I'm bringing over a really nice explanation by IhateMondays @ TWoP:

Quote:
If we go by The Pieta, Christ is the Lamb of God, offered in sacrifice. The role of Mary is compassionate yet seeking justice for what happened. ...Veronica was thinking her father was dead. She is the victim here. Logan is playing the role of someone awaiting for justice to come because he feels Veronica/The Lamb of God gave so much to many people and doesn't deserve the suffering.
