Fair enough. I still don’t think from such a perspective that immersing the crucifix in urine is any more degrading or disrespectful than mass producing it out of cheap molded plastic in the first place. I still see this as largely equivalent to Sinad O’Connor tearing up the Pope’s photograph, artists generating reactions through symbols / objects representing the faiths they were raised in. Neither rejected Christianity, but both have expressed problems with the institution of the RCC.
Interestingly, Sinad is now a priest.
