fashion cross pendant

My wife says that even though she's no longer a christian she finds that it's wrong for rappers to wear crosses when they don't fallow bible principals, I guess it's like a misrepresentation or something. But I was like "baby, rappers wear crosses and relate themselves as the theif who was on the cross next to Jesus" and then my wife had this to say "that person WAS a theif but he wasn't anymore right before he died because he repented and no longer condoned that life style, rappers are wearing crosses while they sin and do it intentionally, that is what's wrong with it and it offends me"

I'm a hardcore rapper, and I want a cross pendant too but I consider my wife's feelings about it. So I don't know... How do y'all feel about people who wear crosses for fashion, jewelery and/or tattoos?

Symbol are just that: symbols. Cross represents Christianity to many modern day western people because it reminds them of Jesus. However, if the the arm length is the same, it becomes a Greek Cross, which symbolize the four elements and four cardinal directions as a pre-Christian symbol. It was later associated with Christianity after Jesus died. Add a circle at the center of a Christian-style cross, and you get the Celtic cross, which have both Christianity and pre-Christianity meaning. If you have a equal-arm length cross in a circle, it have pagan meanings similar to the early Greek Cross.Cross was use as a symbol long before Jesus dead on a wooden cross. Cross in used Egypt, Buddhism, Hidduhism, Gnostics, Kabbalists... the list go on, many of which far before Jesus died - and I think they will probably be more justified in term being "offended" by "cross is Chirstianity only" since they actually use it first. I think isolating the cross as a Christian-only thing is like saying that only Christians do good works: it's not only ignorant, but also discriminating. What can be more sinful than to use your religion, something so sacred and full of love, to exclude yourself as a "better person" and to create hatred in others and yourself?
