“...worshipping the cross...”

Wearing a reminder of what Jesus went through is not an act of worship. It is a reminder of Jesus’ sacrifice. This does not constitute worship. it helps a person stay recollected because there are many distractions in modern life.

Yes. Comedians are really not known for their theological study or knowledge.

I know exactly what you are saying. Perhaps 'worship' was the wrong word.

What I was referring to was use of the cross, as if the symbol itself had some kind of 'power', such as in exorcisms.
