U.S. Military Weapons Inscribed With Secret 'Jesus' Bible Codes

Anyone else creeped out/pissed off/sickened by this?

Coded references to New Testament Bible passages about Jesus Christ are inscribed on high-powered rifle sights provided to the United States military by a Michigan company, an ABC News investigation has found.
...
Trijicon confirmed to ABCNews.com that it adds the biblical codes to the sights sold to the U.S. military. Tom Munson, director of sales and marketing for Trijicon, which is based in Wixom, Michigan, said the inscriptions "have always been there" and said there was nothing wrong or illegal with adding them. Munson said the issue was being raised by a group that is "not Christian." The company has said the practice began under its founder, Glyn Bindon, a devout Christian from South Africa who was killed in a 2003 plane crash.

Ugh.

So much for the Jesus who said, "Put your sword back into its place; for all who take the sword will perish by the sword" (Matthew 26:52).

This is just creepy. I can't understand why this was considered a good idea by anyone.
