I myself have been known to wear all sorts of symbols associated with spiritual traditions - ankh, pentacle, images of Durga, Ganesh, Avalokiteshvara, Bast, etc. etc.
But it's always been something I believed in or at least had an affinity for, and I was always prepared to explain it to people with questions. I would never wear a cross (even though I have been peripherally involved in the whole Goth scene where some use it as a fashion accessory) because it is not something I believe in. As for others, let them wear whatever they want, but they should know that people will be responding to that, like how I reacted to my co-worker with the cross pendant.
