No, I wouldn't wear one. It's not that the symbol bothers me. I just don't wear necklaces and I've never seen tie clips or cufflinks shaped like crucifixes.

Yep... maybe the Egyptian fertility symbol one...
But not any cross that identifies me as part of a modern religion that is based on fairytales.
And the ankh is based on ...???

I don't like wearing jewelry. Now, if it were a requirement for salvation ... sure!

I love to wear gold. I don't wear one right now, but I am shopping for one next year. My Grandfather has worn a nice 18k crucifix on a matching chain he bought couple of years after he immigrated (before I was born), and I am hoping he will leave it with me when he goes to meet Jesus in person. It would mean a lot to me.

mind my own
They don't have any symbolism in my life as I do not consider myself religeous. Therefore I don't forsee a situation arising that I would wear one.

Snowbird, Snowbird, Snowbird.

That is a dead, foreign religion.
Therefore wearing it's symbols it totally cool.

Thanks for clearing that up BTS...
The idea is that I would be just as happy to wear the ankh as I would a playboy bunny... they are all meaningless fertility symbols... and my post was tongue in cheek, designed to rile the Xians up... hehe...
But I wouldn't wear a cross or any other religios symbol, as I don't believe in organized religion or fairytales...
Actually, I would like a FSM fish to wear around my neck though!
