Falling crucifix kills woman in village
September 22, 2004
ROME, Sept 22 (Reuters) - A 67-year-old woman was killed when a three-metre tall metal crucifix fell on her head in a small southern Italian town on Wednesday, police said.
The cross, which has been in the main square on Sant'Onofrio for decades, fell on Maddalena Camillo while workers were setting up lights for an annual religious festival.
Italy, home to the Vatican City, is a predominantly Roman Catholic country where crucifixes and religious icons and effigies are a common sight in most towns and villages.
Now that's irony...

Worshipping dead gods can be hazardous to your health. Once again, the perfect Xtian god didn't manage to save one of his sheep. - That's how a friend put it.

So tell me: What is it people pray for, if it's not a better life and help ("salvation") of some kind? And why do people refer to Jesus/ God as their "saviour"?Bambi said:

Oh, don't take it to your heart Maren, it's the usual ultra-conservative prod bashing I think it's pretty ironic, though we have to admit people usually died on the cross.
Well, if Mehdi was killed by a falling crucifix in some backward part of the world, let's say, in a little Transylvanian village, that'd be funny.

Can't the whole Jesus / God / Saviour-bit be an expression of peoples' conscience though?!
Whatever floats your boat, I say... as long someone is happy and don't hurt others it's fine by me...
Looking down on others (like calling them "sheep" and all of that) just because they believe in Jesus or similar is just... pretty ridiculous (imo, of course).
No harm intended.
Im confused as to why shes confused.Loona said:Duncan, my mother just saw that your avatar is a pic of Jesus and is totally... hum... confused?
BTW, how old is she?
The chances are, Jesus was alright like. Thats why people followed him cos he was a good lad and way smarter than your average Abraham. And this was all without Metal Hammer telling them to follow him, proper hardcore style like.snow2fall said:
