The swastika existed in Buddhism for EONS before the Nazis.
It was also part of some Native American cultures; the Navajo, I think.
Please see post #17.
It was also the shoulder patch for the 45th Oklahoma Infantry till Hitler adopted it for the Nazis. The 45th changed it to an eagle because of it.
Hinduism and Buddhism - it’s one of the earliest Aryan symbols. I have a swastika on my finger ring and use it to educate idiots who call me a new-Nazi.
And before Buddhists used it, Hindus did. Navajos used it, too.
Hindu’s too, I believe.
I think that's what eventually happened on a grand scale in Europe eventually leading to WWII and then the Cold War.
First Satan planted his seeds of redefinition in Europe, primarily in Germany's fertile ground to eventually raise up Nazis, who then waged war on God's creation, followed by the Soviets who kept it going. (Fatima warnings ignored)
To play Satan's games, our human definitions and understanding of good and bad, right and wrong, moral and immoral, etc. have to first undergo a fundamental transformation away from the definitions of the Father, just like in the beginning in the Garden with the first parents.
Redefining the swastika is one example. We see the same things happening here and now in our time and in our nations. Redefining the Rainbow is another. Same as it ever was...same as it ever was.
As an aside, sometimes the Columbia Sportsware logo reminds me of a swastika. I wonder if that's a coincidence.
