[FUNTIMES]

does anyone have any pics of the the new stuff that is dropping next week? i have loved everything this guy does and i know im going to pick some stuff up.

[Meat Bun Mike]

Some of Fall. Definitely gonna pounce on the hot Cemetery T, maybe in two colorways. On the fence about the X-ray Puke and Five Points. I'll probably bite, since I love FC's stuff more in person.

Just saw some of the fall shit up for sale at Krudmart (http://www.krudmart.com/products_new.php). None of the colorways I wanted are stocked, so I'll wait for someone else to carry the full line.

[jaymucks]

[MrMean]

we just finished printing all this a couple weeks ago. the 3M reflective on the crew neck looks pretty fresh, puke rays are dope as well.

[imthahunter333]

That's a very cool gesture, btw. Saw this on the site yesterday and hope that more labels do the same.

[FUNTIMES]

um...

whats up with the upside down cross?

I thought that was a mockery of Christianity and one of the symbols of satanism?

it is duh

[Jones]

I am a huge fan of their line... Some of it is just fucking genius.

[FUNTIMES]

sooo...when did christianity-bashing become cool? :o

it never wasnt

[imthahunter333]

sooo...when did christianity-bashing become cool? :o

stop taking things so serious. jeez. im so sick of people getting worked up over this stuff. they wouldnt print shirts with upside down crosses if it didnt offend people like YOU. the upside down cross is an anti religious symbol. it doesnt mean worship satan and drink blood and kill kids. please, be a little more open minded

[FFent Freelanc]

hmmm if we were to agree and say its anti christian would that matter? hell even if the company came out and said it, itd be their stance, its not even a matter of being cool or what not but if thats how they feel about it, then YOUR being the close minded one for saying that shouldnt be expressed, no?
at the end of the day im willing to bet it wasnt created as a logo to express their hatred for christianity lol

[imthahunter333]

You have absolutely no idea what your talking about...

The upside down cross isn't an anti religious symbol...it's an anti CHRISTIAN symbol...I don't know of many other religions other then Christianity that use the cross as a religious symbol...so it is indeed anti-christian.

And the reverted cross has long been associated with satanism in popular culture...get out the house and pickup a book or watch a movie.

So unless you support anti-christian symbols, your considered close minded?

WOW

its funny that your mad. this is why they put inverted crosses on their tees, so uptight people will get mad. i have like, 4 posts on here, you know nothing about me, but you assume, im guessing because i wasnt technical enough with my definition of the inverted cross, that i have no knowledge of the outside world. love that capitalized WOW at the end too. <3

[imthahunter333]

im sorry, now i officially have 7 posts

[G60]

if you don't like it, don't wear it.

[G60]

wear flying coffin with cheap mondays :P

[imthahunter333]

i never said the capitalized wow meant youre mad, so i dont get that. pretty mature to say the heart and the end of my post was "gay". i cant make a sacred heart icon sorry bra

[FUNTIMES]

listen, the upside down cross rules, satan rules, people like you suck.

the shirt looks cool and the print job is incredible. if you are "offended" by this because you are a close minded religious idiot, then so be it.

i will continue to support flying coffin because they consistently come out with great designs and are people who are in this for the right reasons.

[imthahunter333]

im done arguing, im 24 years old and its taking away from the flying coffin thread.

+2 for satan>:(

[Subcitizen]

Let's get to the point...Flying coffin has some sick designs! That shit is badass!

[Future Is Here]

yea , definitely respect their work, and their in some really cool respectable shops around the world too. and only a year old too. good stuff, that logo itself is just nuts, its actually a logo that people can and wanna wear

[DrHuxtable]

You have absolutely no idea what your talking about...

The upside down cross isn't an anti religious symbol...it's an anti CHRISTIAN symbol...I don't know of many other religions other then Christianity that use the cross as a religious symbol...so it is indeed anti-christian.

And the reverted cross has long been associated with satanism in popular culture...get out the house and pickup a book or watch a movie.

So unless you support anti-christian symbols, your considered close minded?

WOW

you couldn't be any more wrong the inverted cross is not an anti-christina symbol people have just tried to make it that way its actually how St. Peter was crucified upside down, as he felt he was unworthy to be crucified in the same manner that Christ died. so before you go off on some religious hissy fit make sure you got ya facts straight.

[tonyt]

picked up one of their tees a couple days ago. It def looks better in person and great print job.

[G60]

OWNED.

did you just reply to yourself?

[DrHuxtable]

And before someone says that it's the cross of saint peter...remember, this is the same symbol that's used in horror movies like the exorcist....so why even print a symbol on a shirt that could POSSIBLY lead someone to believe you support anti-christianity?

No don't try and pull that bullshit just because a symbol is misinterpreted doesn't mean i can't use it because of others ingnorance just like in america the peace sign means peace and in europe it means fuck you. Just because it has another meaning i shouldn't use it no. Thinking is essential you ass!

[Subcitizen]

Not that this means anything, but the European "Fuck You" sign is with the appropriate two fingers up, but with the backhand towards the intended target. While the "Peace" sign in America, is with the same two fingers up with the palm of the hand towards that person. It's slightly different. Otherwise, I agree with your argument. Basically, different symbols have different meanings for different people. But I think, if we all want to get along, we have to think what those symbols mean to those others. Take for instance the swastika. Many skinheads believe in what that symbol represents, and flaunt it everywhere. Does that make it morally right to do so? Probably not. But they have that right in a society with the freedom of expression. So, are you saying that just because a symbol has more than one meaning, that you have the moral right to use it, or the legal right, as in the skinheads? Just wondering.

