“That I perceive such “art” – e.g. Madonna or Santa on the Cross posted earlier on the thread - as an insult to the body and blood of Christ is clearly a Christian sentiment. If I didn’t love Christ or if I didn’t consider the Cross sacred, I wouldn’t care.”

I said art, not “art”. The fact that you resort to Madonna and effigy of Santa on a cross and put that on the same level as real art speaks volumes about your thinking. You’re just proving my point.

My disapproval of anything or anyone being draped on the Cross as if to say it or he is equal to Christ is a matter of spiritual discernment not art appreciation.

For the LORD thy God [is] a consuming fire, [even] a jealous God. - Deut 4:24

To God be the glory, not man, never man!
