Artist's Comments

The work was inspired by Dali’s Temptation (Temptation of St. Anthony)

The black creature represents the mausoleum with the cross, and aspects of demons and devils from christianity’s symbolism. It’s the ugly face of christianity that casts a shadow in the shape of a cross, on the naked man which represents the vision of the perfect christian follower, a man who belives in the myths of one religion without questioning them and bowing to the image of this religion, when actualy it has a pretty ugly shape. A god that kills innocents, creates wars, is arogant and has ugly human caracteristics thruout the bible, ready to send people who dont bow to him in eternal fire, represented on this earth by corupted priests that have no right to mediate the relation between humans and spirituality.

The white creature represented by the Arch of Triumph is the symbol of the victory of this religion over the large masses, who actually don’t really know what they are worshiping. The creatures share a visual contact like two hidious lovers.

Interesting depiction, but please don't throw all Christians into the same bucket. Many Christians, such as myself, do question the reality of Jesus Christ and the Bible before believing, and don't believe that priests are of any higher spiritual power than anyone else. God is just, and there are many things throughout the Bible that we will not understand about Him.

superbly creative ! :clap:

I'm am not. I know Jesus existed and even had debates on this topic, where i was defending the existence of Christ against proponents of the Jesus copycat myth. However, I am against the Christian Church, and what people normaly understand as christianity. Most of today's christian practises are pagan or invented for profit! A true christian learns from the wisdom of the great teacher Jesus, and doubts about the god in the old testament who does crap like this, which brings in question the statemant that the bible was not perverted thruout the ages! Jesus was against a lot of things that "God" inflicts on humans in the old testament, which again is wierd. I could go on about this in a milion pages, in fact i probably did, but deviantart is not the place!

Thanks for the appreciation of my work:) photoshop is my free-time hobby
