A Harvard University student club is hosting a satanic black mass on May 12 to be staged by The Satanic Temple. The Cultural Studies Club characterizes the event as a "reenactment" to be "performed" by The Satanic Temple, but reportedly, the group has obtained and will be using a Consecrated Eucharistic Host - making the event as real as it gets as far as the Catholic Church is concerned.
The Black Mass is "a magical ceremony and inversion or parody of the Catholic Mass that was indulged in ostensibly for the purpose of mocking God and worshipping the devil; a rite that was said to involve human sacrifice as well as obscenity and blasphemy of horrific proportions."

What is a consecrated Eucharist host?
People who major in easy and useless majors like sociology, women's studies, queer theory, social justice, ecology, etc. have scads of time to dork around with activities like this.
They are very open these days because they have pretty much won the chance that this culture is ever going to be replaced or fixed is close to nil.
I will not shed a tear!
At the core of whatever passes for their beliefs, there seems to be an implicit faith in the value of a consecrated host. Their ritual disrespect would have no meaning at all if they didn’t hold some belief in the sanctity of what they were disparaging. It needn’t be said that this an insane position to hold; deep respect for something one is profaning.
Not as far as ive seen.

it appears to be “official” and I dont doubt that FEW if ANY serious students would attend
there is an inherent link between using the Mind that God Gave One....and .well...... Using the Mind That God Gave one...
I don’t know when liberal academia (but I repeat myself) decided en mass to declare war on Judea/Christian civilization. But there was such a day.
Are you sure that Satan is not already in charge at Harvard?
I’m guessing the sacrifice will be excerpted from the Harvard event.
Can’t find any virgins on campus.
I think tradition calls for the sacrifice of a woman untouched by man.
Which LUG is going to volunteer?
