It does indeed have a cross honoring the Christian heritage and a (almost) rainbow, not related to homosexuality. Personally, I like the flag of the good state of Oregon ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_Oregon ), the only one with differing sides. I fly the stars & stripes when in the US (except on Thursdays, when it's the double cross emblem of the Jefferson Republic) and while in Brazil, the 'Ordem e Progresso' banner. Nice symbolism all around.
