provided a pseudo-scientific foundation for the
world-wide culture of death.

THE CANDY CANE According to legend, the candy cane was first created back in the 18th century. At that time, in certain areas of Europe,
there was said to be a ban on public displays of Christianity. Christians were oppressed and no Bibles or crosses could be
owned at the time. One man found this oppression distressing and wished he could share the love of Jesus and the joy of
Christmas with the rest of the world. When Christmas came around, children didn’t get to see nativity scenes or enjoy
learning about the truth of Christmas.
As a candy maker, this man prayed to find a way that he could offer local children a Christmas gift that would allow
him to communicate the real story of Christmas. His prayer led to an idea, the Candy Cane. He chose to make the candy
cane in the shape of a shepherd’s staff. After all, Jesus is the shepherd to his followers and the Bible notes that the “sheep”
would hear His voice and follow him. Not only was the candy cane in the shape of a staff, but when held upside down, it
formed a “J,” which stood for Jesus.
The candy maker chose hard candy for the candy cane, which was done to remind children that Jesus was our “rock,”
dependable and strong. Wide red stripes were added to the candy cane, representative of the crucifixion and the blood Je-
sus shed for our sins. Through his blood, we are given salvation and life. There are also white stripes on the candy cane,
which represents the holiness, and purity of Jesus, who was sinless.
Peppermint was the flavor that the candy maker chose for the candy cane. Peppermint was very similar to hyssop,
which was used for sacrifice and purification in the Old Testament, reminding us of the sacrifice that Jesus made for us. It
also reminds us of the spices brought by the Wise Men when they came to visit Jesus.
Of course, when the candy cane is eaten, it is often broken, which the candy maker meant as a reminder that when Je-
sus was crucified, His body was broken. The candy cane was also made to be given as a gift, representing the love of Je-
sus when He gave us the gift of salvation.
The ANNUNCIATION by EL GRECO The Annunciation by El Greco is an oil painting created by him. Housed in the famed Museo del Prado in Madrid,
the original measures just over 10 ft. X 5 ½ feet. In the painting, Mary is greeted by an angel who shares news that
she is to conceive the Son of God. The scene represents the moment Mary
accepts the news, symbolized by the angel’s stance with his hands crossed
as if venerating Jesus’s mother. A ray of light joins the earthly and celestial
worlds as a dove descends to represent the Holy Spirit.
On steps at the bottom of the paint- ing are a sewing basket and rose bush
set alight in flame. Set between Mary and the angel, the burning bush mir-
rors the same fiery image seen by Moses. The bush is alight but not
burnt to represent Mary’s virginity. On the steps is a veil on the sewing bas-
ket, a nod to an Armenian story where Mary works on such a garment
when the divine messenger arrives. Above the two central figures are an-
gels playing music.
The flames of the burning rose bush are naturalistic and mimic real flames
from a candle burning on an altar. Unlike other works by the Greek art-
ist, figures in the The Annunciation are relatively proportionate. Here, it is
light and color that are distorted to cre- ate a scene that is in a state of constant
change. The colors and brushstrokes are used to evoke emotion rather than
the figures themselves. The backdrop is blue and grey, contrasting with the
vibrant yellow, blue, crimson and green of the saintly figures and dove.
The Annunciation has Expressionist elements, a style that El Greco used in
his paintings towards the end of the 1590s. The painting was one part of a large altarpiece created for the Augustin-
ian College of Nuestra Señora de la Encarnacion in Madrid from 1596 to 1600. The Annunciation and other pieces of
the altarpiece were dismantled and removed during the French occupation of Spain.
Doménikos Theotokópoulos, more commonly known as “El Greco” or “The Greek,” was born in Crete in 1541.
He trained within the Post-Byzantine school of Crete, which at the time was part of the Republic of Venice. El Greco
moved to Venice when he was 26. In 1577, he moved in Toledo where he continued to paint and study for the rest of
his life. In was in the Spanish city that El Greco created his most famous paintings and sculptures. He died in 1614.
