Look in the mirror- touch your forhead, your chest, shoulder to shoudler- you just made and upside-down cross! This is very common amoungst satanic practice as it is a sign of rebellion against Jesus Christ. Kinda splitting the purpose of Jesus Christ with a born sinner like His mother- Mary.
6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
John 14:6 (KJV)
No man! Jesus is the only way. The broad teachings of the catholic church confuses many into wicked faiths, and that's sad.
13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: 14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
to beware of false prophets
15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Matt 7:13-15 (KJV)
Straight is the gate...

The cross is a symbol. It's a false idol, and more to the point it was used as an instrument of torture and death. Why any belief is so fixated on punishment and death is beyond my comprehension. Whether you have it the right way up or not, the greasy wog who devised it is laughing in his grave.

We do not make the sign of an upside down cross. It's head, heart and shoulders...father, son and holy spirit.
I'm sorry you have been so misguided. The best thing to do is research the faith of the Church in order to understand the "why" behind much of what we do.
I'm a convert from Protestantism to Catholicism and I can tell you that what I "thought" Catholics did and what I've come to understand about the practices of the faith are miles apart. The Catholic church does nothing unbiblical. It never goes against the scriptures. Everything we do isn't specifically in the scripture but has been or become a part of faith through reason, the teachings of Christ, tradition and biblical research and understanding.

A St. Peter's Cross is an inverted Latin cross.
The origin of this symbol comes from belief that St. Peter was crucified upside down, as he felt he was unworthy to be crucified in the same manner that Christ died (upright).
An inverted cross has been the symbol of the Popes ever since.
Just because a few crazy Satanists have recently tried to steal Saint Peter's symbol does not mean we have to give it up.
With love in Christ.

there's a especially sturdy concept that as quickly as any religious image is grew to become the different way up or reversed in some way that it shows an opposite of what the religion stands for. This has been used by those attempting to insurrection against society for an extremely long term and in actuality relatively potential little or no. Regretfully the concept that it potential some thing is bolstered by those interior the specific religions via fact they generally make a large deal out of it. for people who relatively comprehend, there are symbols that have authentic which potential relating to anti-religions and a uncommon few carry the ideals needed and the certainty required to surely placed on them.

How do you figure?
Looks like a right side up cross to me!
Besides- did you know that St. Peter was crucified UPSIDE DOWN? Because he did not feel he deserved to die as Jesus did!

Yes. And be careful where this road takes you.
Do you really want to know the truth?
Who really started christianity. It certainly wasn't Jesus or the apostles?
See:

The funny thing is that they warn fearful followers every Mass-"The devil is the great deceiver". Indeed. But what greater deception than for wolves ot exist for two thousand years in sheeps clothing?
The world has burned for their deception. Yet, even now few understand what it is they worship in Catholic churches.
Who is Amen? Why is the birth of Jesus celebrated on the premier festiva date (25th december) for the Roman satanic god of sacrifice (Saturnia)?

You are right about one thing False Prophets come in many shapes and sizes and I bet there is a few of them at the brainwashing money making Christian conventions in fact Christ words were "you have turned my fathers house into a den thieves" I wonder if this go through thier heads while they are fleecing the people of their 10% to be a member.
Also weren't the KKK Christan's who used the cross for their own agenda now they were satanic.

It's called an "inverted cross". It commemorates Saint Peter's crucifixion; at which he requested the cross be inverted because he did not feel worthy of dying in the same manner as Jesus.

The upside down cross is used mostly in Europe. It is Saint Peters cross. It is said that saint Peter was crucified upside down. The Satanist use it to defy Christ.

I so admire the restraint of Debra under provocation.
I'm not a Catholic but I wish Christians would stop their ignorant judgment of those of other denominations they know nothing of.
