Obviously, the 6 stripes represent the wounds Jesus received on the cross – 2 in the feet, 2 in the hands, 1 in the side, and 1 collective wound on the head from the crown of thorns.

@Stephen, that’s because while everyone knows what the 50 stars stand for, no one really knows what the strips stand for these days.

I’m surprised no one’s pointed out that there are only 6 stripes.

Fundies say they are the best patriots. At least get the stars right.

Isn’t this a separation of church and state issue? I’m thinking someone will get annoyed over the sign (like the next door neighbor) and this will end up going to court, etc. I remember the “old days” when I used to drive around with my magnetic scripture signs on the back of my car and a few people would give me a one-fingered salute. Of course back then, I couldn’t wait until testimony time to tell the congregation of my “persecution”.
