why's every religion gotta keep making kids for their statues when they need a crowd to lovingly stand around whatever they're worshiping?

The crusaders we afraid Muslims would try to convert them, heard their god was called bo-ham-hat or something, and invented a goat man to practice "pretending to worship" to avoid converting. Like slenderman, their pretend bs scared them and some started actually worshiping slenderman. I mean goat man. So if you're going to be evil at least get it right.

Some more fun is coming out of this. In Orange County, Florida, the school district decided to allow christian groups to pass out religious materials. They originally wanted to prohibit other groups from distributing materials, but that got shot down by a judge who pointed out that it would be a pretty clear and damning violation of the First Amendment to do so. So the district relented and decided to allow other religious groups to pass out stuff, I guess assuming that none of them were close by or willing to take the time to pass out stuff. The Satanic Temple made this book for this very purpose. Now all the kids in Orange County, Florida will be getting their very own Satanic Coloring book. I wonder what the parents will do. Link to one story.

by calling themselves a religion they get permission to do the same things any other religion, including christianity, can do. this includes putting statues glorifying their deity on public property with other religious monuments and handing out printed materials to children. if you make a law prohibiting the satanic temple from doing these things you're also making a law preventing any church from doing that thing.

I'm assuming these folks don't actually believe in the existence of the necronomicon, which kind of raises some questions about what they do believe so I wikipediad it and it's kind of cute quote:The Satanic Temple, based in New York, represents a variety of Satanism that uses the literary Satan as a mythological foundation for a non-supernatural religion,[45] which it believes can be used to construct a cultural narrative that can usefully contextualize life experiences and promote pragmatic skepticism, rational reciprocity, personal autonomy, and curiosity.

As far as I can tell this isn't real satanism™ they talk about the Necronomicon which is a fictional book that Laveyan satanists don't even pretend exists.

I unironically love The Satanic Temple. Church of Satan is an objectivist rear end in a top hat religion laced with mysticism and majycks. The Satanic Temple is a rational atheist club trolling bigots of all religions, including satanists.

After having two same-sex couples (one male, one female) engage in homoerotic activity at the grave site, we declared Fred Phelps’s mother a post-mortem homosexual conversion. At the time, I predicted that Fred hadn’t too much longer till he would pass, and I stated –- in a direct tweet to the WBC -– that I would be presiding over Fred’s own Pink Mass before too long. As I have made a promise to a dying man, I fully intend to do my very best to see it through, and the pomp and circumstance of this Pink Mass will surely far, far exceed that of the original event in Meridian, Mississippi. IIRC the authorities in Missississippi tried and failed to find a crime to charge them with. The only people who take the satan bit seriously are christians, and it's hilarious. They do all this as "The Satanic Temple" to try to take advantage of the blank check for ridiculous expression (and presumably tax exemption) that christianity enjoys in america poverty goat fucked around with this message at 08:14 on Sep 17, 2014 |

This rules. Now I want a pink mass when I die. D'ya think homoerotic activity in the vicinity of my ashes would work just as well? Because I don't plan on going in the dirt.
