I feel that many religions use symbols to demonstrate a simplistic view of what their beliefs are.
All symbols have a history behind it and when different denominations started differentiating their beliefs from others the symbols became tainted and biased. I don't know the difference in all religions but I feel like I have a broad and general idea and when I see a symbol I feel like it represents that branch/denomination. Over time the symbols become more and more of something than what it was originally intended for.
Symbols meant more when it started than what they do today. And that is something that is open to interpretation whether its a bad thing or a good thing. I personally feel like its not good.
