The crucifix is more a Catholic thing than any other religion. I recall NEVER seeing a crucifix in any Protestant church I went to. Having grown up going to Protestant churches, whether Presbyterian, Baptist, or Congregational, there were only ever crosses..no Mary, no Jesus on a stick, no holy water. Just good old fashioned God, his boy, and the spook. Now that I'm married and could care less about religion, i let my wife do the choosing. She chooses the church of the holy pedophile down the road, and that poor bastard hangs from the cross, bleeding, looking sad, but it's all okay, because the priests are touching the kids, stealing the offering and Mary looks innocently on. Gruesome indeed.
