I think it's tacky and distasteful. It's made of wood, and there IS a corpus on it, along with some other things, like a deer, some other animals and "angels" on the sides, although some say they look like demons. It's really modern-looking and kind of creepy. This is the cross in my college's chapel, and they even made a curtain to go over it because so many people hate the way it looks, or they get "offended" because there's a cross in our "nondenominational" chapel.

Thanks Angela. You've got some good stuff! The pictures of Our Lady were my fave, but I also liked the pics of Micah. :hehehe:

here's Micah in a few years:

It's hard to say from far away, but it looks pretty good from what I can see.

The deer may be a legitimate accessory. I have a 1962 missal with a picture of a deer drinking the overflowing blood coming down from the cross to a chalice.

i have the same missal as you

The deer symbolism is Biblical, believe it or not. Comes from Psalm 41(42) (I think) - "As the deer yearns / for running streams / so my soul is yearning / for You, my God."

yea, I go to the same College as photosynthesis. so, I have seen the cross, and it's not a normal cross: with 2 deer at the bottom of it and some other things. I think it's a wrong depiction of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, and too modern.

It's rather ugly. Did you say it was in a non-denominational chapel (or rather an inter-denominational chapel)? Can't expect too much from those....
