Equal Access Act of 1984 prevents schools from blocking school clubs based on the content of the club philosophy and religion Fun fact 1/2
PlaceHolderTitle
It was passed by Conservative Christian congress to allow bible study in schools, it has since been used to allow Gay-Straight Alliances

Thank God for the Church of Satan.

Someone else should go right behind him, Judaism club, Muslim club, Sikh club...

I'd love to see the mentalist Christian lot protest against that last one.

I would join the After School Satsn Club just to have it listed on my yearbook page.

Thank god for the Satanic Temple folks, doing god's work
Sheldonian
Love the satanic temple, they're fighting the good fight against fundamentalists
SteveMND
The Satanic Temple, out there doing God's work!
BastofBelial
Ave! This is why I give them my money.
WitchCityHound
We have "kids for Satan" to compete with boys and girls club. Plus the HQ of the temple is here.
RideTheStimutacs
Of *course* the Satan guy has a name like Lucien Greaves.
dirrrtypiratehookerrr
Great example of how its more impactful to fight fire w fire instead of simply talking reason or being neutral. Apathy is not a virtue.
Kazeroth
I support your great work, Satan!

I want to be in the Satan club and who TF is letting Christian clubs exist at public school?
Haemaelaeinen
Why not? If kids don't have to join the club, what is wrong with having a Christian club? Or any religion? Very inclusive from you mate...
Holzter
As a resident of this part of NC, everyone is either a Christian or secretly non-religious
604kevin
We had a Christian club at our school. It's a good place for fellowship and to study the Bible.
bripi
He and TST are not wrong; you **cannot** have a christian-themed afterschool club without allowing the opposite to occur, on federal grounds
bripi
***LOVE***what he and the cohort are doing to fight the separation of "church" and state, IN THE GODDAMNED CONSTITUTION, but ppl forget.
FatPikachuIsBestPikachu
"Erode the constitutional separation of church and state" they say as they defend their Christian clubs.
AawesomeAardvaark
Read it again
SwaghettiYologneseWithMemeballs
I think that part was referring TO the Christian clubs.

This, I like this.

Lol I'm formerly from NC, they will really not like this. Hahaha I'd almost go back to watch this
RuricOrhlandis
In SC, know that will go over like a fart in a elevator
HelpfulCorn
They held a prayer rally outside earlier this week. I'm local
Holzter
I'm from Rockingham county. Live in Boone now but my family is based in RoCo.
scottEkarate
I wish they'd come to my kid's school district. They have those clubs after school. They advertise in the halls with Christian imagery
7Rhymes
Reach out to them, see what you can do to bring Satanism to our children.
Ayecantread
This is perfect, a polite rebuttal to the bold faced disregard for the law christians continually flaunt.
enderthedefender
It's not polite. They name themselves after the embodiment of evil in a religion purely out of spiteful mockery.
persianwrangler
They are pointing out that christians are constantly blatantly breaking separation of church and state laws. Christians are evil.
ucandcantunc
Many Christains believe they are in a war, and they are. The rest of us better wale up to that fact.
q2grapple
The war against themselves? I hope they win
Ironferrox
It’s a war against science facts, reason intellectualism and the constitutions separation of church and state make no mistake evangelicals
Ironferrox
Are waging a form of@spiritual warfare against the very constitution in order to indoctrinate children into the most closed mindset aspects
Ironferrox
Of their religion, it is a holy war to them and those of us who believe in separation of church and state better wake up and wage war
gottakeepgoing
For a second here I thought this was an update on the Pennsylvania event but this is in NC. Pennsylvania needs to let the club happen still.
StarscreamAndHutch
But jesus!/s
pookieeatworld
It's always interesting to me how much hatred and violence is carried out in Jesus' name.
u2braindead
I feel like this is true of both Christian and Muslim (and maybe others?) institution for over a millennia
StarscreamAndHutch
Have to use fear to add to the cult collective. Evidence based people wont join just because.
nclu
I would have joined this so much as a kid
travisflagg61411
Bold-faced or bald-faced? I've often wondered ..

I love the church of Satan. They spread love and acceptance. Not like those hateful, bigoted christians.

Satanic temple. Fuck church of satan
Acoreus
Yeah, having them mixed up has been awkward.
Natdictit
Im a member of one and I get the name wrong half the time
SomeDetroitGuy
This The Satanic Temple. The Church of Satan are hateful, bigoted misogynistic libertarians who believe in Magick.
NomadGray
I love that theyre doing what christians are supposed to... to spite the christians. And its working oh so well
Fuckimgurcunts
Satanic Temple you mean
wandergirl
As a Christian- they're being way better christians than a lot of folks I know.
SonOfChicken
Sounds like something a cultist would say.. /s ?
Sankrew
Sounds like something an ignoramus would say. The satanic temple has very few members (if any) who actually think Satan is real.
Sankrew
The vast majority of their platform is people who have become disenfranchised with Christianity, it's all doubting Christians and Athiests.
GreasyFartKnocker
Way to miss the sarcasm
SonOfChicken
Yeah but I don't mind. That guy wanted to say his position and I'm all for it
AsUpSoBelow
Temple! Church of Satan is something else entirely :)
RandomlyAppointedNSAAgent
Satanic temple: political activisits. Church of satan: people who read a book by some guy and often do shitty things about it.
amk1031
Temple of satan or satanic temple?
briham86
smax410
Nah. Church of satan are religious bigots. The satanic temple is really a group of political activists advocating the establishment clause.
briham86
I know, it’s just the similarities of the names and the confusion always reminds me of that gag from Life of Brian.

No. It doesn't spell that at all, silly.

I've worked I.T. Our server jockeys had little rituals to make sure code compiled, or new servers integrated. This isn't *that* far off...

Interestingly, also already called satan club in some circles.

They can ban evolution and sex education but not Satan.

Thanks for the info. I will have forgotten it in ten minutes, but thanks anyway.
AtlasMorrow
Physical headquarters is gorgeous
u2braindead
Thanks for the quick reference... I wouldn't mind if the symbol for TST was a little less scary tho
KellyCrazyCatLadyinTraining
I find it comforting, TBH. I also find realistic drawings of human anatomy comforting, but that’s just because my family is medical.

Hey no way actual information on imgur. You are the commenting 1%!
klomb8888
Thank you I did not know this
jennym123
"Just Ayn Rand's philosophy with ceremony & ritual added" -Founder. Wow, that comment is a bit on the nose.
RideTheStimutacs
L. Ron Hubbard did the same thing with Scientology. He outright said he completely made up a religion out of his sci-fi novels.
BC2k2
Wasn't he also quoted as "I'm just Ayn Rand with substance" ?

well this seems awfully biased.
SteveMND
Well, sort of intentionally. CoS was founded in the 60s as a new-age-ish counterculture movement for shock value, while TST was created >

< as more of a social/legal organization to challenge overreaching laws and religious encroachment in government, so the chart is more to >

You can actually read it? It’s too blurry on my phone

There are way stinkier cheeses. If you like them are you even gayer? Asking for Limburger loving friend

I think that's literally what I looked like reading through this
YeOldeImgurian
I feel the Satanic Temple's box for that one shouldn't be "X" but "What? No."

yea, that's some oddly specific trait.
