actually i do not read Conraus posts, he has made it perfectly clear that he wishes to have no part in any discussion with either myself nor Galvo. If only he would keep his word. You may refer to one of his previous posts.
Once again you are making the mistake of declaring an opinion, in this case your own opinion as being synonymous with some ...[text shortened]... d and spiritually clean before God. Your claims of irrelevance are based on what? who can tell.
What I claimed is that for Christians who symbolize the cross, the past pagan significance of the cross to which you referred is irrelevant to what these persons today take the cross to stand for and why they take it to be meaningful. What is this claim based on? It is based on descriptive fact concerning what sorts of considerations do (not) inform the value they ascribe to the cross as an enduring symbol of their faith. I mean, feel free to start employing some common sense on this issue.
