Interesting. The fish symbol is often accompanied by an acrostic of Greek letters—the first five letters of five Greek words: Iesous, Greek for "Jesus"; Christos, Greek for "anointed"; Theou, Greek for "God"; uios, Greek for "Son"; and soter, Greek for "Savior". Together, this spells ICTHUS, which as an acrostic means "Jesus Christ, God's Son, the Savior." Just in case, anyone wanted to know.Sara
