Neither are evil - in fact, ancient greeks such as the Pythagoreans used it as a religious symbol and so did the early Christians (5 points to represent the 5 wounds Jesus sustained on the cross). Today, some neopagans use this symbol as a mark of faith. If it is your view that people who don't worship Christ, then you may think one or both are evil, but I believe you are mistaken.

Neither symbol is evil just as a triangle isn't evil, a circle isn't evil, etc...

A pentagram is usually just a pentagram, no matter which way it is turned...There are some folks who think that it means devil worshiping by having the top point down...To a pagan it is just a pentagram and you will find it means know harm.. Now the pentagram has been around for ever and ever while Satanism has only been around for under 2000 yrs. To truly know ask the wearer what it means to him... Hope this helps. No no no no no there are some things right here but there is also some wrong. Truth: The inverted Pentagram IS a Satanic symbol Satanism is one of the first religions it dates back to Ancient Egypt. if you didnt know their religion is in fact Satanism. True Satanism. Not that blood scarifying evil crap. Its strictly spiritual. Lastly the correct way for the pentagram to be facing is downward because the energy from the pentagram is going back into the earth to replenish her instead of shooting up into space where it goes nowhere.
