Hi

This is infantilizing. It’s an offense against all good taste. And look how it fits—or doesn’t—in the cathedral’s larger visual context.

For years, I’ve largely refrained from commenting on Catholic Church affairs. The Church’s culture wars are a tragedy. I adore the Holy Father and don’t criticize the prelacy.

But folks, this is the Jubilee Cross installed at St Andrew’s Cathedral in Glasgow.

Come on. COME ON.

Tonight, on a foggy Chicago winter's night -- on the way home from the art museum, natch -- I took the perfect photo of the city.
