I am recovering the claim that Jesus was not crucified in a cathedral between two candles, but on a cross between two thieves; on a town garbage heap; at a crossroad of politics so cosmopolitan that they had to write His title in Hebrew and Latin and in Greek... at the kind of place where cynics talk smut, and thieves curse and soldiers gamble.

The business of the Church is salvation of souls.+>She is a traitor to the Master who sent her if she is so beguiled by the beauties of taste and art as to forget that to "preach Christ... and Him crucified" is the only object for which she exists among the sons of men.
