Anyway, if you're so concerned, then maybe you should also concentrate on the Congressional Medal of Honor, which is an inverted pentagram. Satanism is a relatively new concept, while the pentagram has a long and varied history, both in its point-up form and inverted. Symbols only hold the power one gives to them. The Nazis stole the swastika and gave it its modern, evil connotations, but it has a very long history as a benign symbol. - jt <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
