        I could never get past the idea of the cross. Like, imagine if the foundational figure of your religion spent their whole life working to improve the world then died by wood chipper. Now, to honor them, you wear a stylized wood chipper everywhere.

          Well, they chose the symbol of the cross possibly because it embodies the sacrifice of jesus to absolb humanity of its sins and it's simple iconography to make.

              Can't tell if the artist is just bad at proportions for babies, or if they were doing that thing where baby Jesus is all grown up.

                    Part of the mythology of Jesus is that he got better. So, the cross became a symbol of his sacrifice and suffering for the followers of his religion. It's a constant reminder of "look what you made Jehovah do by being an evil sinner." It is also a concise icon which can be used to identify the members of the religion. And, it's been in use for a long time now and is well recognized as a Christian religious symbol, with the original usage of crosses as torture and execution devices being mostly ignored. Perhaps back 1500 to 2000 years ago, such confusion may have made sense. These days, it's so far removed from that context that such confusion is usually a matter of being willfully obtuse.

                        My favorites are the ones where:

                        baby

                        Jesus

                        is ripped.
