Nope, not even then, lol.
I'm big into Led Zeppelin. Even bigger into Pink Floyd. Rolling Stones are cool, I can even get into a little Skynard. I guess I like some SOAD stuff... that's probably metal, right? That's the heaviest stuff I'm into, though.
SOAD are some kind of metal I guess. I like them, wife and I listened a lot to their stuff in the early 2000s when we were dating, so I have some nostalgic connection to it - I never saw them live though. Led Zeppelin are of course awesome. Of the live concerts on YT, I like this one the best: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oFkzZHIcgFs They hadn't yet published Stairway to Heaven, so they are not playing it, which is a huge plus

Years ago I was fiddling around with Photoshop and came up with my own rendition of what "the mark of the beast" from Revelation would look like.
The other day I was thinking about it. I think it's a cool looking symbol, and I thought it might possibly make a great T-shirt.
If given the opportunity, would you wear one? Would you wear a symbol that told the world your allegiance lies with the Antichrist?
Of course, if you're an atheist or agnostic, it would be like wearing a T-shirt of Voldemort or Darth Vader. But the believers might have a different perspective it on.
Here's what it looks like...
Please respond to this thread with a "Yes" - I'd wear one, or a "No" - not for me ... or vote in the poll.[/b]
Thanks!
P.S. Also, feel free to share your opinions on the design of the symbol.
Fuck no! No way you'd even catch me dead wearing Tipp markings.

I once wore a "Mark of the breast" t-shirt.
All that was written on it was "tit, tit, tit".
That counts, right?

Oh come on, Stairway is a great song, even if it is ripped off from a Spirit record.
“Love is the only bow on Life’s dark cloud. It is the morning and the evening star. It shines upon the babe, and sheds its radiance on the quiet tomb. It is the mother of art, inspirer of poet, patriot and philosopher.
It is the air and light of every heart – builder of every home, kindler of every fire on every hearth. It was the first to dream of immortality. It fills the world with melody – for music is the voice of love.
Love is the magician, the enchanter, that changes worthless things to Joy, and makes royal kings and queens of common clay. It is the perfume of that wondrous flower, the heart, and without that sacred passion, that divine swoon, we are less than beasts; but with it, earth is heaven, and we are gods.” - Robert. G. Ingersoll

It's like wearing the confederate flag. To some people it's merely a flag that represents the Southern states, and they wear it because they are from the South. But to many people it means slavery, so why would anyone wear it?
Yeah...but, the Confederate States were like...real.
That's completely beside the point. The point is, why wear something that will purposely put off a large # of people? Even if it doesn't mean anything bad to you, it does to many people.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

How many people would have to be offended by your crucifix to get you to stop wearing it?

As you say, I'm not eager to wear your t-shirt because I'm not the kind of guy who seeks out a Voldemort or Darth Vader t-shirt either. Maybe if someone gave it to me. Nice design, though.
I'd wear an FSM t-shirt because it makes a point about skepticism and it would usually be recognized by my people.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
