27. Just because someone has a fish logo does not make them "holierthanthou"
You don't know anything about the person in the car because they have a logo that is a centuries old symbol for christianity on their car except for one thing: they identify themselves with the christian faith. They may be members of Democratic Underground, or they may be right wing nutballs. An emblem isn't going to tell you that.

That said, what makes me more irritated than anything is the immature "emblem" war that both immature christians and immature non-christians participate in - the whole "darwin" emblem thing. First there was the Christian emblem. Then there was the Darwin emblem (which to me goes fine right along side the Christian emblem with no contradiction for me) then there was the christian eating darwin emblem, etc. etc.

I got so fed up with the whole thing, I finally got my own: It was a fish that said "N' Chips" inside of it. :)
