Using her logic, The Church of Satan should be allowed as well to come into The House and offer prayers to the Devil as well and perhaps after that, the Church of Homer Simpson.

And there will be some, even on this thread, like Illbay, who think that would be perfectly okay.

I don't think that would be okay. It would not be appropriate to ask the Church of Satan to offer a prayer, nor would it be appropriate to have a Santeria priest make an animal sacrifice. Yes, there are limits, but those limits have been addressed ad nauseum in our jurisprudence.

A Muslim cleric is a far cry from a Satanist, no matter what some of you may think. I have ZERO consideration for Islam as a religion. But I have great consideration for the U.S. Constitution. Too bad these elected officials didn't.
