...........San Damiano Cross........
Some crucifix images are tortuous, but this one is certainly not. From an artistic point of view it's highly stylized, almost without wounds.
Odd that, of all things, Facebook would take offense at this.

Franciscan University posted a series of ads on Facebook Friday to promote some of its online theology programs, but it says one of them was rejected because it included the Crucifixion of Christ on the San Damiano Cross.

We need double scientific notation to adequatly describe the sleaze of Faceblort.
Facebook is under fire for instigating anti-Semitism after refusing to remove a picture of human remains on a shovel captioned 'How to pick up Jewish chicks'. The social media giant claimed the image did not breach its standards, but the Facebook community erupted in anger over its handling of posts reported as offensive. It comes just days after Facebook decided not to censor a symbolic Vietnam War image of a naked girl escaping a napalm bombing.
Indeed the horrific murder of Jesus must not be ignored. BUT He is Risen now. He completed once for all the sacrifice of Himself. His Word tells us He is now in Heaven interceding for us THERE. He is no longer being sacrificed.
i wonder if Facebook has ever allowed pictures of the people in the countries who actually allow themselves to be hung on crosses?
