Can anyone tell me what religion this symbol goes with?
I live in the most conservative Christian area imaginable. Tonight, I saw a car with a sticker on the back that I had never seen before. It was a pink triangle with a blue circle in the middle, with a cross in the blue circle with a curved arrow coming from the bottom of the cross to the top, and another from the top to the bottom. Any idea what religion this is a symbol of? Just curious, because there's NO religious diversity around here. My husband and I are considered heretics because we are liberal Methodists.

3. Hrmm...
pink triangle = gay
circle with cross = bullseye
curved arrow = recycling

Therefore, it's a gay environmental hunting group logo. :P

4. from the Internet:

The transgender pride symbol is a pink triangle with a blue figure that incorporates the signs for Mars and Venus. In the center is a blue circle. An arrow pointing to the upper right corner completes the sign of Mars. A cross extending toward the point at the bottom of the triangle makes the sign of Venus. A crossed arrow pointing toward the upper right corner of the triangle combines the two.
