I think that the Believe symbol is ingenious.  I think it shows that no matter what religion you are, you can be united as one with everybody else.

I think it says that all religions can come together as one.

Looking through Dan Donegan Interviews I found this:
Quote
I noticed that a number of different religions are represented in the symbol that is one the cover of Believe.  What is the significance of the symbol?

We’re not a religious band.  It is more of a spiritual symbol.  We wanted to take the four religious symbols and intertwine them and mesh them together to symbolize unity.  It’s more about a belief in one.  This album is very positive and that is the message that we were trying to send this time.
 

Obviously the symbol on the cover correlates with the album’s title.


Yeah.  It’s about a belief in yourself – a belief in humanity.  We wanted something that would shed a little bit of light into such a dark world.  A lot of the messages on this album are done in a positive way to try to instill a little bit of hope.

it seems like a lot of their songs have a theme somewhat like that.

Well, David says exactly what each symbol represents, symbols for 5 major religions including paganism, all coming together in one symbol. pretty cool

Its funny my mom when she first saw it. She thought it was the sign of the devil  Lol

Since the symbol is made up of different religions. I believe its the unity of Disturbed's fans. That no matter what your race or religion. That we all unit as one when it comes to Disturbed. Its the unity of the fans religions all stuck together. To show that we are one.

I don't know lol thats what i think. Grin

Yah it was like 4 years ago when my mother saw it. And like ever since then I was afraid to buy the Believe album. But i finally bought it. And I was shocked when my mother didnt say any thing about it.  Cheesy

The only thing i dont like. Is how they never filtered out Indestructible which had a lot of bad words. Where as Believe only had one song with a bad word and they filter it. I was pissed when I found out it was the edited version. lol But I didnt see an unedited version. eh oh well  Lol
