You mean it's meant to look like that? I always thought that those userboxes on Conservapedia got messed up, leaving a huge white space and a little picture of a cross in the corner, and nobody had bothered to fix them.Spud (talk) 03:18, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
I can't believe such a thing exists. And a pledge? Are fundamentalist Christians trying to kill satire? Jesus.

- Does the existence of this flag shock you? Then see what this does for you: Fundamentalists did not make this flag; mainline Christians did.

- The fellow who first thought of it was a Sunday school superintendent at a Methodist chapel. Back then the Methodists were big promoters of the Social Gospel and the whole "there is neither Jew nor Greek" thing.

- Hm. In all honesty, I find the flag's colors' symbolism to be fairly unobjectionable. If it had been created today it might have had something like a broken moon for supremacy over Islam or something thrown in.

- I highly doubt it. But, in any event, one real problem with the flag is that it violates the rule of tincture with the red cross on the blue canton.

- But that would mean the design couldn't use that great symbolism : )

- There are at least two ways they could have put a white border around that cross.

- Ah. You're a clever bastard, you know that? : )

[edit] "Flag" is not a proper noun.
Should this not be "Christian flag"? PintOfStout Talk Good people drink good beer. 05:30, 14 December 2011 (UTC)
- Yup.
