CA: I’m sorry I missed your post 3 months ago. The Mechaber (in the uncensored editions) says B’feirush that a cross is Avodah Zarah. The Rema there doesn’t disagree, which he should (because it’s in O.C. 114, I think; and while the Rema often relies on us knowing what he Paskened earlier, he very rarely relies on what he will Pasken later). And the Meiri’s Shittah on Avodah Zarah is so Mechudash that I highly doubt any Posek would ever even use him as a Snif Lehakel, even in an extreme Sha’as Had’chak.
