Having read this and other forum comments on this movie and the 2nd Commandment, I'd like to ask if such symbols as the dove, in Scripture representing the Holy Spirit, are also to be considered blasphemous?
Yes, if the picture of the dove has an inscription which says it is to be taken as the Holy Spirit. There is nothing inherently blasphemous, evil or wrong with painting a dove, a creature created by God. But if one says that the picture of the dove IS the Holy Spirit, is said to REPRESENT the Holy Spirit, or SYMBOLIZES the Holy Spirit, then it becomes an idol and as such is in violation of the Second Commandment. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
