you would have never guessed that some of the least thought evilst symbols in the world might mean differently. the swastika~in toher words if u turn the swastica sideways u get nothing other than a buddist symbol and after that, of course, a religous symbol. the pentacle~turned into a devil worship sign but also it is a symbol for the balance of female and males, symbolizing, the divine porportion if u add all the sides and points of the star together they will live up to the divine porportoin the devils "pitchfork"~gods from greek also carried them around, zeus, hercules, ect. u may think im getting all of this from the davinci code but im not i have done research, and i know people, im 12 here and i have figured out that symbols have different meanings

You, unlike many people, have at least started to research things out -- good for you! Keep it up!
Now, you're correct that symbols have different meanings, this is true. But you have to look at cartain things. Like the swastica, even though it was an Indian symbol - people will always remember what the Natzis turned it into by their evil.
And the pentacle, same thing, people are going to remember what Satanists did with it than anyone else no matter how peaceful the intent.
Knowledge like this is know by many people, sorry to say it's nothing new. But I have to say you did good by researching it out.

What's your question?
Zeus didn't carry around a pitchfork, Poseidon carried around a trident. (which looks like a pitchfork) and of course Neptune did too. Yea, I miss the swastika, what a cool symbol till the Nazi's ruined it, now nobody gets to use it. Alas.
