The Byzantine Cross consisting of 4 crossbeams in total
With one that is slanted from left on top and right on bottom
Unlike the well known 2 crossbeams that is normal
The 2 crossbeams extra which is their custom
One at the head one at the feet
There it is one very unbalanced
Due to the foot which has been breaked
More interpretions for the cross which meet
Some say the horizontal beam symbolizes secular power
and the slanted means ecclesiastic of the Byzantine
Or so one is death and one is life
of the son of God

Modern Religious Experience: Reflection Question #1
According to Mircea Eliade religion has "not vanished without a trace; [it] has contributed toward making us what we are today and so, after all, [it] forms part of our own history". In what ways has religion contributed toward your personal history?
Religion has went through my mother sides ancestory my grandmother was Christian before she met my grandfather who was a Budist. So, my grandmother became budhist too. Well in budah it is common to respect amd bow down to people who are older. So my mother, aunt, uncles all have learned to respect the elders a lot. Which I have gotten from them as a family tradition to respect elders
