My mother went to Israel and just came back. She's Catholic and went to Israel to see the Holy Land. She came back and gave me a star of David. She said it was blessed. I am Catholic myself and wearing it simply because she says it's blessed. Is it wrong to wear it? Would people get offended?

Is this off topic in the same way a request for psak is off topic?– andrewmh20Commented Feb 21, 2016 at 14:33

No one should be offended by you choosing to wear a necklace.
It's hard to say who will be offended by what as t here is always some fool that's looking to be offended by something.
That being said the star of David is not a religious symbol but a relatively new cultural symbol.
