They are both Christian sects. They both believe in Jesus, just Satanist oppose to Jesus while Christians worship Jesus.
P.S. Try to think sometimes, not everything that pastor says is true (especially about sex with schoolchildren, now pastors have open gates to any school! )

Even the self described Satanists have different core values from what I have been told.

One group; the Church of Satan (I believe that is the name) has a lot in common with conservative 'Christian' groups i.e. sobriety, clean living, etc. Just that their main deity is the so-called Devil---------not God/Jesus.

Others are truly evil.

Big difference, since Baptism is a ritual act by the Christian Church ... I think you mean Baptists.

I prefer Wiccan myself

I think we went into details. Fact is that now you can create religious class "after school" in a school building. It could be any religion (Christians including Baptists, Satanists, Mormons, Catholics; Islam including Shiite/Sunni; Jews; Buddhists ) or Atheism.
Hopefully they will do competitions like prove/disprove Genesis or God Set vs God Jesus by using books from school library. Some kids could be very smart if the have a scientific game to play..

I actually don't think this law means schools have to allow the use of school classrooms after school for religious study by students, or that they will.
