I'm looking for opinions please. Is it okay to have the Chi Rho symbol as the main logo for my business card? Although I don't do gospel magic as such, I am a Christian who is a mentalist and it seemed to me a great talking point if anyone asks when doing effects, what the symbol means. I just don't know if it is disrespectful or morally right or not? If that makes sense?

What is the "Chi Rho" symbol, and what does it represent?

A "side"comment:

I've been amazed at how much info I can get from Google.. About a year ago my Bible on a PC program died (when the associated computer died).
So one day I was trying to remember where a certain Bible passage was, and thought I'd give Google a chance.. remembering only a few words from the passage, I gave it a try. BINGO there it was. Google has been able to "name that verse" in as few as 2 or 3 words.

While there is much about the internet that is negative , it is truly amazing how many good resources are available for Bible study or understanding things like Christian symbolism.

One of my favorites is the Catena Bible app which has a very readable format and cross-references with commentary from many Christian teachers going back to the earliest periods of Christianity. (i.e. "The Church Fathers") . You can use it on your Mac or PC computer or also on iOS for iPhone or iPad. (I think it is also avaiable for Android phones and tablets, but I'm not sure , because I don't have an Android device) .

Update

Recently, Google found the verse I was looking for with 1 (one) word!

Given today's date, I thought I should clarify, this was NOT an April's fool joke.
