Both of these are excellent power ups in The Binding of Isaac

Yep. St Peter was evidently crucified upside down because "Fuck this guy, we hate him even more than the last one!"
davecorona
Satanist use the inverted cross.For that reason, upside down or reverse.Just like the pentagram is inverted or upside down,like.Satanism is

Ok. Serious question. Why believe or worship a being that is well known as "the great deceiver"?
hoozyerdatty
cuz they're not actually worshiping said creature...only being deceived into thinking they worship him...?

Historically, this is correct, but much like language symbols can change meaning and that is definitely the case with an inverted cross.
alchemy5
That's the alchemy symbol for Brimstone...
stillnope
St. Peters cross is actually a symbol of faith. He was crucified upside down because he didn't think he was worthy of dying like jesus lol
mbr5
even the pope has the inverted cross on some chairs (thrones?)
ILoveTomHiddleston
The satanic cross is all over goth fashion, i think i have leggings with it on them, and probably a shit.
ILoveTomHiddleston
Haha shirt. Fuck.
CrocodileDunphy
Context dependent. In church setting, reference to Peter and how he died. In other contexts, inverted cross is often anti-Christian symbol
Medwards86
Same deal with the pentagram. It's a symbol of protection, not demon worship/summoning

Satan is the real hero, if god ever had any good intentions for humanity he/she is being prevented from doing so, presumably by the angels
clitoricalquestion
Didn't a Scooby Doo episode once say the one on the right was a symbol for "witch" ?
ixamxber
Also called The Leviathan Cross. The double cross represents balance, while the infinity symbol represents the universe
waitwuh
seeing how there's a whole bunch of writings about god purposefully trying to wipe those guys out i guess they might be considered satanic
FurryBallsFloppedMenacinglyOnTable
Infinity is also interpreted as one's infinite soul, with the double cross symbolising protection of that.
SnackOverflowError
That doesn't sound "satanic" at all
MinisterKai
Most Satanic symbols originally weren't. Satanists through history adopted anything the Churches censured as a symbol of their own.
mAliceGray
Oh, but it does. We, as Satanists, use the Leviathan Cross as a symbol quite a bit.
McJavi138
I think it's a case of it just looking visually appealing. In films, having a cross turn upside down by some unseen force is spooky.
greetingsimmatt
I know the Satanic cross cuz binding of Isaac. Anyone else?
RklBombs
Yes, hello friend.
IAmYourGodNow
Yeah my immediate thought was "Left is Lord of the Pit, right is Brimstone."
butler12
Ok weird question. Tv's Magnum PI wears a ring with the one on the right. Seen clearly on end credits. WTF was that about?
desdeqado
Cross of Lorraine, used by the nights templar, the 79th u.s. infantry division as well as French resistance fighters
FiftyShadesOfBroccoli
Doresn't the cross of Loraine lack the infinity symbol bit though? Afaik it's just a cross with two horizontal beams.
butler12
It's been a while since I saw the show but my memory tells me it had the symbol. I always wondered about it.
SwigSwagoon
Or uhhhhhh neither, that's the alchenical symbol for brimstone. In theory that's what hell is made of but I think the man himself isn't.
professionalpootalker
An upside down crucifix is a symbol of the devil, satanists probably started out drawing crucifixes but got lazy and just draw crosses now.
FiftyShadesOfBroccoli
Outside of Catholicism, it represents a rejection of Christianity and its dogma, but not necessarily Satanism. In the '80s,it was worn by...
FiftyShadesOfBroccoli
several youth subcultures (punks, goths, metalheads) as protest against the Christian establishment or simply to shock people.

kuemmel
Well, since the church of satan (in the US that is) use it, you can say that it is a satanic symbol. I mean, come on, the Latin cross ->
kuemmel
is a simple cross. The only thing that makes it Christian is the fact that it has been used since the year 400 and you gotta start somewhere
JohnCheshirsky
Yeah, sure, I completely agree, actually. I was just making a "unfunny joke" joke. Turns out, it really was unfunny :)
kuemmel
Might be me, humor is not my strength! ;) Merry Christmas (or a quiet week if you don't celebrate).

