Unlike many other Christians, the LDS Church does not use the cross, crucifix or ichthys as symbols of faith. Many Mormons view crucifixion-related symbols as emphasizing the death of Jesus rather than his life and resurrection. The early LDS Church was more accepting of the symbol of the cross, but after the turn of the 20th century, an aversion to it developed in Mormon culture. In 1957, church president David O. McKay institutionalized the cultural uneasiness regarding the cross, stating that wearing cross jewelry is not appropriate for Latter-day Saints, and that the use of the cross is a "Catholic form of worship". This aversion is not entirely universal within the church; some individual members see no problem with the private, strictly personal use of a cross as a symbol of faith, or even simply a reminder of the Atonement. However, such individuals tend to be in the minority within LDS culture.
