Orphaned Land
I already wrote in this blog a few times about attempts to deal with uniting the main monotheistic religions. It is the most obvious solution for those who preach for stopping wars, because one of the main reasons wars occur is the friction between these religions. What is worth paying attention is that the Magen David finds its way to these attempts. E.g.
Orphaned Land is a Progressive metal band from Israel whose music contains Middle-Eastern influences. Their album "Mabul" tells the Story of the Three Sons of Seven (one son for each monotheistic religion) who try to warn humanity of a coming flood as punishment for their sins. Eventually they fail since the people refuse to listen to them and the flood comes to be.
The first son bore a Star of David upon his crest.
