I disagree. Though I do see the cross being used in Idol worship by many churches, I personally think it's a stretch to say it's Satanic. It's a flag. A symbol of Christianity. Do you have any more to back up your theory or did ya just think it all up and post?

The backbone of control today is the Illuminati. As a reminder to all who dare cross the power structure what will happen to them, the cross is prominently displayed in virtually all churches and remains the major symbolic cornerstone to the faith, because even the most powerful and most revered by the masses, even their god, will either bow down to them, or else will be killed by them.
That alone aside from the morbidity of it, should be enough to take down your crosses and throw them out, but then as we open up the bible and read from it we see that Idolatry is forbidden.
The cross is a satanic symbol and an idol worshiped (there is evidence it was worshiped before Christ was sentenced to death on it) by the masses. Moreover the gold and silver crosses are expensive and could easily be melted down and sold to help with shelter, food and clothing for the poor.

Er... actually it is a symbol (not idol) of what Christ did. Not a "reminder to all who dare cross [us]."

The question of whether Christ was crucified with three or four nails has long been debated, and can hardly be answered with references to medieval treatises or ancient iconic traditions..... The belief that three nails were used is called Triclavianism.
