As adults living in a western society we are pretty accustomed to the image, but if you step back and look at it objectively, it's unnecessarily violent and graphic. I would think Jesus standing there preaching would be more of an apt image of the man, particularly if I were Jesus. His message was more important than the fact that he was nailed to a cross, was it not?

What planet do you live on? We see far more violent images everyday on the news, tv, movies etc. And most of that is just gratuitous. I thinking this image is pretty tame in comparison. Unneccessarily violent? You mean like cutting a chicken's head off in a cafeteria?
