[QUOTE="Dougmeister, post: 3613771, member: 56842"]My "thoughts" are that the author of that article is not very bright. I wish I could get the few minutes of my life back from reading *his* thoughts. Artists *commonly* depict their subjects through the lens of their culture. Unless I'm mistaken, he is basically saying that Pilate was a Medieval figure simply due to the way he was shown in various pieces of art. People will go to extreme lengths to attempt to disprove the Bible. Gustave Flaubert, far from a moral person, did write some truth when he penned: "You can calculate the worth of a man by the number of his enemies, and the importance of a work of art by the amount that it is attacked."[/QUOTE]
