Countries that speak a different language to the religion they are aligned with flag

RE: Countries that speak a different language to the religion they are aligned with flag

Some might not want to simplify it to this extent to consider it the same as current language, but it is an idea.

The Bible was written in a variety of languages including Syrian, Greek, and Roman, The Hebrews wanted to have little to do with the cult that hijacked their scripture.

Similarly, the Hebrews were unlikely to want to have much to do with a cross. That particular torture implement was a symbol of Roman imperialism and oppression, though the Romans hardly had a monopoly on that bit of nastiness.

It's a bit like wondering if folks with stars on their flags have to twinkle merrily before ending their lives in a thermonuclear detonation. I dread to think what the maple leaf means for Canadians.
