Hi Peter

< If I wear a cross - you will assume that I am a Christian. >

Which might offend me...

< If I wear the Star of David you will think me a Jew >

...which might offend someone else.

< and a pentangle will tell you that I am a Pagan. >

...which does offend some xtians.

< Mike wants to change the meaning of a symbol overnight and that he cannot do. >

Aye...only thru gradual, lengthy education can things change. The people who want to keep it as symbol of vilification, let 'em keep it. Victims will be victims. I know that's damn harsh - but it's true. Curious how, in a talk I did for an audience of retired prosessionals about the Swastika Stone in Harrogate a couple of years back - the youngest must've been 60yrs - the response to the archiac nature of the symbol was one of fascination. Not one complaint. Not one shocked expression. Not one disgusted dood. And all of 'em either fought, or had mates in World War II.

Who or what are some of us trying to protect here?
