I think the concept of finding a person's true motives or belief through reverse speech is ridiculous. Language is relative to a time period,
culture, ethnicity, region, etc. etc. etc. Dialects differ within the same language. "Boot" in my town means a type of shoe, but in England where my
friend's car was made it means the trunk of a car. And that's a simple one!
Some claim that musician's send "satanic subliminal messages" through their music, becuse if you play it backwards the incomprehensible jabber
sounds slightly like the word "devil." Seriously.
Similar to reverse speech is slowed speech. For example, on band was put on trial because the crazy soccer-moms (I use that merely as a cliche, no
offense to anyone here) who started up the Parental Advisory sticker law said that if you played their song extremely slow, there were Satanic
messages sent through the lyrics. Also, instead of the lyrics saying "a rose in her hair," they supposedly said "my bone in her hair." No lie.
People were sued for that.
Honestly, in my personal opinion, reverse speech is just as bad as the myth that the clouds in the lion king spell out "sex," ...it might even be as
bad as ...( about to make someone angry)...bible code.
All in good fun, friends.
