Thanks go to Mike who linked to this article on the recent debate about naked child photos in art by the Anglican Dean of the Sydney Cathedral, Phillip Jensen. A good Christian perspective on the debate.
So how do we discriminate between "art" and pornography? The problem is usually posed in the impossible question - "where do you draw the line?" There is no answer. There is a thing called pornography and there is a thing called art. You can recognise the difference when the two extremes are put side by side, but there is no clear dividing line between the two. Beautiful art can be pornographic and pornography can be artistically beautiful.
