The Advocate online featured the Passion Series and Kittredge Cherry's book on it again, a big spread with all the paintings reproduced.
Right now, there is a big flame war going on at The Advocate's Facebook page. Most of it is the usual "Sick!! Sacrilege!! Apostasy!! Why don't you paint a gay Muhammad?" from the fundamentalists, and "Jesus didn't exist! This is a fucking waste of time!" from the atheists.
What a bore.
On the other hand, The Advocate's Facebook page for the article is now at 332 likes and 133 shares. And The Advocate online's article has been shared a total of 646 times on Facebook and Twitter.
Don't let the flame wars get you down! We've still got a long way to go in Lent. Along with the ignorant comments there were some real gems from new people appreciating your work.
