so was this ever used to summon anything?
Or is it just the image of the satanic bible

Satanist here.
The Sigil of Baphomet, as refined by Anton LaVey, is not used to "summon" anything. Rather, we believe that one should ally oneself with dark gods and demons rather than attempt to control them. In doing so, we realize that these gods are not without, but within, and exist as teachers, guides and expressions of carnality.
Rather, the Sigil of Baphomet is used in ritual. It is placed above the altar. If one prefers, an inverted cross may be used instead, preferably made from silver. Anything but gold will do.

Yes, you can use the symbol of the CoS as a medium. The sigil of baphomet is normally inscribed with LvTHN, the eternal Void Worm through whom the marriage of Satan/Lilith is consecrated and through whom manifests the union of primordial energies. If you are venturing into esoteric Satanism, I highly suggest a left hand resource center of some sorts, such as the following links.

Isn't the inverted cross an extremely christian symbol? Petrus said he wasn't worthy to be crucified like Jesus, so it was turned upside down? This is my big problem with satanism, it's all just borrowed symbols.

The cross predates Christianity by many centuries and is actually derived from earlier pagan religions. The majority of religions essentially build upon reactive esoteric intermingling of alternating symbology.

Yes, that is correct. So is >>17176724
What matters in your use of symbols is your intentions and the emotions associated with said symbols.
