This is something that I really don't understand with the christian community. They were the cross all the time. It is their holy symbol. But yet they are not to have any idol( symbol) worship. They want to insult of faiths religious symbols like the pentacle for the pagans. Yet no person ever died on the pentacle, But the cross is a way that thousands and thousands of people have died. And if those christians did a little research, they would discover that the pentacle that they love to insult was an early religious symbol of the christians.

Yes they are very confused. An instrument of death is a holy symbol. the jesusmyth could be in heavan saying. " I am not going back... look at all those crosses. They will string me up again.." Christians are hypocrits in all that they do. They will criticize you for drinking and going to a party, but then a week later do the same thing. They are just terribly confused.

for many, the cross is just tradition and a way that Christians are identified nowadays. some wear a cross as a reminder of their faith. i don't know many Christians that go around insulting the pentacle. it may have once been a symbol of Christianity, but its tradition has since changed and it has a different meaning now. so what's the point in arguing about it?

Um, what?
1. I don't insult anyone for their beliefs.
2. I don't worship the cross. It's simply a symbol. And symbols in Christianity go all the way back to the beginning, when Christians were heavily persecuted. They had symbols so that they would know their fellow brothers and sisters.

I do not insult anyone for what they believe, nor do I worship the cross. I do not insult any religious group or symbol.

all people die. Christians prefer the cross though because they at least die with the best lawyer there is for the judgement later.

I don't worship the cross, I worship the man who hung there for my sins

More people don't bother to research their own religion, they just believe what they are told. People usually only research religions for the purpose of denigrating them. Sad to say.
