Well, since Italy is very VERY Catholic, and hopefully I'm not wrong saying this but their government is also, I don't think it's wrong for them to ban it. I just don't agree that this is tasteful. The painting represents one of Jesus' last moments, so yeah I can see why Catholics would think it's wrong. I'm not even religious and I think it's wrong. I'm sure if it was Martin Luther King, Jr. or some other big historic person, people would be having a fit.
That's a slippery slope to justify banning a painting. Other than it's obvious resemplance to Da Vinci's work, there is not catholic or christian about the picture.

Oh, just cover your virgin eyes or look away....this wouldn't be newsworthy if they didn't make such a fuss.
