  - As a child, I wore a Buddhism necklace with a swastika and kids at school always called me a Nazi worshiper. - hotkiss7348 Jul 7, 07:42 9
    - and when I see you I see a Nazi Sympathizer? - Mel Profit Jul 7, 07:47 7
      - I had no idea, until this thread, that the swastika had a non-Nazi meaning. - ty97 Jul 7, 07:48 5

        It's so universailly reviled now, you really can't wear it and expect people not to react. -- nm - loosilu Jul 7, 07:49
      - To be fair, that particular symbol is impossible to take back now. -- nm - loosilu Jul 7, 07:48

    - Um, Cracked talks about Paul and his reasoning, not the Bible. Two different things. (They cite Wikipedia, actually.) -- nm - mara Jul 7, 07:44

      - You sure about that? I remember learning it as a child in Church. -- nm - sycor Jul 7, 07:59
  - true but by the sounds of it...St Paul got there first. -- nm - Mel Profit Jul 7, 07:41 3
    - Shotgun! -- nm - St Paul, seeing the upside down cross Jul 7, 07:41 2
      - I don't know why but I just snarfed at this. -- nm - Mel Profit Jul 7, 07:43
