I love the art, I wish you would have used Religious Fascists, for a time I was a christian and while one I never held hate for anyone.

That is actually a good point with the word "Religious", and in some sence you are right. Or in a very good sense since I clearly understand your point. I think the reason that I choose Christian is because in Denmark, where I live, is known to be a Christian country, but not many Danes are very religous at all. If you look at the statistic about how many who go to church every sunday it will be 1-2 persons per church if the priest are lucky. Except from Christmas eve of course. That everning / afternoon there will be plenty in the church. (There have actually been talk about making the churchs to become libraries or other public domains that are more useful for the sociaty) But in my overall view a lot who call themself Christian here in Denmark haven´t read the bible, and most stories they can from it is seen in the television. Some are taught in school as well I will say, but to be honest I don´t remember much, and so it is with a lot I have known since a little kid. But that is my point of view, and of course there are really believing Christan Danes as well. They are just not in my inner circle since I haven´t met them. So I guess when I think of Christians in Denmark that says: "Yeah I am a Christian" which almost everyone does even though they say they don´t know if they believe in god, go to the church or read the bible. I think it is contradictory. But the Denmark is a Christian country. It has becomes its culture, and that´s why I guess most answer. Yes of course I am a Christian.
Damn that reply was long. But to go a little back. I want you to know I don´t hate anyone. I made this piece of art and the this -> katr14.deviantart.com/art/Life… only because I wanted to make a statement who says: "I have the right to be who I want to be. I have the right to love the one I want to love. I have the right to be here." It is about freedom. Or at least that is what it is to me. That is why I made this piece of art. So it is not about hate. The title is a methaphor, and actually my inspiration behind both pieces of art. I watch it in tv on a demonstration sign, and then it hitted me. I had to do this. It was a great way of showing it. Or at least to me

Well most are babtised here as well, and accepted Christ as an adult. But the acception og being a Christ as adult is more about the party thrown for the teenager. Most doesn´t believe in god at all, or take it seriously. It is about the party, the gifts and the money they will receive.
So yes you can say it doesn´t hold much meaning definately.
Well I think it could be nice to shake a lot of people, not just christian, but people who might make stereotypes, and who are hypocritical, and not openminded. But I don´t shake them. I just hope I can give give a message through my art

in the gospels a Pharisee ( i think) what the most important commandment is. and Jesus answers after loving God first and foremost, love your brother as you do yourself.
these are the most important words in the Bible in my opinion, naturally brother meaning all humans, not siblings. so yes shout against intolerance with your art, it's a great thing you do! for until we can all love each other without conditions and codicils, without judgement
what right do we have to call ourselves Christians, or what ever. how can we even love ourselves?

thank you, I'm getting old and the world needs people like you to stand up and shout wether it's with their voices or their art or their music or behind a pulpit or a podium people listen in so many ways, and you have a strong voice in your art!

you should be, I get so sad,.. these days it seems that more and more people are tightening the circle of people that they care for, when you'd hope with history, and the advancements in communications that there would be these giant multi-country groups of love, caring and understanding without judgment. no damn qualifications. to enter....you know what i mean? that's why I'm proud when i see someone saying stand-up to hate or judgement of others.