Oh dang, first time ever someone used this gif to me! I genuinely feel flattered, thanks :) Also... um... have a nice week too :)
TheGuyWhoBeatsHisMeat
The closest thing we Satanists have for a symbol is the baphomet.
ILoveTomHiddleston
So yoi practice that religion for real? Want to tell me stuff about it? I know i could google it but its mucj more interesting coming from u
Herosanoj
Satanists as far as I know understand Satanism not as a religion but as a philosophie. The cultish and religious ways are just the cliché(1)

people are often confronted with in movies and literature. In reality Satanism is about self-realization without anyone or anything (2)

Isn't that the alchemy symbol for brimstone?
doubleaxle
Yes, yes it is, I've watched FMA:B and played BoI, I am totally a qualified research scientist in this subject.
ravensourcious
Absolutely, also it's know as The Leviathan's Cross, not Satan's cross, although Satanists do use it but they just like fucking with (1/2)

And its also the alchemic symbol for sulfer.
mAliceGray

flyingmonsters
Yeah it was used in the 60s by one group of Satanists. The whole fire and brimstone. #edgy
SarahTheCuteVixen
Oddly enough brimstone is an old term for sulfur

It astounds me how many Christians don't know about St. Peter's cross being inverted or that it's a Christian thing to begin with.

Also saint peter was a rabbit. He don't give a fuck

Dude, Christians think Christmas is the day Christ was born.

Oh wait now I'm confused. The one on right was on ring.
Drzhivago138
It's often the the anti-Catholic "Christians" who would discount its use by the Roman church anyway.
butler12
Oh ok this answered my question
micotyro
Well, a lot of it comes from movies
FiftyShadesOfBroccoli
It used to be a Christian symbol, but it turned into a sign of protest against or disagreement with Christianity. Inverting a symbol is...
FiftyShadesOfBroccoli
often used to this end (e.g., inverting flags. Although in case of the US flag, that's officially a distress signal).
Lurch1911
Most that I know do know it, unfortunately it’s just been warped by so many people that many choose not to display it anymore
nipplepanties
Lots of evangelicals are very anti facts
JohnnyLawlessEsq
It's mostly catholic, and even most catholics don't know about it.
annfranksbhole
It's because of movies like the exorcist
36roentgen
Maybe because most Christians only day they are Christians because they like the idea of eternal life.
flyingmonsters
People do, however it is also satanic when flipped
FernandoRumdebum
I love it. It really speaks to the devotion of him to Jesus
Beelsebooob
Just wait until they see a St Andrew's cross then! (and then look at House Bolton, and wonder what's going on there)
tomyironmane
just be sure your safe search is on.
CoffeeyCore
I tried telling my younger brother the story behind the inverted cross. He looked it up and then still refused it.
RklBombs
Religious people are stubborn in that aspect loll
UltimaAvalon
No, people. People are stubborn in that aspect.
ForgotMyOtherAcct
Why would he refuse it? If he's religious, it doesn't contradict anything. If not, I don't get the issue.
CoffeeyCore
He's my brother. He got no other reason than being an underage retard
milad666
I mean, it use to be on the popes chair
tomyironmane
A less than subtle reminder that they are not worthy, perhaps...? To keep someone from getting a big head?
abrakadumbass
right? its like, the pope symbol. is it not anymore?
ForgotMyOtherAcct
Isn't it still?
milad666
I’m not sure after Francis changed chairs awhile back and I wasn’t invested enough to google.
tomyironmane
it was. he was going to be crucified, and he said he was unworthy to die the way his lord did, so they crucified him upside down.
tomyironmane
... which I have heard is an even worse way to die, those wacky Romans!
FoolishDomin
its strange, its like most of us Christians don't even read the bible. hmmm
BatmanAndCradleRobin
Virtually 99% of Christians know nothing about the religion and only believe it because their parents did.
fadedcharacter
Lol. Gotta love your statistics. Why I laugh?
ForgotMyOtherAcct
I'd guess more like a fifth or so know virtually.nothing, and a further 60% or so are very uncomfortable to the point of anger with the idea
ForgotMyOtherAcct
Of having their current idea of what the history of their religion is being challenged. The other fifth is pretty open to talking.
uauauauaua
it's maybe because most sane people are not interested of "Satan's cross" why anyway Satan would have a cross? Lol
FishstickPizza
Can I make up stats too? 99% of atheists know zero about other religions, outside of a website "debunking" something out of context.
stonebrood
people buy into religion based on convenience and then decide that their religion affirms whatever they already believe
kittyanya
They don’t realize half their holidays are stolen pagan ones and there’s no Satan in Paganism, either. “I’m Pagan.” “Satan worshipper!”
dietderpsy
The holidays were chosen to convert Pagans to Christianity
AlphaGrey
Just wondering which ones are pagan holidays? I know Christmas is one, I think it was Saturnalia
HisDudness
Yule Tide, also.
kittyanya
Easter, Halloween, and Christmas are all in Pagan roots. Halloween lately is discouraged by hardcore Christians and less celebrated by them.

