SciFi and Fantasy Art: Devils deserts

You are one sick person.Your going to burn in hell for that picture

In response to all the people complaining about the star, BLOW ME. The pictures great.

Hey, I'm a witch myself, and yeah the pentacle isn't exactly proper, but aren't we being silly? Look at the picture! I wish -I- could draw that well! I'm not offended, because it was a problem with ignorance, not malevolence. GREAT picture!!

To the "You are a sick person, you will burn in hell for this picture" GET...A...LIFE >.>

It's people like you that make Christians seem like such bad people -.- this is a drawing...a DRAWING...it tells his imangnation...not his beliefs..

To the offended Wiccans: I understand your offence...me..I have such a mix of beliefs that I can't say that I have a Religon...o.0;;;

But please this was an honest mistake, don't take it out on him...~nod nod~

AND THE PIC IS WONDERFUL!

The damn pentagram is supposed to be upside down for satinism!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm very dissapointed in this picture. i like the people in it but not the pentegram. i'm a wich and i don't appreciate the sign of a wich being misunderstood.i like the pic otherwise, but you need to think about your art before you offend someone again.

Ahem...

First of all, I like your picture. It has an original idea and you've done a good job in turning the idea into a work of art. Might be even better with more shading, a darker background perhaps?

Secondly, this religious over-reacting is ridiculous.

To the wiccans, who should know better: even if the pentacle _were_ only a wiccan religious symbol, turning it the other way around wouldn't change a thing. Depending on the specific tradition, a great deal of wiccans consider the "upside-down" pentacle as a symbol of the masculine etc.., _not_ as something specifically evil.

To top all this, the pentacle does certainly not belong only to the wiccans. It is a symbol far older than the wiccanism, which is a relatively new religion anyhow. (And yes, I know wiccans consider themselves as the descendants of the ancient traditions, eg. Diana worshippers. This may very well be, but those traditions were severed at one point or another, and no-one can say for certain what their practices were.) It is also a symbol that is/has been used by many other groups, eg. Knights Templar and Freemasons.

That also satan worshippers and satanists use the symbol too is probably due to the early xian process of assimilating the predating traditions into the religion and changing the meaning of its' symbols and beliefs, thus creating the "evil", xian-based pentacle-symbol.

The point I'm making is this: It ain't only a wiccan symbol and it never will be! So let it just be. The artist can damn well use it as the artist sees fit, and for actually offering to _change_ it because you wiccans are offended, she is doing you a huge favor. I would never even consider meddling with my artwork for that kind of reason.

To the "you will burn in hell, and I wil laugh, laugh, laugh"-xians (and no, that is not an insult, that is "christian" written with a few less letters) who are a constant pebble in the great shoe of life: It would be great indeed, if you would learn to tell fact from fiction, reality from imagination, religious conviction from artistic creation. But I guess it's just too much to ask.

To top this rant off (sorry 'bout that, I just get miffed when ignorant people start harassing artists and making demands) I'm not wiccan, nor am I a xian (no surprises there, I think), just your basic infidel, atheistic scum.

If you ask me the picture looks like a different version of the Last Supper by Leonardo Da Vinci.

By the way this isn't the same guy who typed the first Anonymous I'm not a ignorant, mentally feeble, friggin idjit like him.

Idjit- a mindless being who possesses absolutely no mental capacity and is mentally inferior.

okay ya i'm a Wiccan and i am a little ticked of but it's okay just please don't do it again
