-Caveat Lector- Jamie: > The picture displayed here showing the "thing" with the sword piercing the >dove.... Look at the sword carefully... It's a shriners sword. To be specific, it's the symbol of the Hassan Order (shrine) of Freemasonry. If anyone is interested, there is an excellent book on Freemasonry and its symbols called Born In Blood and makes an excellent reference. > This sword >is a rather common symbol within the Mason community. What do you all >think? I think that even though (as someone has previously suggested) artwork may be interpreted to mean anything the observer wishes, there is an over-all pattern or statement being made by the artwork and by the artists. The statement is a clear portrayal of domination of the masses. The "rainbow" of humanity is clearly subservient to some sort of esoteric elite--via a "Novus Ordo Seclorum." Who the elite may be is another question entirely, but well within the range of an educated guess. As for the statement itself, none of this should be news to anyone. The Freemasons have been engaged in the formation of this type of "order" for almost 900 years. It is allegorically represented in the building of the "temple." Further, as any Mason will tell you, Freemasonry is a philosophy which encompasses many different religions (Pantheism). Certainly satanism would be no exception.
