here's some interesting food for thought...i love misunderstood symbols and the upside down cross is one of the most common...
the inverted cross is actually the personal trademark of Saint Peter, the first Pope, and one of the most revered figures in Catholic lore. When Peter was martyred by crucifixion he was said to have requested to be crucified upside down because he didn't feel worthy of dying the same way as Jesus.
As a result, many dyed-in-the-wool Catholics actually consider the inverted cross to be a more acceptable thing to attach to your tacky jewelry than a regular right-way-up one.
i just think symbol lore is neat...
just like, did you know the swastika is actually a sign of peace, and the four winds invented by the native americans?
yeah, way to screw that one up adolf... lol

Well, not really. Its the cross of St.Peter. It was felt that he was unfit to be crucified the same way as Jesus, so they turned his cross upside down.
The true symbol of Satanism ( to my knowledge) is something close to the sulfur symbol. In fact this is the one that most people would consider the true symbol. http://www.religioustolerance.org/brimstone.jpg
