They hold no value in themselves except for that which the user imparts into them. A cross can be a Christian symbol or it can be a pagan symbol. A "peace" symbol can represent peace or it can represent war. It all depends on what meaning it has for you. ------- Jim McIntosh (JIM@AUVM) The American University Washington DC 20016 USA
