“Some people”

And some people believe crop circles are made by extraterrestrials.

There’s no historical basis for associating that particular symbol with “Mammon”, so whoever is telling them that is merely ignorant. From what I can tell, that particular symbol was made up for the movie “Constantine”. Furhter, any “personification” of Mammon as an actual being is an artifact of later non-religious works such as “The Faerie Queene” by Spenser, or various later occultists. The Bible uses the word exclusively as a metaphor for worldly wealth and money, not for an actual demon.

But hey, you keep adding things to the Bible that aren’t there. I’m sure you know more than its author did.

Some people of the limited people she has spoken to, as opposed to the zero people who impressed on her that is quite obviously a Celtic Cross.

I am not adding anything, I said the symbol of Mammon at least makes sense from a religious point of view.

Unless you think God owes you the answer to every mystery... tell the next lotto numbers while you are here.

I at least hope you realize that you utterly failed at telling us why the symbol could be a Celtic Cross while desperately clinging to every angle as to why it can’t possibly be the symbol of Mammon (which people are telling her it was).

Have a nice day Little Pig.
