this is a double standard. She's upset about a depiction of Jesus because she feels strongly about her faith in him, and probably feels that it is blasphemous or something. Muslims obviously have a very strong objection with any pictorial representation for a reason that non-muslims just don't understand. Why can't we just respect that?
I will say that, as a piece of art, her being upset is bullshit. If she can't handle it too fucking bad. It's not like this was some billboard or slanderous tasteless campaign for political or social gain. It was an artist who obviously had a very important idea or message to get across about society, and perhaps this is exactly what he expected, and wanted, to prove his prove of a double standard, so perhaps the joke is on this woman? I hope so. If that's the case, the artist is a genius.
