Genesis 1:27: So God created man in his [[own]] image in the image of God created he him: male and female created he them. Anyone who denies the beauty of the human body is denying God himself, and will have to answer to God for it.

I couldn't agree more with the last comment. The human body is only obscene if it is displayed in an obscene way, it is not obscene per se.
On the subject of the Cerne Abbas Giant there is speculation that it was originally some sort of pagan fertility symbol. There are instances of couples who have tried to start families visiting the site at night in order to conceive on the Giant in the belief that the Giant helps them to conceive. I personally don't believe that the Giant has any effect but that by believing in it the self-belief and confidence aids the fertility process. The Giant therefore is in effect a very pro-family icon and I don't see anything inconsistent with it being show on this site.
