Knock knock. Who's there? It's Jesus! Kiel Mead recently debuted some new wares including "The Grand Entrance", shown above. Inspired by a Catholic upbringing and memories of a crucifix greeting him upon each home arrival, Mead decided to cram some function into the religious tchochke with this two-for-one spiritual reminder/door knocker.

Problem is, ours was in the guest room, and I didn't really think about it until after I brought a girlfriend home who slept there. She was Jewish, and related how she found it creepy and difficult.
It's kind of a militant martyrdom where you force your guests to view a golden corpse of someone they (if they're Jewish) have been accused of being responsible for killing, and even have had their people have one or two problems over the millenia as a result. It can, in those instances be a disturbing thing to throw at guests.
Want an ironic use without offending the guests? How about a set of crucifix-form personal care products: brush your teeth with the crucifix, clip your nails with the crucifix, or a nice corn-buffer.
