“The Satanic Temple display was permitted under Iowa law allowing any religious organization to hold a display inside the Capitol.”

Iowa has a Republican governor, a Republican House, and a Republican Senate.

They can change that law this week.

The Iowa governor is spineless. That display was reprehensible and OBSCENE. I would have thrown that Satanic garbage in the trash and said the good people of Iowa don’t want that and stated see you in court. Just like Islam, Satanism is not compatible with our Republic. The Bill of Rights is not a suicide pact.

Sure they can.
But it has to be all or none.

Freedom of religion, as with speech, means nothing if it doesn’t apply also to what you find abhorrent.
