I bet I would receive death threats if I tried to organize public flag burning in the US, for some reason that seems to set many americans off more than religious symbols. I don't know if Maplethorpe received death threats for piss christ, but I wouldn't be surprised. I agree that distorying anyone's symbols is a silly gesture.
