It should be remembered that in the same way as Zionism based on Judaism, Serbian nationalism based on Orthodox Christianity. 500-year Serbian struggle against Turkish Muslim oppression was driven by Serbian Orthodox religion. Nazi Ustasha Croats exterminated Serbs beacuse of their Orthodox faith. My opinion is when Serbs use their religious attributes to express their love to the homeland, it has nothing to do with missionizing and I don't see any problem with it.
Just for example, there are countries like Denmark whose national flag depicts a cross, and the Jews don't have any problem with it because it is a national and not religious symbol.

It's still a cross though, and this is a Jewish forum. There are other ways to show respect.

In your opinion Mo, is there a problem with the flag of Denmark or Serbian coat of arms? They both depict cross. Or you have problem only with the original picture?

I would imagine a Coat of Arms is okay.....but I'm not a mod. If they say it's all okay, they I'm on bored. They know what's best.
SW:
I am sorry if I hurt someone with that cross. It's just a nice picture of a cross (orthodox chruch of Serbia).
Shamgar:
I'm OK with crosses. I am OK with Star of David. Have several of each in my home. You guys are getting way too serious. :P
Jasmina:
I don't think anyone wanted to offend Jews by posting a Serbian symbol...please don't feel that way, thank you
