It's not even only about Adam - it's about God. The complex symbolism of Michelangelo's masterpiece, which is one of the basic texts of our culture - and, by the way, Michelangelo was homosexual and knew all he wanted to know about it - is reduced to brute anal nonsense, and that, mind you, between Creator and creature. This is ghastly on so many levels - aesthetic, philosophical, emotional, affective, rational - that I cannot honestly bring myself to say more about it than I absolutely have to.
