From the BBC News:
Church removes 'scary crucifix'.
A large sculpture of Christ on the cross has been removed from outside a church in West Sussex after its vicar said it was "scaring young children".
The Reverend Ewen Souter said the 10ft crucifix was "a horrifying depiction of pain and suffering" which was also "putting people off".
The sculpture, located at the side of St John's Church in Broadbridge Heath, has now been given to Horsham Museum.
It will be replaced with a new stainless steel cross.
Stainless steel crosses are also pretty scary.
