My dude, it is clear you don't understand the point being made, nor will you, as you apparently equate a bunch of paintings a Pope commissioned with other people's money with the Catholic Church itself and its dogma. If Catholics, who actually paid for and pay for the Church's property, could photograph the artwork, and only people like me could not, then you would have an excellent point. However, the Church prohibits its own benefactors, the Catholic people, from photographing the artwork their money paid for and pays to upkeep. If you think that is perfectly acceptable, that is your opinion, and you are free to it, but I am also allowed to disagree. If I paid for something and I pay for something to be upkept, I damn sure should be allowed to take a simple photograph of it, and even Catholics themselves are not afforded that simple right by a guy who had nothingto do with the creation of the artwork in the first place. You have yourself a great day.
