When did you find out drawing was Idolatry?

>“You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. You shall not bow down to them or serve them"

No fapping to idols /ic/

I fapped to Zipporah in Prince of Egypt.

lol read the description of the ark and its holding place. It mostly likely refers to images as idols. since many ancients believed the god could come into the image for worship.

It is by society that we need fantasy. To maintain the former requires that you provide the latter. If you'd remove fantasy society itself would crumble under the untameable desires of man.

The Bible has a lot of stuff advocating for anarcho-primitivism like this, and understanding where it comes from makes me disagree with it less. For instance, the original sin was shame and prudity. Sexuality wasn't controversial or taboo in Eden.
Still, we already live in a society. No use bitching about it now.

To keep it short, what is due to God is Latry. Giving to something what is due to God is idol-latry, whorshipping of a false god. An example in the Bible is Moses erecting a snake-pole so people can find him from a distance and he will heal them. Once they began worshipping the snake because of being healed, he destroyed the pole. Also he had a badass Staff with a carved snake so apparently making pictures is ok sometimes. We're going to hell anyway, so just draw, no excuse.

"graven image" means "statuary, ancestors and minor gods". You're not allowed to worship this thing. I had the same thought you did and looked it up.

Mosulmen are still fucked, though, which weirds me out because I'm certain art was one of their achievements during the golden age.

The first mention of art in the Bible is in Exodus 31. God is instructing Moses to create a tent for the ark of the covenant, and God mentions several artisans whom He has chosen to create “artistic designs” to beautify the tent. God says, “In the hearts of all who are skillful I have put skill.” We learn two things about God’s view of art in this passage: He likes it, and He is the source of it. He wants man to create beautiful things, and their skill in doing so is from Him.

I doubt this applies to drawing animu characters being Fd sideways by some black guy.

>>4085216
This i'm thinking.

I wonder if those of us who struggle with art are simple incapable of Sinning easily, think about it.
How many of us only started drawing because they made us do it in school but then we stopped until maybe High school or something- adulthood.
We stopped because it's wrong, our soul knows.

DO NOT WORRY, CHRISTIAN ARTISTS.

As long as your art isn't meant to be worshipped, you're good.
Stay SFW & you're good too.

I realize now i've focused on lewd stuff a bit too much in recent years.
That wonderlust for adventure and especially scifi space adventures has dwindled.

Do you think the contemporary meaning of "image" as a generic picture/gravure of any sort already existed in biblical times? Retard.
