No matter how many presidents this country has, or how many troops we send all over this planet, it will never be perfect it probably won't ever come close to being the way that Jesus and God were trying to make either. Even though we don't know how they imagined the world today I'm sure they saw it way differently than it is. Which I think is the point that Andy Warhol was trying to make when he created the art piece know as " The Last Supper".
Andy's art piece shows Jesus and his disciples at the Last Supper and surrounding the picture is a Dove logo, a GE Health care logo, and a sign that says 59¢. The GE Healthcare logo and Dove logo symbolize the good things that this world contains like homeless shelters and charity organizations, it also symbolizes the things that Jesus did to cure the ill. The 59¢ symbolizes how much this planet is worth, because all of Mother Nature's creatures are slowly vanishing and the world has come to a point in life where we have to climb a mountain to feel like we have accomplished something when the truth is that we have accomplished nothing . Every single day people go out to work polluting the air, chopping down trees, and murdering animals and humans. God's creations are being taken over by selfish humans that think they need cell phones, computers and money.
So in the end Andy Warhol is trying to open our eyes and show us that technology and pollution are ruling our world and that we are too weak to resist the temptations as small as chopping down trees and killing innocent creatures. Andy really was trying to prove that love makes the world go round , not money or technology.
