Good find!
The ah.. "problem" (that's the understatement of the ages) with that symbol emblem, just for the record, isn't the cross itself, which signifies
the willing, and neccessary, self-sacrifice of the high priest of the universal temple of the living God, who said "I ask for mercy, not
sacrifice."
Love, not hatred, is the governing dynamic of the universe, and there is just no place anymore, either on this world, or in any other for this kind of
thing, it's time has come to an end, and those who continue to practice such things will surely pay a heavy price, although all vengeance belongs to
God alone, who is just in his judgements.
It is important however, to remember, that the high standard of the twin pillars of justice and mercy, is forgiveness, from the apex at Calvary or
Golgotha, to wherever each person lives, moves and has their being, and while alive we each have time to repent, turn and be healed. Although I would
imagine that willful persistence in such things, once warned, and the Bible is very clear on this issue (see The Revelation of John for more), may
very well be another matter altogether. Best I would think to shut the door on it all and throw away the key forever, or at least for a 1000 years!
The time has come for peace on earth and good will to men, each to a one, "Darth Vadar" (whoever he is) included.
