**But that does not exclude the need for new or renewed efforts to explain the importance of the sign of peace so that the faithful understand it and participate in it correctly, the congregation’s letter said.

It asked bishops to study whether it might be time to find “more appropriate gestures” to replace a sign of peace using “familiar and profane gestures of greeting.”**

I so dislike it when people flash me the hippie "peace" sign. Profane in my estimation.

I think the hippies hijacked that sign much as homosexuals hijacked the word “gay”.

When Winston Churchill made that sign during WWII it stood for V for victory.
