The five pointed star is a Christian symbol that has been co-opted and imbued with satanic meaning in the 20th century. in the 1800's it was recognized by all Christians to mean the star of Bethlehem, (epiphany) or referring to the five suffering of Christ. In much the same way the rainbow or "sign of the Covenant between God and Noah" has been co-opted by the gay rights movement.

Any Christian in the 1800's who saw them on the Nauvoo temple, which was built then, would have understood the plain meaning and references to Christ. The advances of secularism and liberalism in the US today are so bad that we get FReepers who do not recognize their own Christian symbols and their meaning.

I guess we'll now be shown pictures of STARS on Christian churches; right?

The five pointed star is a Christian symbol that has been co-opted and imbued with satanic meaning in the 20th century.

The Inverted Pentagram is and has been an evil symbol just as an Inverted Cross is used in Satanic rituals.

LDS propaganda sites like this one try and justify the use of this Satanic and Masonic symbol.

That is from a sight that supports that, and is even sympathetic towards Mormon Masonic used of the symbols (the Knight's Templar crowd)!

"Knights Templar" and Masonicupright pentagram represented summer, while the inverted or points down pentagram was a representation of winter. It is rumored that Lévi formed two illustrations of the pentagram. The first, his good orientation, featured the five points of a man within the points of the Pentagram. This is called the microcosmic man and represents the four elements, earth, wind, fire and water represented as the man's limbs with his head representing the spirit. Next to the Microcosmic Man, he is alleged to have drawn the inverted pentagram as the goat's head or Baphomet. In so doing, he formed for the first time, a differentiation between good and evil symbolized by the pentagram. The Baphomet sigil or simply Baphomet has become the official symbol of The Church Of Satan, which was started by Anton Szandor La Vey in 1966. Satanists and pseudo-Satanists have used this sigil all over the world. The illustration below shows the two sketches attributed to Lévi. While this illustration has been connected to Lévi, our research shows the earliest use of this image was in "A Pictorial History of Magic and the Supernatural" by Maurice Bessy originally published in French in 1961 and making its first English translation in 1964, many years after the death of Lévi.

Now, look at the other Masonic symbols on the Nauvoo Temple besides the Satanic Inverted Pentagram.

Given this, are you still trying to tell us all the Inverted Pentagram, just like the Inverted Cross, is not a Satanic symbol?
