MILITARY SHOULD SCRAP "JESUS CODE" RIFLE SIGHTS: "PROPAGANDA COUP FOR TALIBAN, OSAMA" SAY ATHEISTS.

An Atheist public policy group said Monday that rifle sights marked with a secret "Jesus Bible Code" may provide Islamic extremists with a powerful propaganda tool and egregiously and dangerously violate the separation of church and state.

According to a report on ABC News, a Michigan-based company, Trijicon, has a $600 million contract to provide U.S. forces with 800,000 of the rifle sights which are being used in Afghanistan and Iraq. The sights are marked with citations from the Bible, including one that declares that Jesus is "the light of the world."

Dr. Ed Buckner, President of American Atheists, said that he fears Islamic terrorists may take full advantage of "a major blunder that seriously risks efforts to reach out to people in Muslim countries threatened by groups like the Taliban and al-Qaeda."

"Part of the U.S. message abroad should emphasize the core American value of secular government and respect for individual religious liberty

and instead the U.S. military is promoting Christianity, literally with the barrel of a gun. We call on President Barack Obama to repudiate this effort immediately."

Is this for real? Have the company admitted that this is a "bible code"?

Here in sweden there was a christian company who made these
pedestrian signal boxes and they admitted that it was
their intention to make them like this with the finger pointing upwards
like a christian sign. It was a big fuzz in the newspapers 2 years ago.

The facts are that the company Prisma technology in Tibro manufactures the boxes to press to get the green light at pedestrian crossings. So far, as usual. But according to the company's CEO Jan Lund so does the hand that appears to point towards the button on the device at least said unknown meaning: "the only road to heaven is through God and Jesus."

- It's a story that we want to tell as many people as possible. This company lives because of God's grace. Everything is 100 percent of his earnings, "said Jan Lund.

When Aftonbladet recently reported on the hidden Christian message became overwhelming response and according to Jan Lund, most were positive.

But now, at least one person looking red. On Monday landed namely an excited message from the Parliamentary Ombudsman. "If Aftonbladet elements that push-button electronics to crossing containing religious symbols is true, there must of course mean that the authorities in any way violate the law," according to the notifier.

Jan Lund, assumes the new data with the rest.

- I think even that is good. This gives us more opportunities to talk about our faith. I feel calm and totally confident with my Savior and Lord will help us with this also, "he says
