Yes.

They may not have been originally designed that way, but that is what is now being taught by Southern Baptists and some fundamental Christian groups to children in their Sunday schools - that the red and white intertwined symbolize purity and Jesus' blood, and that the shape is to remind you of the shepherd's crook. I've confirmed this tonight with a friend who is a member of a fundamentalist church; they use Southern Baptist workbooks in their preschool classes and one of the pages his three year old son recently colored is a worksheet with a picture of a candy cane and that story.

Until next time...
