I.e. 50 years ago if i said i was gay it would mean i was happy, but today if i use this expression it means i sleep with the same sex. so thus we dont use the term to explain happiness.
also if we consider rings pagen, then we put Christ in a place were He is using a pagen atribute to describe the Love of the lost son comming Home. luke 15:22
a wedding ring is not what weds a couple together but it is a symbol or a covenant symbol between you and your wife and not just a symbol but also to show that you are married. there is absolutly nothing wrong with a wedding ring.

So past symbols of idolatry or satanism are acceptable for christian use?
