The image, which featured two young girls one of whom was sitting down with her legs wide apart, was taken by the renowned photographer Nan Goldin.
The shot, from the artist's Thanksgiving series, was to be exhibited at the Baltic Modern Art gallery, Tyneside, this week along with some of her other work. But the day before it was due to be viewed by the public, police came and removed the image over fears that it was breaking the law.
Goldin, 54, is well known for her shots of young, semi-clothed girls.
In 2001, one of her photos featuring a very young naked girl looking up between the open legs of a semi-clothed older child had been criticised for making money from exploiting children.
Goldin was born in Washington DC, ran away from home and was fostered by several families during her childhood. She moved to New York after graduating from art school where she became known for her pictures of alcoholics, drug addicts and Aids sufferers.
She was admitted to rehab in the 1990s and much of her work since has reflected her own experiences.
Sir Elton John has long been an admirer of her work and is also a close friend. He was not available for comment and a spokesman referred inquiries to the Baltic.
Question: What kind of person desires to gaze at a naked young, prepubescent girl sitting with her legs spread apart?
Answer: A pervert.
It is interesting that many homosexual-tolerant groups are currently promoting the lowering of the age of consent, and even the abolition of the laws against child-porn, and sex with children. (For further details, see this BBC news report.)
This is most certainly not normal, and anyone who even suggests otherwise clearly has a reprobate mind.
The Bible says:
“And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness..., haters of God..., inventors of evil things...: Without understanding..., without natural affection..., Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death.”
(Romans chapter 1, verses 28 – 32)
