The peace sign, also known as the nuclear disarmament symbol, was originally designed to represent the semaphore signals for the letters "N" and "D" standing for "Nuclear Disarmament." Over time, it has become a universal symbol for peace and non-violence.

What does a peace sign without the center line mean?

The peace sign with the middle line was originally used in satanic rituals where they broke the sides and made it into a broken cross to renounce Jesus. The original peace sign was an upside down Y, but later got changed to that of the symbol of satanists renouncing Jesus, not sure why. But either way, one needs to be careful of the symbol because the new one could be taken the wrong way. That and the symbol of the "new" peace sign has a demonic force behind it whether one knows it or not. I think it was just a trick by the devil in general because using that symbol , without knowing it, you are renouncing Jesus. The original is the true peace sign.


Who started the peace sign?

The peace sign (meaning the first and second fingers held up to form a V) is probably a continuation of the V symbol used during and after World War II in anticipation of, and after in celebration of the victory over the Axis powers in Europe. Victory in Europe meant peace for the world, therefore the continuation of the symbol to mean peace rather than victory.
