Australian school apologises suggestive saint statue

It seems like there's been a bit of a controversy in an Australian school!

According to reports, a Catholic school in Melbourne, Australia, has apologized for a statue of Saint Mary that some students and parents found suggestive. The statue, which depicts Saint Mary with a rather... revealing... pose, was installed in the school's chapel.

The school's principal, Michael McGarry, has since apologized for any offense caused and has promised to remove the statue. In a statement, McGarry said: "We understand that the statue may have caused some concern and we apologize if it has caused any offense. We will be removing the statue and replacing it with a more appropriate representation of Saint Mary."

It's not uncommon for religious institutions to face criticism for their art and decor, especially when it comes to depictions of the human form. However, it's interesting to see how this controversy has unfolded in an Australian school.

Do you think the school made the right decision in apologizing and removing the statue? Or do you think it's just a harmless piece of art?
