It seems like everywhere you look these days while driving on the road especially on college campuses an odd-phrased bumper sticker with religious symbols spelling COEXIST can be seen. This phrase contains the spiritual ideologies of the major world religions.
Every letter in the COEXIST phrase has a symbol representing a religious system or spiritual ideology: C for the crescent and star (representing Islam); O being dotted with the Karma Wheel (Buddhism) E as energy in the relativity equation (Science); X illustrating the star of David (Judaism); the I representing the pentagram (Wicca/Pagan); S for the Tao symbol; and T for the cross for Christianity.
The goal of this movement is the promotion of a pluralistic and universal utopian worldview. At the heart of this movement is the abandonment of core absolutes and values (moral and spiritual.) This movement seeks to undermine personal beliefs and practices for the supposed betterment of world unification. Its most damnable feature, however, is the staunch rejection of the sovereignty and reality of Almighty God, His authoritative Word (the Bible), and His Savior to all fallen men, the Lord Jesus Christ (John 14:6; Acts 4:12; 1 John 2:22-23). The chief Promoter of this godless ecumenical movement is the godless music industry and the pop icon Bono from the band U2. Hollywood and the fashion industry also promote this movement with an array of clothing products, gear and bumper stickers.
A phrase from the Coexist website states, Coexist is a concept brand for everyone, connecting people and planet, together we symbolize life, love and global harmony.

I hate that bumpersticker. It’s thoroughly dishonest and misleading.
There’s a whole lotta stupid behind that bumper sticker.
Doesn’t it anger people that they associate their movement with “evil Christians?”
When the opportunity arises, I simply ask the person with one of those stickers that I need some instructions on how to coexist with someone who beleives it is their religious duty to saw my head off with a dull knife.
It is usually followed by the expected FU accompanied by the single finger salute. I just smile back to them and extend all of my fingers while showing them the back of my hand and saying five times back to ya.
Maybe I should start asking them if Nocholas Berg had one of those stickers on his car.
How are they distributed?
Best regards,
It's often surrounded by "Obama '08", the "=" (gay) sticker, "Keep Your Laws Off My Body" and "Close The School Of The Americas" stickers.
Generally, the bumper sticker is put on the REAR bumper, so the person BEHIND the bumper is reading it.
If you're the one reading it, you're the one BEHIND the sticker. Which means...?
I'm just sayin' :)
The ones that I see are mostly going to or coming from a university campus. Just another reason it is so much fun asking them logical questions.
behind the sticker is the idiot that put it on. like behind the mirror?
Religious Plurality is a contradiction.
One of those religions is nothing more than a violent, repressive cult bent on taking over the world.
But you see, I was born with an over active smart alec gland. It allows me to see and hear what others say, and twist it to mean what they say, but not what they mean.
Call it...a gift.
And have fun with it. I do. ;)
You guessed it. A "co-exist" bumper sticker.
Had I not stopped suddenly, to make way for this traffic-law-breaker, we both most likely would have continued "to exist", but car bumpers, doors, perhaps a tire & wheel along with suspension componenets, would have needed to have been replaced. There might have been a bent frame or two...which could lead an insurance company to declare a vehicle a total loss.
One good rule of thumb for those wishing to "co-exist";
So you figure the sticker is facing the same direction as the car? It’s kinda hard to get them to stick that way, and very hard to read them. Just saying.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Al-Kūt (Arabic: الكوت; BGN: Al Kūt; also spelled Kut-Al-Imara or Kut El Amara) is a city in eastern Iraq, on the left bank of the Tigris River, about 100 miles south east of Baghdad. As of 2003[update] the estimated population is about 374,000 people.[1] It is the capital of the province long known as Al Kut, but since the 1960s renamed Wasit.
And don’t forget, the “Union Yes” and “My kid knocked up your honor student” stickers.
On the other hand, if you're behind the car, and the car is backing up, the sticker is then moving forward towards you, which means...
The driver is probably muslim,and is trying to run over your infidel self.
Allah Akbar!
(Or a "tolerant" Obama supporter, intolerant of your intolerance)
