Free Expression, Public Funding and Blasphemy...
October 1, 2020
New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani and the Catholic League for Religious and
Civil Rights are leading the charge to shut down a controversial exhibit
at the Brooklyn Museum of Art. Titled “Sensations,” the exhibition
includes a painting which some consider to be “blasphemous” and an insult to
religious belief.
The controversy touches on many issues, including public funding of the
arts, free expression, and the right to criticize, question or even “insult”
religious beliefs and practices. What better excuse for another American
Atheist Magazine poll?
Once again, we have several questions for visitors to respond to. For
further information, please read
the Flash Line story on this controversy,
and the commentary in Mr. G’s latest
On Target column.
