Judge Orders PA District to Allow After School Satan Club to Meet on School Grounds

CNA Staff, May 4, 2023 / 16:30 pm A federal judge in Pennsylvania has ruled that The Satanic Temple must be allowed to hold its “After School Satan Club” in a public middle school in Pennsylvania’s Saucon Valley School District.

U.S. District Court Judge John Gallagher, sitting in Allentown, issued the preliminary injunction just days after The Satanic Temple held its second annual conference called “SatanCon” in Boston, which was heavily protested by Catholics.

The Satanic Temple, which, according to its website, denies the existence of God and Satan, is a political activist group known for protesting religious symbolism in public spaces and mocking Christianity by offering “unbaptism” and hosting “black masses.”

The school district, located in Northampton County, on Feb. 16 approved The Satanic Temple’s request to hold an After School Satan Club at its middle school. In response to a shooting threat that referenced the club, however, the district received dozens of emails from concerned parents and staff who wanted the approval withdrawn for safety reasons.

The real failure here is the parents, not the school administration.

>If this had only happened when I was in school.....
I would have attended just to see who’s ass I was going to kick that afternoon.<

This.

Ridicule is a great weapon. Use it like the left does.

Make it uncomfortable to attend this club. Examine its funding and make it widely public. Harass its sponsors and threaten protests and boycotts. Cause a real stink at the school board level over any teacher or staff member involved. You need not be factual....just emotional.

And no, its not unchristian to do it. It’s a rather biblical fight against evil.

Give it to them good and hard.

I think normal kids should go and speak out about Christ and the devil. Also nominate some normal kids to be officers and take it over. Use the left’s tactics against them. Then kick the satanists’ butts on the way home.

Can we create a club to worship these other 2 fallen angels.

Sure ... you could do that.

I recommend against it.
