As I understand it, the triquetra, the triple moon, is used in pagan and wiccan teaching. It represents the threefold nature of the Goddess: As maiden, mother, and crone. The triquetra symbolizes the three faces of the Goddess, balance of the Mind, Body, and Spirit. The circle signifies the ever-turning cycle of life, death and rebirth. The Triquetra is a fantastic way to represent the power of three and celebrate the divine feminine.

Why is Christianity Board using this as their logo? Is this really a Christian site?

I read that a very common representation of the symbol is with a circle that goes through the three interconnected loops of the triquetra. The circle emphasises the unity of the whole combination of Three Persons. It is also said to symbolise God's love around the Holy Trinity.

Christian use
The symbol has been used in Christian tradition as a sign of the Trinity (Father, Son and Holy Spirit), especially since the Celtic revival of the 19th century. When modern designers began to display the triquetra as a stand-alone design, it recalled the three-leafed shamrock which was similarly offered as a Trinity symbol by Saint Patrick [citation needed]. It has also been suggested that the triquetra has a similarity to the Christian Ιχθυς symbol. The triquetra has been used extensively on Christian sculpture, vestments, book arts and stained glass. It has been used on the title page and binding of some editions of the New King James Version [example needed].

The triqetra has been a Christian symbol for nearly 2000 years, although it's become much more popular recently.
It is derived from an older pagan design - after all, the number three is of special significance in many religions. That doesn't make it pagan now.

There is of course no law preventing modern pagans and wiccans from also using it to represent their own ideas. There's no 'copyright' on ancient symbols.

Unnecessary, IMO. No need to symbolize Christianity or affiliations. We are known by our fruit, not our symbols. As said here, anyone can use that symbol...and do.

All of the Apostles, Prophets, Disciples in the first century knew we are all on the same ship in that manner,
and that most people on earth never get in the ARK. ......

Do you mean the Ark of the Covenant or the ship/boat that Noah build that was also called the Ark.

Either would mean that you are very very old and as such a wonder for this world.

You should research the history of the cross and see if you change your perspective

Idolatry is idolatry is sin, with a tri-thing, or with a cross...
as it was with the serpent on a stick.... when given by God, whoever looked was healed,
but when they tried later to repeat, it was idolatry.

Then perhaps you should slow down on your posting and spend more time in researching your answers first, so that you can state the book, chapter and verse to provide a far better response rather than just expressing an opinion on what you believe.
