I don't consider myself religious but I do think this is getting ridiculous and I hope that they do not allow this to be erected. Hopefully they just take down the 10 commandments monument and let that be the end of it. No monuments.
A pretty well researched summary of Baphomet:

Baphomet is an enigmatic, goat-headed figure found in several instance in the history of occultism. From the Knights Templar of the Middle-Ages and the Freemasons of the 19th century to modern currents of occultism, Baphomet never fails to create controversy.

Your consideration of him, then, is not accurate.
