If your talking about in the rush letters, you will see that is
simply a paranoid coincidence, because the dice numbers are going
down (6,5,4,3,2)
Don't you think that if Rush was satanic, they'd sing more "Worship
The Devil" songs? I have three albums and have heard none.
And anyway, if you thought they were satanic, how would you know so
much about the album covers ;) ?

As a Christian who adores listening to Rush because it's good heavy

women, or push dope (well, there is 'A Passage to Bangkok', and some

Good flambait fool. Methinks you need to know the difference between the

refer to. I guess this country was founded by satanists--- look at our flag.

If you're not for Christ, then you are against him. That would apply to
any form of music. Let's see... if you take the number of letters in
Mozart's name and multiply that number [6] by 111 (one "1" for each
member of Rush) you get 666! All three members of Rush are Mozart
reincarnated as the Anti-christ! Wow. I bet you didn't know that.

This has got to be one of the stupidest messages I've ever seen. At least most
of the Moral Majority freaks have a clue as to what they're assaulting before
they assault it. Ask anyone here what the "Spirit of Radio" is about. Seems
like a dedication to a Canadian radio station comes to mind. As far as the
"Satanic" symbol goes, that comes from 2112, which if you knew how to read
musical lyrics, describes a world in which the religious jerks like yourself
decide what you can think and feel (which is I'm what you want anyway).
Ididn't know it was devil-worshipping to speak your own mind. I'd rather be
dead than let anyone (including God) tell me how to live my life. My kids are
happy, my wife's happy, end of story.

Shouldn't that read "Keeper of Souls"??? Show me one Satanic message in
Rush...BTW, get off this Satanic symbolism crap I've been reading here lately.
Do you have any idea why Rush used that symbol or why the man going through it
was scared to? Why don't you go back to your Christian school that forces
its beliefs on everyone and leave us poor heathens alone.

Umm first off...education is important in order to write a message like
this...the 5 pointed star is the pentacle and the pentac;e is the symbol
of Wicca (witchcraft) ...which has often been confused with Satanic
worship cause in the early middle ages christian beliefs saw wicca as
decvil worship where it really wasnt. So thats first. Second..try to
LISTEN to the music and not try to interpret what is on the album cover.

Did Satan himself tell you this was his symbol? When I was in a
parochial grade school, the teachers used to put gold stars on good
papers. I never realized this was Satanic. (And some of the stars
were even upside-down!)
>>They use it on all of their albums.
Oh, really? I must be blind, because I don't find it on most of
them!
>>They have one album with levitating brains

I remember a grade-b science-fiction movie called "The Brain From
The Planet Arous" which had levitating brains in it, too. So what??
Next, I suppose you'd like us to believe that Dumbo was a Satanic
movie, because only Satan could make an elephant fly!
>>On their album "Roll the Bones," several 666 configurations can

Yes, and also several configurations of every other number between 1
and 6. What would you expect to see in a picture of dozens of dice?
Configurations of 987, maybe?
>>One of their songs is called "The Spirit of [the] Radio." I bet they
>>know a lot about the spirits of radio."
Well, if this was the middle ages, and someone showed me a radio,
I'll admit I might find it a bit intimidating. But the physics of radio is a well
understood phenomemon, and I doubt that even the most
ultra-conservative preacher would suggest that Satan has anything to
do with it. Besides, the word "spirit" has more than one meaning,
and if you took the time to listen to the words of this song, you'd
realize that it has nothing to do with spirits of the supernatural
kind.
>>It's not too late to save yourselves. Reject Satan. Embrace the Lord. It's
>>your only hope.
I think the Lord expects you to use the marvelous brain He gave you
to think for yourself, and separate what is reasonable from what is
not. Nazi Germany is a good example of what happens to a society
when a large segment of the population fails to do so.

I'm Christian and I like RUSH's music. If you praise the lord, then
how come you know so much about satanic rituals. Someone else here said
that RUSH is one of the few groups that doesn't talk about se,
profanity, degrading women, or other terribly thing found in some rock
music in their songs. I'm not giving up RUSH because you say it's
satanic. I don't mean to be rude, but bugger off and leave your twisted
opinions about RUSH and Yak's pee to yourself!

To whomever made this original post, I don't know how many replies
you've received yet...but here's my best explanation of your
examples/arguments.
The star is usually seen with a naked male positioned to hold back the
symbol. Neil Peart explained once in an interview I read this is meant
to be the human spirit ("soul"?) holding back "evil". The human spirit
is depicted on the "levitating brains" (Hemispheres) album as the two
hemispheres of the mind, the left "logical" side (the businessman), and
the right "creative" side (the naked man). The story on the album is an
allegory of the dueling and harmonizing of the two sides. I have yet to
find the "666" images you speak of. The "spirit" in the song title is a
different definition altogether than the devine one you've used.
The point here is, there are so many other true enemies for you to
fight, why bother with Rush music? Don't waste your time fighting
windmills.
