Why is the word "Infidel" so popular at gun shows??

[Acera]

This past weekend I was at the Pasadena Texas Gun Show and noticed that there is a large number of T-Shirts, Hats, Stickers and even an AR lower with the word stenciled on it.

The word Infidel translates into "one without faith" While some people believe that it is exclusively a term for the non Islamic, it actually applies to Christians as well. In other terms it refers to those who deny the existence of God.

Do you think that the people selling and wearing this stuff understand the complete meaning? Or do you think that this is the only way they can place what they believe to be an anti-Islamic message on their shirt? There are even people on this board who have the word as their tag line.

I just don't understand why so many would be comfortable walking around telling the educated world that they don't believe in Christianity or Jesus as their savior.



If you don't believe me, do the research and look it up.

What if you're completely comfortable with the fact that you don't believe in Christianity or Jesus as your savior and don't mind telling other educated "non-believers" that you don't? Or even don't mind telling educated "believers" that you don't?

Of course I still agree with your premise that it certainly seems to be a misguided approach to and anti-Islam sentiment. Not something I'd want branded on my AR even though it's certainly accurate in my case.
