 OK, I'll admit that she did not specify originally wether she wanted an 
upright or averse pentagram, and whereas I do not agree that an averse 
pentagram symbolizes "evil" other that it signifies man at the mercy of 
the elements, YOUR post is completely out of order here. One must wonder 
how much effort you put into looking for people deserving of your "award".
You *obviously* know nothing about the subject of pentagrams and what 
they might mean to other people. True enough it wasn't called for, for 
her to take offense and I am not defending that, but neither was your 
petty post called for either. Let's just take this one step further and 
assume that my flame of your flame of a flame is equally uncalled for.
So what! It's fun to speak our minds... So let's just take it as read 
that we are all going to have these differences of opinion and *try* to 
get along... Cos no ONE is more right or wrong than anyone else, just 
different.

To you I give my "Lame Flame" of the week award. Enjoy! Tell all your 
friends!

BTW- To the fine person who flipped the averse pentagram, EXCELLENT thinking!
The net needs more problem solving ability like this... *grin*
