omg
my brother just tried to convince me that the band HIM is satanist because of their symbol, the heartagram (NOT pentagram)

and this is a peice from this wikipedia article:

Heartagram is the name of a trademarked symbol of HIM. It is a cross between a heart and an inverted pentagram. Ville Valo (lead singer of HIM) created the Heartagram around the age of 21. The heartagram has been falsely associated with satanism, so some believe HIM is satanic, which is false according to Valo. The heartagram symbolizes the contrast or perfect balance between life and death, love and hatred, darkness and light, good and evil, or even love and death together. Valo has said that "the heartagram stands for HIM as a band, as an entity, and for 'love metal' in general,".[2]

Many fans of the band have heartagram tattoos or tattoos of other HIM emblems (such as the single heart on Valo's right wrist). Fan-submitted photos of such tattoos decorated the lyric booklet for the limited edition of Dark Light.

Ville Valo has allowed his close friend, Jackass star, professional skateboarder Bam Margera share the license on the image and is accordingly entitled to use it for his promotional purposes, for example mostly all of his Adio shoes have the symbol. Because of that many people think it's Bam's logo, but even so that has been profitable for the band because it gives them a lot of publicity, and according to Ville in one of his interviews, more people know the band because of the symbol and Bam than because of their music.

and this would be a heartagram...

In other words Neil has no idea what he's talking about, so he should shut up.
