Well I really liked
this reading. I thought the way it was written, like how you could really get a
feel for the writer’s personality, was neat. I also think his personality is
pretty funny. I was trying to figure out what his job was and honestly I didn’t
think the reading was all that interesting until I found out the picture of
Jesus was made out of a whole bunch of nipples. I didn’t even read the title of
this reading “NippleJesus” and I’m glad I didn’t because then the reading
became a total surprise to me I didn’t see that coming. When Dave, the security
guard, tries to stop the “vicar” from getting closer to the picture and asks
him to stay where he is, where it's beautiful, that part made me think. All these
people coming in and seeing Christ but then going closer to see the nipples and
being disgusted are so pessimistic. Instead of trying to see the beauty
in something people would rather see the ugly in them. If you really wanna
see the bad/ugly in things my god you’re going to see it. Its not always pretty
out there and if I was in the situation that “vicar” was in I would have stayed
just where I was…. And see the beauty in it.
What I didn’t like
about the reading I also liked. I was with Dave at the end I was mad at Martha
and wanted her to having a meaningful reason behind why she made Jesus out of
nipples. But at the same time I thought it was funny. How she didn’t even care
all that much about the picture. She even says if someone were not to smash it
she would have been stuck with a “NippleJesus”. And that she did it to get a
reaction out of people. And in her mind that is what artist do. Over all I
liked this article I even emailed it to my boyfriend to read with me. We
laughed at all the different words he used like “nutter” and how much he
cussed. You get an A+ for giving us a good reading!
