have been quite as interested in the "art"? I doubt it...

So, again, I say that "art" is in the eye of the beholder, and as much as you would like to classify "Ray's Pix" as art, I can only classify anything that "sluttifies" the body as pornography.

The old saying goes "Garbage in, Garbage out." You fill your mind with smut and soon you get a dirty mouth and mind. No longer are you looking at women as beautiful beings, but rather as objects, that one can obtain in various positions suited to ones liking. When was the last time your head turned at the slightest hint of skin and immediately thought of where that skin lead to? Eh?

Again, I have not seen "Ray's Pix" and prefer not to, but if they are anything like he is describing, they are nothing but a private moment shared between he and his wife that he is now demoralizing others with. No longer are they simple shots of his wife for him to drool over, but she has become the object several guys in here have begged to see. And if those individual guys were to happen upon his wife (at a CEG meet or whenever), would they think of anything other than what they saw in the picture? Wishing to see more? Maybe a live peepshow?

Unfortunately, as humans, we are very in tune with the artists of the day. We can look at history and see how artists have nearly defined and certainly captured the times in their works. The human body though, is timeless. God created it so that we as humans would find a mate, live and procreate together, not so we could lust over one another.
