Before you tell me that this should be in the "AI Artistry & Creation" section, I did initially post this only to that AI section. The owner of the AI section sent me a PM stating "Your topic AI Crucifixion was deleted. Please do not post christian imagery in this section." REALLY??? I checked the "Please read" post in the AI section, and it showed nothing about religious imagery. I wonder if the owner of that section is anti-Christian?

So, re-posting it here...we regularly see pictures here of churches and other religious topics. The images shown were created using Bing Creator AI using the text: "Crucifixion on Calvary, with 2 additional crosses for thieves, sky background, saying INRI on top of Jesus' cross, with Mary, Martha, St. John, Roman Soldiers." There were several images created, and here are the best of the lot. Note that in the last 2 shown, it put the INRI (which translated is: Jesus of Nazareth King of the Jews) onto to thieves crosses, so I blurred those out in post.

That does seem to be an unreasonable restriction; there's nothing anti-religious about the pictures that I can see, but maybe the AI section admin guy might just want to avoid prickly commentary by simply not having such imagery displayed at all. Also, I'd always thought that the letters INRI stood for "Ipsit Nazarenus Rex Iudeorum" (Here is the Nazarene King of the Jews). I took 2 years of Latin in high school, but that was 59 years ago so my spelling & grammar could be totally off.

The INRI is close to what you have shown...only the first word is not Ipsit, but Iesus...ie..."Jesus of Nazareth King of the Jews." Somewhere in the distant past, along the lines of languages, what we know today as the "J" used to be "I" ... thus, you have the last word correct "Iudeorum" (of the Jews).

I know, but we've been through this before. Rongnongno made it pretty clear, but apparently never spelled it out in the rules. He should.

As recently as yesterday, the owner changed the "Please read" document (his rules) to include his disallowing of religious content.

This is the OP. Rather strange that I posted a Nativity Scene to the "AI Artistry & Creation" section about 7 weeks ago, and the owner of that AI section had no problem with that one...but he does have a problem with a Crucifixion scene.

See: https://www.uglyhedgehog.com/t-799059-1.html

Thank you, I did not see it.

I will try to have it transferred to the christian room, if not, either the gallery or deleted.

Perhaps the concern was not getting sidetracked into religious discussions and getting sidetracked seems to be a common occurence on this forum. Maybe the idea is that if there less back and forths about religion, politics and other social commentary, there would be a more concentrated discussion about the actual process of AI and even its implications. This should be stated clearly in the rules, but of course there are still those damnable "shades of gray"
