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.

Why not? It's an officially recognized religion... or are YOU the ultimate determiner of what religion is acceptable and what is not?

Why?

Their founder was God's chosen, final Prophet and he had direct conversations with God.

Surely an intelligent man of the 21st century would look into a claim such as this, to see whether it is true.

After all, just look at how many converts there ARE the world over!!!
