Dear List,
  Does anyone know the reason why some cultures and
religions depict stars as having five points or six
points? And why is the five-pointed pentagram
considered as an demonic or satan worship symbol by
Christians?
  Are there other culturally historic versions of
stars? Thanks in advance. Dirk Ross..Tokyo
