>The Red Crescent Society exists because in some Islamic countries it is illegal to proselytize and they take the same paranoid view of the Red Cross as a christian symbol as you are taking. In most places, regardless of the religious origin, the red cross is not a religious symbol.> I am not taking the view that Red Cross is perceived as a religious symbol. The evidence seems to be contrary as Yiwu and you have indicated. However, you cannot deny that it has some religious origins and possibly some subconscious affiliations. To those who are not Christians, the Red Cross still needs their money and so will not go all out to make them think otherwise. For Christians, the brand is already deeply internalized. How many christians do you think have been donating to the Red Crescent? Do they think that it is equivalent, even though the two organizations are equivalent as you say? How many Christians will donate to the Red Trident? -Arun
