Idolatrous symbol?
Question
Is there any problem with buying or having at home objects that have a "+" symbol on them, for example a drawing of the Swiss flag? Is this considered a cross when the two lines, the vertical and the horizontal that intersect it, are of equal length? (This is common on souvenirs brought from abroad, and we receive them as gifts from a close relative who sometimes travels.)
Thank you.
Answer
Shalom and blessings
This is not idolatry.
