Inspiration and practical advice for aspiring realist artists
Richard I am curious as to your cmoemnt. Do you believe David is implying that to love people means we forfeit the right to protect our loved ones? Your scenario is totally outside the scope of the intent of the drawing in my opinion. Religion has caused enormous amounts of abuse and pain merely for the reason others believe differently. Often the oppressors believe they are granted some sort of license to hate and attack entire groups of people. How does this in any way translate to your scenario? I believe the call to love is the greatest commandment and the law of love the only law left for the Christian. I also believe that requires me to do what I can to protect my wife and family from harm. Rest assured, if you decide to break into my home with the intent to kill me or rape my wife or torture my children in front of me, I will kill you.
