    This created quite a controversy for about a day, until another Olympic controversy pushed it completely aside. (And the Olympics aren't over yet!)

      Please don't lie to yourself. It's two weeks old and my grandmother is still trying to figure out how to cancel Netflix... in protest of something she didn't even watch...

    I watch with interest your art videos, learn from them and will continue watching. However, I disagree this time with your comment. Clearly Jolly's intention was to start a controversy, by presenting a scene that clearly reminisces Da Vinci's Masterpiece. After the outrage, he would pull of the hat the other less known artwork. But his intentions backfired. That happens if you use art with a religious context, that offends many followers. In my opinion, the lesson is to keep away from using symbols that might be offensive, regardless of the religion.

      The same people who feel their Christianity must be accommodated at all times tend to bristle at the mere thought of accommodating any nonbeliever at any time.

      But what's even offensive about it lol. And why are Christians so easily offended?
