the swastika
between the thread on the guy from Kula Shaker, and Prince Harry's unfortunate costume, the swastika has been quite present on this forum. some people said that despite the peacefull origin of the symbol, it's 20th century denotations will never be shaken.
then i read this on yahoo news, just wondered what people thought;
Hindus have launched a campaign to "reclaim" the swastika from its Nazi past and reinstate the 5,000-year-old emblem as a symbol of good luck. Children light lamps in the shape of a Swastika, on the eve of Hindu festival of Diwali, in the northern city of Chandigarh in this file photo. According to Hindu mythology, Swastika is the sign of prosperity.
can a 5000 year hertitage compete with a 70ish year one?
