but if they are specifically going to mention an act by name, they damn well had better enforce it.
Or else!!!.....what?
Anyone with a bit of intelligence knows what's going on here.
Essentially, there are two agendas:
Some people don't like the TOS restrictions on "adult" art - and this debate represents a back-door attempt to point out a supposed inconsistency in TOS enforcement. So, by this line of reasoning -- a depiction of the Crucifixion is on the same level as a porn torture pic. Bizarre. Convoluted.
Likewise, other individuals don't want to see ANY religious ((but more specifically, and more powerfully - Christian)) images depicted AT ALL.
These two ideas wrap up the problem in a nutshell, I think.
Kudos to RR for making the right decision in the face of wrong-headed opposition.
