Saint Andrew————
He was sentenced to death by crucifixion by the Romans in Greece, but asked to be crucified on a diagonal cross as he felt he wasn’t worthy to die on the same shape of cross as Jesus. This diagonal cross is now used on the Scottish flag.
Legend suggests that parts of his remains were later transported to the ”ends of the earth”. That place was Scotland. More specifically a town on the north east coast called Kilrymont, now St Andrews.
Also, the famous St.Andrews Golf Course uses an X shape symbol to be like the crucifixion X where St.Andrew was tortured to death.

Truthfully, I am tired of seeing naked ugly people.
To some it might be tempting.
Not to me. UGH.
“… the woman was caught on camera by appalled locals posing for pictures with just a red strip of material covering her front…”
Why were appalled locals posing for pictures.
I guess she photobombed them.
“..their equipment didn’t appear to be professional.”
We’re talking about women tourists, right?
Appalling; but, thankfully, they weren’t Americans.
..... with just a red strip of material covering her front, ....

Looked more like enough fabric to cover a school bus.
Disrespectful skank. I would have bitch-slapped her down every one of those steps.
Whether you like the Catholic church or not is irrelevant. For the parishioners, that is God’s house.
When my husband and I went to the Vatican and St. Peter’s Basilica, I wore a modest dress that covered my knees and shoulders.
Hope skank girl is arrested for indecent exposure.
