It certainly is to the person who decided it is. But what about to the people who don't think it is? Who gets to decide -- the people who say it is or the people who say it isn't?
Consider another symbol frequently considered to be satanic in this day and age -- the inverted pentagram. A look back into the history of how the inverted pentagram was used, though, turns up a number of instances in which it was used in the architecture and design of many early Christian churches, among them:
Kaarma, Estonia, Church of Sts. Peter and Paul - 1261 AD Picture
Amiens, France, cathedral, north transept window Picture
Chartres, France, niche surrounding Madonna and Child statue Picture
St. Mary's church, Adderbury, Oxfordshire Picture
St. Bartholomew church, Ucero, Spain Picture
Orthodox Church, Olyphant, Pennsylvania - 2009 AD Picture
Which just goes to show you that symbols inherently mean nothing. Humans assign their meaning. The symbols, themselves, have no esoteric meaning or power beyond that which humans give them.

Amen!!! Apparently this must be said repeatedly for those who magically ascribe meaning to the symbols themselves . . . as if we could celebrate or worship something we do NOT INTEND to celebrate or worship!!!
Anti-Christian imagery The Cross of St. Peter has sometimes become associated with anti-religious imagery, as it is used to represent the opposite of Christianity by inverting its primary symbol, the Latin Cross. As a result, the symbol has become popular within anti-religion groups and among some extreme metal musicians, notably black metal groups as a symbol of Satanism.[1] It has appeared in films such as The Masque of the Red Death, Rosemary's Baby, Exorcist: The Beginning, The Exorcism of Emily Rose, Ghost, The Devil Inside, Paranormal Activity, Constantine, Devil, Phoonk, The Omen and The Conjuring among other things.
