They should have stuck with the fishes, much less divisive.
As Bill hicks said 'If jesus came back the last thing he'd want to see is a crucifix'
I have never, nor will I ever, understand this. To wear a murder weapon around your neck and believe it makes you closer to your god? Freaky.
I also never understood why so many religious folk purport that crucifixion was such a unique way for the J-Man to die. It was common practice, so he wasn't special in the regard either.
