'I think your lie was wrong because you lied to make a point.' Your moral relativity really leaves you confused.

btw david f your insitence that I lied says more about you than me. You obviously ignored the article where I quote

'In sentencing Mr Lin, the judge accepted that some of the images had been downloaded for reference in Mr Lin's graphic design work. '

what part don't u understand. I suspect you are being deliberatley ignorant.

But, of course, it's the meaning behind the imagery that's all important - don't you agree?
Poirot,
that is a very good painting, one I have no reservation whatsoever calling Art. I'm having difficulty though in agreeing with your above comment. Yes meaning is important but no less important than imagery. Without recognisable imagery no meaning means anything.
Much modern imagery is pointless to the point of not meaning anything.

Thank you, Poirot… I've already admitted I'm not an art expert – even of 'nudey man' ones – but from my perspective and that of the picture's I can just about see all the way up the apse.

Dear runner,

There is still nothing in the story that has the defendent claiming that child porn was art. Regardless of how you try to wiggle out of it that is what you claimed. I am not confused by the fact you lied. The one whose morals are in question is yours. You lied, and there wwas no justification for it.

Dear Poirot,

Loved the sketch.

Reminds me of the old adage:

To acquire knowledge one must study
but to acquire wisdom, one must observe.
