"By recognizing technical excellence as an aspect of an art work, we are often able to say that while we do not agree with such and such and artist's world view, he is nonetheless a great artist.

"We are not being true to the artist as a man if we consider his art work junk simply because we differ with his outlook on life. Christian schools, Christian parents, and Christian pastors often have turned off young people at just this point. Because the schools, the pastors, and the parents did not make a distinction between technical excellence and content, the whole of much great art has been rejected with scorn and ridicule. Instead, if the artist's technical excellence is high, he is to be praised for this, even if we differ with his world view. Man must be treated fairly as man.”

 Francis Schaeffer, Art and the Bible
