True. Look what the Catholics (and others) do what it takes to minimize the competition. Look how they bastatrdized the meaning of the paganistic pentogram symbol in one of their little smear campaigns for dominance. In fact, look what they've done to the word "pagan" (the definition below sounds pretty evil, n'est-ce pas?).

Quote:
PENTAGRAM or PENTACLE A five-pointed star sometimes surrounded by a circle. It is often used to symbolize Earth and its properties—stability, material wealth, the body, and practical affairs. Each point represents an element, with the topmost one representing Spirit.

PAGAN A practitioner of an Earth Religion; from the Latin a country dweller. Also considered any religion that is not Christianity.
