The last time Satanic Ritual Abuse and other forms of perversion edged into the public awareness, the counter propaganda convinced me (sadlY) that it was all wildly taken out of context and Satanists don't really worship Satan etc. I feel like the BBC's recycling that tactic. "Oh you don't like Satanism? It's only because you're ignorant. It's not what you think - whatever you don't like, it's not that AT ALL."

New coinage when Democrats take the White House, Senate and House again, “In Satan We Trust”. The hatred they display makes one think of devil possession.

This goes to the heart of ignorance surrounding our civil rights in the First Amendment.

The establishment clause that begins our First Amendment to the Constitution is discussing Established religions in the United States.

That is NOT a church of Satan or any number of fake religious groups founded on purely reactionary grounds. This group makes no disagreement with the reality that they are simply anti Christian. That is not a religion.

The building out of the establishment clause to local communities means we should all ask if the religious group has an established historical connection to the community. If no, then you have no claim in the Establishment clause. The founders were really trying to protect religious churches as they were in the founding. Courts need to deny standing to these nonsense groups.

Satan church is fake. whatever weird name or derivatives they come up with and we don’t let groups fabricate identities on a host of other legal categories.

Religion is the method of worshiping God.

Lucifer, now a fallen angel, now called Satan, is a fallen angel, a created being.

Worship of a fallen angel is not worship of God, therefore is not necessarily protected by the 1st Amendment expressing Freedom of Religion.

Historically, the 1st Amendment addressed the issues of many different Christian denominations, which frequently differed only in how some Scriptures were interpreted, or from which direction a new believer might begin to continue their sanctification process.

Cults, nor the Occult are protected by the 1st Amendment, though those who reject God, will likely clamor to it for protection, seeking to hide as wolves in sheep’s clothing.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Of course these people have a political agenda. The real Satanists, full on sacrifice with black mass and human sacrifice/desecration type Satanists would probably keep a lower profile and laugh at these people in that they ultimately were futhering their agenda while completely ignorant. If they exist...

Eventually something connected with Satan Worship will be going to the Supreme Court. It may be someone getting fired after missing work due to attending a Black Mass UnHoly Day.
Something bizarre and loathsome like that.

A teacher who has all manner of Satan related posts on Instagram, being denied a promotion to work with chidren.
“I just didn’t understand why that disqualified me!”

“satanists” are white supremacists. Anton LaVey cited the same “white supremacist” text cited by a recent rampage killer. And several of the recent rampage killers were self-identified Satanists. Certainly not the first US rampage killers who sought out Christians to kill.

>> the Temple’s attempts to curtail what they see as the encroachment of Christianity on US life through its growing political influence.

They are decidedly anti-Christian. They are bigots and don’t seem to have a beef with Islamic theocracy in America or elsewhere in the world.

Hail Satan? directed by US film-maker Penny Lane, follows the Temple's attempts to curtail what they see as the encroachment of Christianity on US life through its growing political influence.

Apparently the satanists' grasp of U.S. history isn't very good.

Whenever someone brings up SRA, which is real, we are reminded of the “Satanic Panic” of the 1980’s, which was...?

Every Believer should read up on the McMartin preschool case. Not the version which says that “it was all made up”, but what the parents actually discovered after the authorities dropped any pretense of a full investigation.

As to the Satanic Temple? They’re just the “bronze plan” for Satanism. The enemies of Jesus Christ have no problem with lying and deception. One should keep that in mind as one reads any of the crap they put out for public consumption...

Abortion is the highest sacrament of the Satan worshipers

They have whole rituals about it and the murder of the birthed baby

As a metal fan, I find how so many people take everything involving "the devil" and "satan" at face value, believing everything and anything to do with it to be bad and evil.

Here's the guy that popularized the "devil horns" in metal, who passed in 2005 to stomach cancer.

We really don't need another group of harpies claiming that everything to do with rock and metal is evil and satanic.

Yeah, kind of off on a tangent, but it kinda aggravates me a bit.

Here's some humor with it.

I hate to break the news, but back when we began a concerted effort to drive Jesus Christ out of public schools, politics, entertainment, medicine and government, we created a vacuum. Nature abhors a vacuum.

Satan has filled the vacuum. With a vengeance.

Satan hates God. God loves man. Satan hates man.

Matt 12:43-45: When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none. Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished. Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation.

There is one point a lot of people miss, partly because they are o.k. with that. In America TODAY, it is Christians who are decrying their 1st Amendment rights being stomped, while at the same time, stomping on other folks’ 1st Amendment rights, because the other folks don’t do as they do. For example, it was in the 1970’s that witchcraft, yes i said witchcraft, was included in American military chaplains’ manuals. That may be news to some of you. Likewise, the re is a trumpish hat that states ‘make America saved again’. Fine, and dandy. Now, doing that, what are you going to do with all the American CITIZENS that refuse? What about THEIR 1st Amendment rights?
