I find it ridiculous that the military complains about it. If a product has a pentagram on it, are Christian soldiers going to reject a rifle scope because of that? How many LEO's refuse to wear the badge because it contains a symbol that some consider to be the sign of Lucifer? Likewise, I wear a uniform that has the Staff of Aesculapius on it, which is a pagan deity. Worse yet, some of our equipment has the Caduseus on it. This is the "charmer" who charms the two snakes into not fighting, and is also the conductor of souls to their subterranean abode. It is the sign of the "slick salesman."

If you look at military insignia in general, there are all kinds of symbols tied to pagan Greek mythology and devil worship.

So, we have the symbols of pagan gods all over the place, and are required to wear them, but someone's nose is out of joint because "JN 8:12" is microprinted on a scope?

Get a life!

How could you choose just one. I'd want them all. Those are all good verses. I'm in favor of what Trijicon is doing. Too bad so many in our country are blind. I just wished then engraved pistols but then which verse. They are all good. :)
