In ancient Greece the serpent represented life and healing, because it seemingly renewed its youth by shedding its skin. To say the Caduceus is the symbol of Satanism, just because a few modern kooks who call themselves Satanists have adopted it as their symbol, would be as crazy as saying the swastika is evil just because some Nazis adopted this ancient symbol of good fortune as their symbol.

The Caduceus is not the symbol of medicine. Wrong staff. The staff of Asclepius has one snake on it, not two. And it isn't Satanic.

Using Revelations to call a symbol that predates it "satanic"......lets think about that for a moment.

The caduceus predates satanism, it's been used as a symbol for medicine since ancient times.
This is like un-ironically believing the OK sign means "white power".

Because it's the same demented bullshit?
