Symbolism

1 documented theory filed under this subject.

The Peace Symbol as Anti-ChristianA cultural-symbol theory claiming that the modern peace sign was not an anti-nuclear design but a disguised anti-Christian emblem: a broken cross, a “crow’s foot,” or a symbol of despair later adopted by occult and countercultural forces. The theory became common in parts of the 1960s backlash against antiwar and youth movements, especially among religious critics who saw the symbol as a hidden attack on Christian civilization.Updated Apr 20, 2026
