Vatican Rules Jesus to Stay Nailed to Cross

A recent cleaning project focused on Michelangelo's last work, The Crucifiction of St. Peter has started a war between art and history. In the painting (which sits in the private papal quarters hence one is unlikely to stumble on it during a vatican tour), Michelangelo depicted Christ as nude and voluntarily offering himself to the cross. Years later the Vatican ordered an artist to cover his unmentionables with a cloth and place nails which would hold him to the cross.

According to the Independent, a committe headed up by Pope Benedict himself ruled that the nails and cloth should stay. Way to paint history, B16!
