Michelle, <<sort of OT>> the Maplethorpe "issue" was not the control of pornography, rather the NEA's support of controversial "art" with federal tax dollars. Taking a religiously significant image, placing it in a jar of urine and then photographing it (all under the financial auspices of our tax money) can at least be considered offensive to a large number of people, not just Mr. Fallwell. Would you not consider it offensive if a skinhead did the same thing with an artifact from a synagog? Personally, I think Maplethorpe is a crackpot, who thrives on publicity brought about through extremism. Because you believe he is an "artist" does not mean we, the general tax-paying public, should provide support for him financially. Mr. K.
