Quote - Child porn in whatever form... Photographic and Digital ......is wrong! And whatever we can do to stop it should be done.
Art showing children in their natural state, as long as artistic and not pornographic isn't wrong.
I do agree though if a picture shows someone that looks over 18 then it should be allowed.
The problem is that one man's ART is another man's Porn, and visa-vesa. The best judge of what is porn and what is art is the artist himself, and in THAT it is best if he is left unfettered and untrammelled. I AM THE BEST JUDGE AND GUARDIAN OF MY OWN CONSCIENCE! And if, in the name of ARTISTIC FREEDOM, digital renders should be an interpreted as an advocacy for the right to perpetrate child porn, then so be it!
