Until recently, the pentagram was a Christian symbol.
The five points of the pentagram represented the five wounds of Christ on the Cross.
Not quite sure how it got transformed; I speculate because the symbol of Christ was used to for "protection" --- and those who most needed protection were those who dabbled in things they ought not have --- it got a bad rap.

Second, although I completely and utterly disagree with his religion, this man earned the right to have whatever religion he wants on his headstone.
