It  is interesting, though, that the Cross (however represented)  so

Don't you think, though, that since each Eucharist makes present
the one and only Sacrifice at Calvary, and this is our worship focus,
that a crucifix is overwhelmingly the ideal symbol for what's  happening?

Yes, we ARE there at the crucifixion every time we break the bread
and share the wine.
