Finally it's done! That's the first time I've colored a draw I made and I even think it looks better then the older one, that had 120 favourites and that was by far the most famous deviation I've made.
This work is about the similarities between was Jesus pretched and the values communism is based on, values like equality, fraternity, solidarity and mutual respect. But besides this, this is also a critic about how the "Holy" Church has used God and Jesus to justify their actions like genocide, mass murdering, torturing and sacking and how a belief that was based on equality and rejection from meterial goods (Jesus sad: leave eveything and come with me) can have a church is corrupted with a very rigid hierarchy and a pope that wears Prada shoes.
That's why for me the catholic church has no credibity and doesn't deserve to use the name of Jesus anymore ...

Not all churches are like that dude...As I said earlier, you have your beliefs and I have mine. I was only giving my opinion and wasn't trying to offend yours. I can see that it was pointless talking with you. Have a nice life
i was just refereing to the catholic church that i know I respect those who help others inthe name of God, i just don't like institutionalized religious people
-- "If the things are to be used and the people to be loved, why do we love the things and use the people?"
Alright I can concur with that, especially with how f#$ked up society is nowadays. I meant what I said before though in a non sarcastic way...I hope you have a wonderful life.
Alright...first off, let me say that I'm liking the drawing and your reasoning behind it. I am a proud devoted Christian and believer of The Bible and I agree that people need to stop being such tightwads! It is YOUR opinion and YOUR art and I respect that. Now here is my opinion and I too am asking for that same respect. I noticed that you said you USED to be a Christian but stopped after reading the Old Testament due to the heinous crimes committed. I'll be honest, when I started reading through Deuteronomy, I was a bit shocked, thinking to myself why would God condone such awful things such as rape! Well, I did some reading and the answer to that statement is that God in fact did NOT condone rape. He is to this day, a loving God who simply asks for us to believe in his son Jesus Christ and to confess our sins in order to have eternal life. (Sorry, I don't mean to preach here or offend whatsoever ) Here is a link to a FANTASTIC article that explains in detail about rape in the Old Testament. [link] Hope you enjoy the read and keep up the good work! Totally faving this!!
There's nothing to explain. The Bible in not the book of God as the Church does not represent God. The church took over the idea of God and Jesus Christ teachings and institutionalized then into an organization that seeks only power and dominance...
The only true man of God are those who live in poverty and dedicate their lives in helping others...
