Well, Christians use mainly the cross, because our faith is based on the fact that we believe that Jesus died for our sins and rose again. Another sign that is used is the fish. They used this sign back long ago when Christian persecution was going on and people had to figure out if they could trust someone. They would draw half of a fish, and if the person was a Christian, they would draw the other half. If they didn't, the Christian knew not to trust them becaus they could be persecuted.
