    "(its only recently that I discovered that this has something to do
    with christianity and is not the badge of some type of bad drivers
    club!), " 

    Well before Christianity, the fish symbol was known as "the Great
    Mother," a pointed oval sign, the "vesica piscis" or Vessel of the
    Fish. "Fish" and "womb" were synonymous terms in ancient
    Greek,"delphos." http://www.atheists.org/church/fish.html 

    For a look at how the car bumper fish symbol has evolved see Fish
    symbol taxonomy: http://www.meangene.com/darwin/taxonomy.html
