The only cross I noted seemed to be built into a window and had 4 panes of glass in each quandrant. Utilitarian if nothing else. Also, there was a cross beam for the ceiling running right into the top of the cross and it had a bunch of spot lights on it. I guess they could have used it to illuminate the godboy when he was nailed up? I did notice all sorts of pagan xmas decorations like trees and wreaths but no nativity scene. I guess the Lutherans took jesus out of xmas? Good thinking.
Once when the soprano did a little ornamentato on the word "heathen" I thought she was talking to me. Another time when she was singing about the "king cumeth unto thee" I did think of some of the pervs around here.
Finally, when the chorus opened up with "all we like sheep...." I couldn't help but think of G-C and Dripshit and Stevie and Little Rik and the rest of our resident bleaters.
A good performance though.
Any signs of incipient total spontaneous human combustion while you were there ??
If not, I think we have a pretty good indication God either isn't, or is a Minimalist Himself.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
