It does say something in the Old Testement about body markings being a sin as I recall. Does anyone know exactly where? Is there anything that says wearing the cross is a sin? I think I'll go look it up tonight.

No one should be afraid to wear or display a symbol of their faith. Especially not in this country. It's freedom OF religion, not freedom FROM religion!
There can't be a reference to wearing a cross in the Old Testement because it was hundreds of years before Jesus' was crucified so it wouldn't have any meaning to them back then.

I wear a cross all the time. God's never complained about it to me yet. Until HE tells me different, I'll keep wearing it.

Maybe since your cross is on a ring finger, people see it as being upside down which is a symbol of Satan worship???

There are some Churches that think wearing any jewelry or adornments is wrong. I personally don't. Yes, I dance too! (well, I used to before I got arthritis) The Bible does say that's ok. It's in the Psalms.
