1. If we look back into the history we can see that religion was always in favour of arts, brought them up, and promoted them. The manners of arts that have been promoted by a special religion also helps to explain what a religion thought of itself.
2. Arts helped to spread religious thoughts and made them popular even in societies that hardly had the knowlegde of reading and writing.
3. Later on arts turned once and a while against religion. And this goes on. One can see it when it comes to discuss on arts in public aeras. Some feel that a specific work of art has an access to blasphemy.
4. But still, there seems to be one common issue between arts and religion: the struggle for humanity. Maybe this is the very (last) consensus between them in an open society.
