medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Saint Theodore popped into my head. When I looked him up at NewAdvent, I
discovered that a crown of thorns is one of his emblems.

The "soldierly" appearance and the sword reminded me of the statue of Saint
Theodore at one of the great cathedrals of France, perhaps Chartres,
Strasbourg... If I may inject a personal note, he's quite a hunk!