What’s the significance of his cross?
SlightlyStoopidBear
I have learned something today, as a Christian. And I am willing to accept this change. I'm still a shitty Christian though.
JMensch
He didn't feel worthy of being crucified like Jesus so they inverted his cross. That's really it.
SomeGuyFromTheMostIsolatedishCityOnEarth
Classic Peter am I right?
CyborgScribe
Oh that Peter. What a guy.
Dartmuthia
And he was inverted on it
HisDudness
Peter was fucking metal as shit, dude.
mustachefleas
That almost sounds worse than a normal crucifixion
samsonguy920
Depends on your flavor. In a normal crucifixion your diaphragm is unable to work properly, making it harder for you to breathe. >
samsonguy920
> You slowly suffocate. Takes maybe a day, maybe two. The spear was a mercy.
2manyfavorites
I think that was the point
iGivePoorAdvice
Well yeah. He was crucified upside down. After being crucified you can live for days and your digestive system will work against gravity.

It astounds me how many "Satanists" don't know that it's a Christian thing to begin with
JessieJanson
if by "satanists" you mean the "religion". They are a sort of spoof religion that is 100% based on science and doing the right thing and 1/2
mustachefleas
I mean the people that actually "worship" Satan. The edgy edge lords
JessieJanson
Thinking about it, they dont even use the upside down cross, they use a pentagram. Still, im not sure the origins of a symbol are important
JessieJanson
being good people. The only ones who dont know this are christians who hear "satanist" and make up their own mind without doing one ounce2/3

of fact checking. It also goes to show how easily people form opinions while not caring to check the facts and damning others as a result.
RheaButt
To be fair half the intent of calling it satanism was to fuck with Christians
MinisterKai
Any Satanist who has actually read the book knows that almost all Satanic symbols are borrowed from anything Christians dislike, even the1/2
StonerCatJay
The upside down cross is a symbol of Satanism, it's just an actual depiction of Jesus on the cross, upside down, which is considered
StonerCatJay
2) disrespectful/blashpemous. The simple upside down cross symbol shown above, when used as a Satanic symbol, is meant to be a less detailed
StonerCatJay
3) version (just a cross instead of Jesus being on it), but it's still meant to represent Jesus's cross, not Peter's.
MinisterKai
2/2 inverted cross, which fell out of favor when people forgot what it was originally for.
khazaria
The book that was written pretty recently?
MinisterKai
Very recently in the grand scheme of religion, yeah. 1969. Still, widespread enough it's not hard to get a copy.

ArdentSlacker
um. Satan is a christian thing tho.

The Church of Satan do not believe in Satan, or God. They are Atheists who seek to get people to think things through for themselves.
nsjsnenrndns
Ok so why call themselves church of Satan?

It's to make a statement about Christian influence in our society and government.

Satan just means adverse in Hebrew so they’re just against church
