I can't count the number of pieces of jewelry that have a the symbol of the cross. We might not kiss them and we say we don't worship them, but once you assign a "symbol" to a deity it's a slippery slope.
Some might use a cross to help them be "reminded" of Christ. Others might use a picture of the devil to remind them of Christ. Outwardly there's no difference in their practices because nobody but God knows your inward motivation.
God in his wisdom knew that symbols, icons, and images were subject to human design and human interpetation. That's why he said "No graven images", so that we wouldn't limit him or his power to our images.
Do you consider someone informing you of true facts bashing?

Didn't take it that way ... no worries.
