Having been raised by a non-member Christian mother I can tell you my mom does wear a cross. She looks at the cross as a symbol of sacrifice. However, we Mormons dont want to even come close to honoring his death - Even though I can tell you my mother, and other christians do not. This is not about pointing the finger at the different religions and saying "I'm right and your wrong". Its simply what we mormons choose to not use as a symbol of Christ.
Its too bad that, when talking about Christ, there are things that are chosen to divide us, rather than bring us together. Afterall, since we are talking about the pure love of Christ, you'd think it would be the opposite ... wouldnt you?
