The whole question then in life is whether X directs us to the cross.

I suppose we have to differentiate now between those & the “secular” nuns you see all the time…

I can’t believe the remarks after the youtube about religious art being boring.

Obviously these people have never written or read an icon before — a story in art where everything from color, shape, placement, means something special.

A good example is Our Lady of Guadalupe. The black belt means she is pregnant. The blue green mantle was a color the Aztecs had. She is standing in front of the sun which the Aztecs worshipped. Scientists have discovered that the eyes have a reverse photo of the bishop as St. Juan Diego shows the Bishop the roses he picked and the icon appears on his cactus-fiber tilma.
