Magnificat


Mother Mary said

"I rejoice
For behold, from now on
all generations will call me blessed...

or perhaps

many generations will call me blessed
and other generations will try to hold me down
keep me in my place
tell me what to do and when and how to do it

nonetheless, God's grace and justice
will last from generation to generation
the proud will be scattered
the mighty be torn down from their thrones
and the humble, the poor, the outcast,
they will be greeted, welcomed and lifted up
and the rich sent away, empty-handed!"

With a mother like that, 
it's no wonder Jesus turned out the way he did.

To "anonymous" who attacked the art with no comments on the topic: On topic, respectful adult conversations are always welcome. Critiques of the art are not the topic.

If you want to have a conversation about art, though, even then, it's welcome, as long as it's respectful and adult. The key word there is "have a conversation." "Your art is doody," is not a conversation, let alone an adult conversation.

I also prefer to have people's names.
