I just wondered - what if ancient Romans saw modern day people wearing crosses around their necks? You think it'd be like us seeing people wearing a hangman's noose necklace (since an electric chair or gurney doesn't quite work the same)?

They thought Paul was crazy when he started preaching about a resurrected Jew who had died on a cross. :p That's why many Gentiles mocked him on Mars Hill.
