Relevant considering all the race tensions in America right now: racism is a sin.

If there's one thing the Abrahamic religions aren't about it's tribalism.

Notice how the artist depicts the devil with one eye open and the other eye covered (by the fist of the BVM). For whatever reason (mostly) music celebrities have had a picture taken with them one eye covered. (There are some non-musician in this collage.)
What does it allude to? Is it that they sold to the devil to make it famous? Or are they willing spokes-persons for the illumati who control the entertainment industry?

The Eye of Horus

Quote:
You will notice how many celebrities highlight or hide one eye. Some even hide one eye with their hair, hand, a prop, or makeup. This is meant to represent The Eye of Horus. Basically, The Eye of Horus is an Egyptian symbol used to represent evil. If one eye is exalted (focused on or brought attention to), it means that the person or object is being viewed as a powerful god. Many even feel that they are worthy of worship. As is the case with Lady Gaga – she calls herself, “The Fame Monster”. Many celebrities want to be worshiped and idolized.
