Blasphemous 'Jesus clock'

INNSBRUCK, Austria, March 20, 2019 (LifeSiteNews) — Bishop Hermann Glettler of Austria gave permission for an artist to install a salvaged corpus from a crucifix that serves as a clock within the sanctuary of the historic Spitalskirche in downtown Innsbruck.

From the hands of artist Manfred Erjautz, 53, and dubbed “Your Jesus,” the upside-down wooden corpus projects from a mechanism on a shaft that is embedded in the torso.

There is no clock face in the installation on the wall of the historic baroque Spitalskirche that continues throughout Lent.
