the "divisive" comment amused me. perhaps people are misled by the very appearance of the peace sign being a circle divided into parts...

i had to look up how it could possibly be a satanist symbol, and i spent a lot of time in that odd combination of fascination and revulsion.
turns out that some moronspeople think that it's an upside down, broken cross, deliberately taunting their faith.
according to the absolute batshit fuckheadswebmasters at http://www.exposingsatanism.org/signsymbols.htm and http://www.nisbett.com/symbols/peace_sign.htm, basically anything that isn't a lowercase t cross is undeniably a symbol of satan and all of his works and THE DEVIL IS IN YOU CHILD GET THEE FROM ME NOW.
people fucking scare me.

WTFORLY?! There really *are* people who think it's Satanist? I thought they were just being completely ignorant of anything in the world. Wow....

i think those two descriptions go together well.
seriously, reading those pages was like listening to jasper talk about paddling:
"eye of horus? that's satanist. yin-yang? that's satanist. the 666 mark of satan? oh, you better believe that's satanist."

i would personally send this woman $5.00 to keep the thing up for the duration of the holiday season. there ought to be enough people like me on the internet for her to turn a tidy profit.
