I'm not sure I take your meaning here, Grady. Are you saying that what has been taken
as a crucifix was not one, but instead a mounting fixture that has been
misinterpreted? And if this is not what you're saying, what then do you think can
legitimately be inferred about the religious status/affiliation of the householder
from the presence of the crucifix within this person's house?

Yours,

Jeffrey

Grady is right. It never was a crrucifix! It is a wall mounting fixture for some kind of cabinet.
