Well, I actually do suspect that she's making an anti-war statement, myself. The peace symbol originates with early antinuclear protests, and it's literally never existed outside of an American political context.
That said, it's not as if you can find Jesus saying a bad word for peace in most of the New Testament. Quite the contrary, if one reads the Sermon on the Mount.

It's definately satanic. I can't believe I never realized the connection between peace sign wreaths and hard-core satanism! You satan-lovin' hippies are gonna BURN!!!

Dr. Jerk

Like I haven't tried a thousand times to lose weight. Go »R.I.P. Bob
My friend and former co-worker Bob, who provided us with jerky at GooCon: Siesta Key, recently passed away of a sudden illness. He was a quirky dude, occasionally given to hostile pranks, but usually a delightful and friendly presence whenever he saw you. I don't know how much his service in Vietnam warped him, but he definitely wasn't like anyone else I knew, prone to making weird jokes and unexplained connections between ideas. Go »Home Computing

A friend recently contacted Kelly and me out of the blue to ask if we could take care of her dog for six days while she was on vacation, since the arranged sitter was suddenly unavailable. Neither Kelly nor I have experience taking care of dogs, and we're definitely not dog people. I was attacked by a dog when I was little and I've never been comfortable around them, especially any dog large enough to leap up from the ground and reach my face with its teeth. Go »
