It is the called "Eye of Ra" which is considered satanic.
You sound like one of my old coworkers who would swear up and down the Proctor and Gamble symbol was a sure sign they were devil worshippers, no matter what we showed her to debunk that old chestnut of an urban legend.
The Eye of Horus and the Eye of Ra were symbols of the ancient Egyptian religion that had to do with royal power and protection. It was referred to as the Wadjet, one of the earliest Egyptian deities. The Wadjet was a sun deity who saw all, thus the unblinking eye.
There's nothing inherently Satanic about it, unless one has the misguided and small-minded idea that all non-Christian symbology is inherently evil.
There's also no sign at all that Time Warner's symbol has anything to do at all with ancient Egyptian sun gods, "Satanists" or anything else beyond the idea that their marketing firm thought it was a nice abstract symbol.

That page was hysterical! Ignorance and gullibility, in an easy to view format, full of skewed facts and outright fallacies.
I love conspiracy theorists. It's so much fun to debunk them with just a little bit of knowledge of history, marketing and basic sociology.
Thanks for the morning laugh!
They use to talk about this when I was a little kid at church , about the New World Order.There coming for us Eleanor, run for the border. We can hide there for awhile.LOL!
There was one video which talks about intelligent reptiles taking over.Wow! Makes the world we live in even more exciting.I guess there is nowhere to hide. Do you really think we were meant to be alone on this lil planet forever?
I'm a very sane person that has seen things.I have photos that I have taken with my cell phone that reveals hidden alien like faces.I have many , but you have to enlarge the pics on your comp and then you can see them.I'ts like they hide their faces in the shadows of pics.I think this cell phone camera technology pics up some other demension.Think about it, why is it that the last 100 years are so advanced compared the last 1000 years.They brought this technology to us.Space is never ending and so are the possibilties.This earth is to amazing for it just to be us, too live the simple lives we lead.
.....but I'm not sure I like it. I have the whole works, cable TV, DSL, and Digital Phone. At first it was a good deal with the intro offers, but I've had too many glitches that irritate me to no end. I do like paying one bill however, but it's a whopper!
BUT...OTH....SBC (now ATT) was not any better and worse with customer service. I can't even write about it with getting angry.
I suppose it's a lesser of two evils? Or three if you opt for a dish?
Any thoughts or suggestions? (or is this topic ok for discussion?)
after 2 years with "go for 3", i'm switching to att for internet and phone and am ditching cable altogether. it started out at a reasonable $98 + tax/mo, but has now ballooned to $140/mo with taxes. i'm just tired of being taken advantage of and will do without as long as i can. unfortunately, grande does not serve where i live nor can i get dish since i live in an apt.
Does roadrunner cost 45/mo in Austin? I pay Time Warner only 29 per month.
you must have just started with time warner. wiat til you've been with them for a while. they'll ratchet your rates slowly ever so often until you don't recognize the bill anymore, akin to putting a frog in some water that slowly gets to a boil. not that i've done that, but i understand that the frog stays in the water rather than jumps out of the mess.
