The other point is, as was discussed for example by David Tombs, that hiding the sexual abuse first enables the sexual abuse in the Catholic Church. If sexual abuse of Christ would be known in general, the victims of say rapes (eg mostly females, but also people in the Catholic Church) would place them in the place of Jesus and the rapists in the place of the Romans. It would make sexual abuse an even more devilish crime as the secular world is able to argue. So therefor a nude christ (excluding minors from its view) is for me even mandatory. Also the adult christ should know that Christ was most probably sexually abused.Exactly right!
When I would have to play (probably not a nice view) Jesus or would have to make a movie/theater (probably better) I would show the sexual abuse, the nudity and the cornu for sure. Naturally it might not been explicit (me would not have problems with that, but there are things one can hide if the viewers wish) but I think people have to know that. It is a little disgusting wearing crosses and spent hours in the church not understanding the horrible background and its meaning. Just imagine some person hanging there, clothed, untouched and dying of boredom.
