It was accidentally released into the game and then pulled after a few seconds. It was pulled because Zynga had implemented a no religion policy and the cross violated that.

You could always track down purple and that other ninja that still play, maybe they can shed more light on why Zynga violated their own policies.

Whatever the answer, the cross is a source of enmity and should be released.

I'm not here to debate...only to confirm it was released...and although it was short-term/accidental, pretty sure it was more than "a few seconds". Also not here to debate whether or not the length of time it was released was or was not long enough to satisfy BVG or players....it's been done to death.

I think yes it was .Not sure exactly time wise I had JUST started March 09 and from what I remember it was out less than 10 minutes... Then pulled cause so many were tossing a fit it was religious and they don't believe in religion.. I think IF something is out you are against DON'T BUY THEN STOP RUINING IT FOR US WHO DO WANT..They pulled to make others happy so Thjat item for that reason NEEDS to be put out for us to get fairly cause reason it was pulled was not fair..

To the best of my knowledge and if my memory serves me well, it was released for around 30 mins before it was pulled out from the store. The reason is that I bought one from the store for 1000 coins, yes 1000 coins. Apparently, there was a huge outcry from some YoVillians regarding it's religious symbolism.

It was released. But due to it's religious meaning it was pulled after they realized it may cause hate and discontent with those that are of other religions or non religious etc. So yes indeed it was released.

It was released for a time and then removed when players (some) complained about the religious aspect of it. Much like the mouth urinal...it was removed after players complained about it being inappropriate.
