    Doubly appalling when you consider that the crucifix symbolizes the government murder of Jesus on the cross.

      Yes absolutely, IDK for sure but maybe it was that, that made it immediately SCREAM double standard to me?

        Maybe she’s thinking the crucifix is celebrating execution in general rather than the wrongness of Jesus’ execution. She’s just getting the wrong message from it.
