personally, i'd rather non-christians not wear crosses.
i've been witness to more than one instance where a non-christian wearing a cross has called christians hypocritical.
when you wear it you're identifying yourself to others as a christian, like it or not. when you do or say things that are unbecoming of christian ideals... you're being unfair to christians by projecting yourself as one of them.
i am a christian and i do wear a cross. however, i always wear it out of sight... i'm shamed to have it hanging on my neck when i do/say things i should not.
