Related to that is making BIG CROSSES, like the one in Groom, Texas: [![](https://i0.wp.com/www.route66news.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Big-Cross-Groom-TX-min.jpg?w=640&ssl=1) ](https://i0.wp.com/www.route66news.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Big-Cross-Groom-TX-min.jpg?w=640&ssl=1) 190 feet tall. It’s like God won’t remember they exist unless they make a big show. Since this is on Rte 66, I see a lot of comments how “inspiring” it is to see it. If you think God needs this to know you are faithful, you obviously don’t understand your own religion. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/new-stupid-republican-idea-of-the-day-part-4/1014678)._
