Why is it that christians say that even non christians wear a cross? Have you ever seen a hindu or a jew or a muslim wearing one? I havent, have you? Now its obvious that hindus and jews and muslims all got there garbage that they wear to represent whatever trash they believe in, so why would a non christian wear a cross when its obviously a sign of the MYTH of jesus? I think if a non christian is wearing a cross they're a little confused, just like if a person who is black is wearing a chinese flag. I've never worn a cross and never will since theres no god, and anyone who actually believes as i do wouldnt wear one unless they're confused.

well....i know some non-Christians who wear a cross b/c they like the design, but why is it such a big deal?? Jesus loves you!

The romans and celts used crosses as holy symbols long before christians, the cross symbol is found inscribed on the walls of caves and is found among stone tools and pottery which date back to 25,000 years ago. It's a corruption of the fylfot or swastika which is even older than that. Christians have no exclusive right to the cross symbol. That said, I myself refuse to wear one, as it generally tends to confuse people.

I don`t think I have seen non-Christians wearing a cross, and if some do it will be a fashion statement rather than a religious one.

Wouldn't wearing a cross count as "Idolatry"? And isn't that against the 10 commandments?

i wore one for a while, it was during my time of converting from christian to agnostic though, and i did wear it for some time after i was still agnostic. i wore it as a necklace not as a symbol. however i have a new one now, no little icon on it, just a chain.
theres not very many cool icons ive seen for necklaces, if i have to chose between something morbid, something ugly, and something religious, then my options are quite limited =\

Why do you insult Christians? What have we ever done to harm or hurt you? Even if you do have something against us I don't think you should insult us as you do. All we do is save people from burning in hell for eternity. Is that so wrong?

We say it because it happens. Watch the stars sometimes. With all the adultry and greed, more stars buy the $K crosses than anybody.

If there is no God, there is no wind, cause you cannot see the wind neither, that is why so many do not believe there is a God, because they cannot see Him. Who do you think created earth and everything on it? Who do you think created the stars, moon, planets, oceans, seas,etc.? Go ahead and be a non-believer, that is your right!

To some people, Christian and non-Christian, it's just jewelry, it doesn't really mean anything.
