Pre-emptive:
Yes, the cross. Haven't you ever wondered how it came about that the folks that love Jesus would adopt an icon of his horrible death as a symbol of his worship? True, it was used as a Christian symbol before European pagans added it (it was a part of their harvest celebrations... binding together wheat stalks from this years harvest in cross form and hanging it on the wall for next year,) but it was also a religious symbol long before Jesus was born and assimilated into Christian tradition later. Convenient.
Now, go and get on a plane for Africa.

How can someone who obviously thinks so much of their ideas have so little respect for expressing them? How can someone who so yearns to be taken seriously make so little effort?!
