I've seen the image in question, and it's not sexual. In fact  it's very tastefully done.

Nudity does not equal pornography.  Some of the greatest master of art have nude infants/children in them. I'd hate to see the police go and raid the Louve , or tear down the Sistine Chapel ceiling.

I agree,  Acadia,  after seeing the image myself and finding nothing sexual about it - my fear is that now any form of nudity will be viewed as "sexual" and we will begin the a downward spiral into some strange morality as has been seen in other parts of the world.....

You know what it comes down to? Common sense. Plain ordinary common sense, and it seems that so many people have lost theirs.

Heaven forbid a parent take a picture of their kid splashing around in the bathtub because they may have the police and CFS knocking down their door and charging them with possession of kiddy porn.

I can't even count how many pictures we have of my brother or me in a bathtub when we were infants and toddlers.  I thank God everyday that my parents weren't prudes and didn't make us feel embarrassed about our bodies.

able to know ourselves fully as we are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to say." - Ghandi
