SYMBOL THAT HAS LOST ITS MEANING

THE CROSS

The Christian cross, seen as a representation of the instrument of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, is the best-known religious symbol of Christianity. It is related to the crucifix (a cross that includes a usually three-dimensional representation of Jesus' body) and to the more general family of cross symbols.

Now the cross is used in many different ways, for fashion, logos and symbols. It has lost it traditional Christian meaning. To many the cross is mealy seen as just 2 lines, horizontal and vertical.
