The heart symbol as we know it today originated in ancient Rome and was apparently meant to resemble a nutsack originally

Some ancient greek helmets were made to resemble the head of a phallus. I think it's pretty funny.

I have heard of this, apparently it is a new form of idolatry wherein the practitioner worships his own Penis, at least according to its detractors.
