No sweat, you’ve never heard of Perun [Перун], the Slavic god of defense. They didn’t have a god of war, that would have caused too much trouble. His symbol was what people generally call the Greek cross or plus sign. Most of his few temples were converted to Christian use.

I’m in favor of every god or goddess that doesn’t advocate parking on my lawn for services.

Ooops, spelling error, it should be COATLICUE, the Aztec the mother of all Gods. I guess I must brush up on my Aztec mythology before going around writing comments about them… can’t be good karma…

Welcome back, CD, and they are religious icons, so giving you any grief invokes the Federal laws. I can assure you that people don’t want to look too closely at the customs surrounding the fir tree on the winter solstice, or what it was decorated with to ensure the sun would return.

Huitzilopochtli, I have heard of, as one of the war gods and main god of the Aztec, as well as the hummingbird association [hummingbirds stop here on their way to and from Mexico], but I’m not familiar with Cuatlihuec. [I have an an archaeology company as an occasional client, and the principle investigators are Meso-American specialists.]

Steve, that is the great irony – you can’t be a Satanist unless you have embraced the Bible, because Satan is from the Bible. Although I will concede that “Christmas” trees and wreathes were “borrowed” from the Teutons and Celts, and are not actually Christian.

Karen, the worst case would be to prove it was a religious symbol – that would bring in the Feds.

As the Pres of our 700+ homeowner association…I’d want to get RID of member like that pres (and we can’t Fire our members….we are all homeowners who get elected by our respective neighborhoods.) Plus…If that were me being treated that way for putting up a decoration on my own property during the holiday season – I’d see a lawsuit to prevent them from infringing on MY rights as a homeowner.

There’s real irony here. “Satan” is a Christian construct. It’s absurd to claim that those of us in other religions would do anything to promote the aspect of Christianity many of us find most offensive.

But in this case, the “objectionable” object… yes, I’ve seen pictures… is a Christmas decoration with a peace theme. Does Kearns also propose to ban the singing of Christmas carols that contain the words “peace on Earth” within the subdivision?

There’s nothing political about peace; even GeeDubya claims to want it, and I hope he finds it soon. Maybe an early retirement to the Crawford ranch would help him.

That’s the one, Alice, the early socialist.

You don’t let them on TV, Jams, and they build sanctuaries in this country to be TV studios. I noticed you have ties to the CND, so you’re probably part of the conspiracy to prevent governments from blowing up the world.

The Peace symbol a sign of Satan??? What a bunnch of £$%^& %(%($ $$(%*^ idiots!

Thinking about what christ did to the money changers at the temple, I wonder what he would do to televangelists? Not that I get to see that sort of thing on tv here.. They are baned on British tv.

Oh you’re thinking of Mary’s boy. He was a good kid with a crazy theory about zero sum not being the best outcome for humanity.
