Dieter, you sound like me just about a week ago asking the same question. Hang around a while & listen to him. You'll love it.

I'm older than dirt. Grew up in the '60's. Know where the peace symbol came from?

I just saw a post above that once again called an individual that is a Christian a hypocrite. My request is, would that same person that made the that worn out comment tell me of one single person that ISN'T a hypocrite? I only need 1. Out of the entire population of the earth, just tell me of 1 human being that isn't a hypocrite in some form or fashion. Bonus points for where the peace symbol came from.

Still waiting. And since you've had more than enough time to look up the origin of the peace symbol by now, no extra points.

Everyone is a Hypocrite to a certain extent.....not everyone try's to push their religion into your life...or thinks their sh*t don't stink and has a Holier than thou attitude.....

But I get your point.....everyone is a Hypocrite.......



THE PEACE SYMBOL

There have been claims that the symbol has older, occult or anti-Christian associations. In South Africa, under the apartheid regime, there was an official attempt to ban it. Various far-right and fundamentalist American groups have also spread the idea of Satanic associations or condemned it as a Communist sign.

CRAP!!!!.....NO POINTS!!!!!....

As You said, "not everyone tries etc..." So some do & some don't. And everyone has different opinions about who is & who isn't. So what? Don't like it? Don't listen. And it's not a question of degree. You can't say you're a bigger hypocrite than me. We all are. Period. Just quit painting with such a broad brush. Next time say,"You & I are both hypocrites."

Peace Symbol: Came about in the late 50's in Britain with the Nuclear Disarmament movement. It's the semaphore letters for "N" & "D". "Nuclear Disarmament."
I'm afraid you're right M1AMAN. But I just keep banging my head against the wall. Talk about stupid.

Hi FALM16. I graduated from a christian H/S so I heard all of the arguments, too. All you can do is what you did. Just keep trying. I congratulate you. I always liked Jesus Christ Superstar. Still watch it, too. The music is great. It's all about the way Judas viewed Christ. I have never understood the problem people have with it. What would you expect Judas Iscarot to say? I thought it was very well done.i