[ackbar]

is there something wrong with opposing religious dogma?

and what does it matter if someone satirisizes satanism? its not like satan actually exists

[Subcitizen]

I wasn't necessarily taking a position just pointing out different sides of the argument. I was mostly responding to Dr Huxtable. He just seemed pretty one sided. What it really boils down to is how strongly to you believe in a symbol and how important is it for you to display it, publicly vs. how possible is it for you to offend others. That is a moral question. You have the legal right to do whatever you want.

[Subcitizen]

I can't even remember what the original posting was for. LOL!

[G60]

But either way I think brands need to have a little more sensitivity towards people's religion.



why should they? how much creativity would there be in america, in ANY type of art if the artist had to constantly wonder "oh my, if i do this, will it hurt a certain demographics feelings? will someone such as Keith get upset over it? the last thing we would want to do is make someone upset"

do you think religions such as christianity should have a little more sensitivity towards other people's beliefs? "WE are right, and ANYTHING YOU BELIEVE DIFFERENTLY will get you a free trip to hell, no questions asked"

why can't people just let other people be, believe what they want, don't worry about it, and don't try to change it?

if you know about the history of christianity and catholicism, and the atrocities committed by god, in the bible (the exodus, the flood, the caaninites, etc) and committed by men in the name of god (the crusades, the holocaust, burning of witches, etc) it would be logical that the upright cross is a more offensive symbol than one that perhaps opposes the tyranny of some sects of organized religion.


and keith, my comment last page wasn't a failed attempt at flaming, but here's a successful attempt at teaching you how to use the internet: you can edit your posts so you don't reply to yourself :)

like i have done here, i have edited my post, to show you how to edit your post =D:
http://1990corrado.googlepages.com/Capture1.jpg

to be honest, my reigious beliefs are not important to this conversation, but i believe that anyone should be able to practice whichever religion they choose, without being told that they are wrong, and without people trying to change those beliefs. religions are great things, they give people hope when they might not have any, they give them rules to live happy, good lives, but the problems come in when MAN tries to mold ANY religion to better serve him. when man tries to tell other people what to believe, when man tries to tell another man that what they believe is wrong, and they're going to hell for it. when one religion tries to become law, and censor and control things. which is exactly what you, keith are trying to do. you are suggesting censoring something because it disagrees with what you believe. what if you were the minority, and others were telling you that what you believe in disagrees with them, so you must stop.

think about it.

[DrHuxtable]

I'm sure If I was in europe I would refrain from using the peace sign in respect of European culture. If that's considered rude in Europe I wouldn't insult European people by using such a gesture. You need to grasp the concept that in reality most people see a cross upside down and automatically assume it's mocking Christianity. Taking a symbol and flipping it upside down is usually considered an insult...that's a connection a 3 year old could make. And really there's no place for this subject in this argument because WE HAVE NO IDEA what flying coffin meant by this shirt. Maybe it was a satanic statement? But either way I think brands need to have a little more sensitivity towards people's religion.

And um...you cursin alot. U MAD that you didn't read and made yourself look like a dumbass on the last page??

naw my dude never mad, but you talkin about religious sensitivity but we all have the right to freedom of speech and expression and just cause they chose to this doesn't make it wrong to do and if you fell this way about the shirt and anything else they're doing why even bother coming in their thread and waste your time whining about it

[DrHuxtable]

WARNING: For those mentally challenged of us on hypebeast.com who may regard this as a "reply" to the above post...please note that some intelligent people like to make one post for each coherent thought.

Now onto my reply...

For you to make the statement that the upright cross is somehow "offensive" is clearly anti-christian. So we know your stance on the subject...second of all, not every Christian human being can be held accountable for the acts of a radical select few... so for you to bring up the witch hunt and the crusades is irrelevent.

Second of all, I'm not forcing anyone to believe in my religion...but I do ask that you respect it. I would never disgrace any other religion by mocking them on a tshirt and I ask that you grant me the same respect.

It has been proven on more then one occasion that something that may not offend you may offend someone else to the highest extent. Remember what happend last year when a dutch company printed a cartoonish picture of the prophet Muhammad and islamists across the globe rioted because it is there belief that Muhammad should never be pictured. To us it was a simple illustration...and many thought it should be protected under our right of free speech, but to them it was an insult... one that they took very seriously I might add.

Now hopefully this will be my last post on the topic but I just want to say that I never came into this thread seeking problems with anyone or forcing Christianity down anyone's throat...I was just confused by one of the graphics of a great streetwear brand and I took offence to it. No harm done guys...chill lol.

howi is that anti-christian, just because he said something pertaining to christianity in a bad light makes his statement anti-christian..no. But your so wrapped up in your own little beliefs that you can't even see anyone elses point of view.

[DrHuxtable]

Not whining just making my opinion heard...I mean that IS why we have the free speech you keep talking about.

And yes...you do have free speech which is a huge priviledge AND responsibilty...so why not use it wisely. There are a bunch of other things I can think of to express my right of free speech other then printing upside down crosses on shirts...

But I'm done arguing. I don't have any beef with you huxtable...just stating my opinion.

And i understand i have no beef with yo either because i respect where you coming from, so lets just agree to disagree
