Heard this on NPR today and thought you may find it an interesting topic. This fallen soldiers wife and others are championing to have various religious symbols such as the pentacle added to the markers of soldiers because now it seems only crosses and stars of david are allowed I believe.

There is even a symbol for atheism ( an atom with spinning electrons) that they want. That is awesome. Hooray for freedom of religion or non-religion.

Seems like I read about that somewhere else........cool. It should be. Sadly enough, I already have most of my gravestone(and it includes several 'pagan' symbols)and the craftsman to do it...kinda arrainged. God, it would suck if I died and my family had to choose the gravestone...god only knows what I would be stuck with.....flakes.

Hey! Im an Aries...a goat.....we all go to hell? Shit. I thought that I was starting @ the bottom and working my way up the whole time.....theres a worse place to go? Isnt that a bitch.

Thank you, Morgan. ;)

Its lyrics from a Cake song, btw. "Sheep Go To Heaven" off of Prolonging the Magic. I don't care if heaven is involved, I still don't want to be a sheep. :twisted:
