I'm uncomfortable with the whole crucifix thing as well because...well, it seems an awful gruesome and horrible moment to celebrate. I would think his resurrection would be the thing to celebrate, yes? I mean everyone dies, nothing special about that.
I also--and I'd never admit this in real life because it's just too stupid--get a bit uncomfortable because there really seems to be a lot of eroticism trapped in those giant Jesus crucifixes. That is to say, Jesus is always well defined, usually pretty buff and that sash is just one stiff breeze from flying open and, to be honest, that makes me a bit uncomfortable because...well, I shouldn't be thinking of Jesus' dork in church and yet it always seems the logical ending to that particular trail of thought.
