I really can't see why a crucifix would be scary even if they are mostly wall hangers. The fact that some people have crucifixes hanging on their walls doesn't mean they aren't good Christians. It would be frightening if it DID mean that. That would be scary .........jbarter wrote:................

It is what the woman is warding off with the cross that is scary. The cross is protecting her from evil. The cross is not scary. It is the movie scene that is scary.
"The fact that some people have crucifixes hanging doesn't mean they aren't good Christians."? I have never heard an assertion to the contrary.talasigna wrote:The fact that some people have crucifixes hanging on their walls doesn't mean they aren't good Christians.

I plead innocent to any sort of cleverness---I know there are many who will have no trouble believing this 
. I was merely seeking the largest garlic I could find.
"John started getting ready to plant some garlic, they have some giant ones, a couple were two pounds each! They are really big and John says that they are called 'Elephant Garlic' and are really a kind of leek, but look and taste like a mild garlic. John started with just a small amount and each year takes the largest that grew the year before and plants those, that way he will eventually have the largest elephant garlic around."
