Peace Sign 1/18/11

In the 1960’s the Peace symbol head its impact during the Vietnam War. The three pronged shape and circle for an antiwar movement.  The Peace sign can bring both a positive and negative implications.  The downward prong meant death while the positive side meant life and fertility.  After seeing the peace symbol I immediately thought of the Mercedes car logo. Being somewhat similar in shape I find both symbols to be striking and significant.  Then I thought of sign language version of Peace. Then I think of Christ's hands as they were nailed to the cross. I think that (and I don't to mean to be full on religious) but dying for our sins was a meaningful way to bring peace towards man.
