This is what we've come to, that a manufacturer putting nearly invisible cryptic references to Bible verses on an ACOG is somehow establishing a state religion.

Come to think of it, how DO they get that off? And why does it leave such a scar? I don't think I've ever handled a post-2003 ACOG, so I'm not familiar with the location or size, but I was under the impression that the citations were tiny.

And if the sight maker had been Muslim and put Quran quotes on the sights, you would be outraged. The quotes have no place on the equipment much less in those wars.

It's still a christian reference on a weapon used to fight in muslim countries. Unless you are someone who likes the idea of a religious war, it's not a good idea to have it on there. Sends the wrong message to the muslims, just like their victory mosque is tacky.
