The Crucifix means more than Christianity in this book. Mersault rejects the crucifix. It represents everything he does not believe in. He continually rejects it, he feels it represents the futile search for meaning in life. To Meursault, and Camus, life is absurd and there is no room for any sort of divine meaning in it.
