I dug up the mail exchange I had with Kasper about this and here's what 
he said:

They should stay. If everyone is against me I will respect that, but if 
anyone cares for my opinion and my legacy and touch on TYPO3 those 
images carry a part of that and should not be substituted.

Also, I'm not of the opinion that absense of religious references (of 
any kind and in general in society) is neutral since it favours atheism. 
I'm aware that this is a minority position and you may give that as an 
explanation if anyone asks.

Thanks for asking, that was clever.

So it's true that he is pretty much for keeping these images. I guess a 
case could be made, but it would have to be solid.

Cheers
