OK, this is the absolute freakiest crucifix I have ever seen. I have been in so many different Catholic churches in my life, I can't count them all, and I have never, ever seen a crucifix like this one. Now perhaps that's because all the churches I've been in are in the United States and this particular one was in a church in England.
But holy cow! This looks like Jesus was starved for months, has a horribly misshapen ribcage and then was thrown on a burning pyre for about 20 minutes before being hauled off and nailed to the cross. I mean, dang!
If I hadn't seen the photo, I would have thought people were overreacting when they said children were scared of it, but after seeing the photo, I think it's going to give me nightmares.

Hmmmmm ... what to say, what to say? It's a nightly struggle, because I can't say everything, you know. But I will tell you about one little tragedy that befell me tonight: I burned my tongue on my soup. Ain't that sad?
