Alright I'm willing to admitt something as a Christian creationist. The argument that "if we evolved from monkeys why are there still monkeys?" is complete foolishness, borders hilarity, and represents a complete lack of understanding of the theory of evolution.
That being said can anyone find humor in this argument?
"The shape of the [two-beamed cross] had it origin in ancient Chaldea, and was used as the symbol of the god Tammuz (being in the shape of the mystic Tau, the initial of his name) in that country and in adjacent lands, including Egypt. By the middle of the 3rd century A.D. the churches had either departed from, or travestied, certain doctrines of the Christian faith. In order to increase the prestige of the apostate ecclesiastical system, pagans were received into the churches apart from regeneration by faith, and were permitted largely to retain their pagan signs and symbols.
