@alphabattle, yes non-Christians can use a phrase, however I am reffering to the term 'Cross my heart' referring to placing a cross on your heart.

The phrase means "I promise" but you are using a Christian context. Simple as that. It's the same as a Muslim or Jew celebrating Christmas. Nowadays everyone celebrates it, and the religious meaning behind it is gone or non-existent for them, however it doesn't mean its not there.

I don't know why threads go off into such tangents so easily or why there are arguments that try to defeat the main issue.
