Topic: Interesting theological question...

If the method of nailing someone to a cross in crucifixion was instead nailing someone to a prosititute, would the sign for Christians change from a cross to a prostitute? I realize how out in left field this question is, and I hope to not offend anyone with it, but it still poses an interesting point. Would people be wearing the sign of a prostitute on a necklace around their neck instead of a cross?

Again, no offense to anyone!

Geez, I hope not!!!!

Should've done something, but I've done it enough
By the way your hands were shaking
Rather waste some time with you

...Why would you nail someone to a prostitute anyway?

Nah, the sign would have been a stylized "stone rolled away from the tomb" image. Or something else more "holy".
I believe in the existance of magic, not because I have seen proof of its existance, but because I refuse to live in a world where it does not exist.

Odds are the church would phase the whole "prostitute" thing from history and replace it with something a little less offensive.
I don't know how to be sexy. If I catch a girl looking at me and our eyes lock, I panic and open mine wider. Then I lick my lips and rub my genitals. And mouth the words "You're dead."

There is nothing interesting and/or witty about this thread.
You smell that? Do you smell that? ...Napalm, son. Nothing else in the world smells like that. I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed for twelve hours. When it was all over I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' dink body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like... victory.

Yes, they would wear a prostitute and consider it a holy symbol. It would be a symbol for something, I'm sure, but can't for the life of me think of it now. Prostitution NOWADAYS would be completely different, though, it would be a respectable, normal career, instead of taboo.

Instead, think of it more like if he were killed by a gun, would the symbol be a gun?

So would women ascend to higher status perhaps much faster than they did? New question!

I dunno, maybe that's what was done with the cross thing. We weren't there, after all. We don't even know this guy existed.

Oh, that already happened.

Really, though, the Catholic Church is controlled by Aliens who are just using this whole religion thing as a cover up so they can brain wash us all.

You obviously don't want enough X-Files, yeesh.
