I don't care what religion a person is, but I am a strong believer in, "Thy shall keep thy religion to thy self" I don't tell my Christian friends what to do and vise versa. People are capable of making morally right decisions without being told what to do by a religious leader.

The reason the majority of Christian churches have crosses free from the crucified body of Jesus Christ is because we believe he is no longer on the cross but has been raised from the dead. In the resurrected life of Jesus Christ we see immortality and have the hope of eternal life because of his example.
