There certainly is a racial/ethnic slant to it though, Victoria's secret wouldnt use the image of Jesus in such a crass way, but as they are only upsetting Buddhists they dont really care... I mean, I guess there are less Buddhist's in the market for sexy lingere,,, the morality of it is inconquential to a capitalist enterprise, but they wouldnt want to alienate a big part of their target market.
