Is this a rorschach test?

I see a nomad on a camel.

I see what look like Shriners in costume.

I see symbols from ancient Egypt that pre-date Islam.

I see symbols that Muslims use that have been appropriated for more noble purposes by the Shriners. (Much like we Christians appropriated the use of pagan rites, symbols or activities thereby reclaiming what pagans had misused, in light of the incarnation of Jesus Christ, and dedicating those things to the glory of God).

The star reminds me of the star that led the eastern pagan magi to Christ where they recognized his deity and offered worship. The star also reminds me of the stars on our own American flag. Are the stars on our flag satanic or Islamic? The communists were known to stick a star or two on their flags as well. Better consult Texxe Marrs or Jack Chick.

Symbols are just that and have no intrinsic meaning, but are assigned meaning by those who use them.

Shriner imagery represents a bunch of fine men working to help little children.

That's what I see at least. What do you see?

One of the posters has made reference to Tubal-Cain being the first witch mentioned in the Bible. Can you shed any light on this?

Thanks, Axel.
