So what is up with the name. Satanic Temple? Are they trying to make Satan a good guy? Hardly. Of course today the lefties see good as bad and bad as good. A sign we are in the last days.
Once again, well have to agree to disagree about them being the same. Still dont see where the Constitution says that they are the same.
I understand your point, but the Constitution also does not include a list of approved religions - precisely because doing so would violate the basic premise of freedom of religion. Satanism meets the widely accepted definition of a religion. I don't like it and I don't like the fact the an elementary school is hosting such a club, but I think banning Satanists but allowing Christian groups clearly violates the Constitution. Frankly, religious clubs of any sort shouldn't be sponsored by government institutions.
It is who is teaching those things. A pedophile or a murderer could also teach those things but I dont think anyone would want them teaching those things to their children.
My guess is that the kids are not being taught these things by republicans.

To take it to the extreme, should we allow a religion at a school that promotes but does not conduct baby sacrifices?
"The Satanic Temple does not believe in Satan, according to its website, nor will it attempt to convert children to Satanism.
Instead, the club will teach children about benevolence and empathy, critical thinking, problem solving, creative expression and personal sovereignty, according to a widely-circulated flyer shared on social media."
What do you NOT like?
I don't think you really know much about this org!
"The Satanic Temple, Not to be confused with Church of Satan
"The Satanic Temple has utilized satire, theatrical ploys, humor, and legal action in their public campaigns to "generate attention and prompt people to reevaluate fears and perceptions", and to "highlight religious hypocrisy and encroachment on religious freedom"
Typically some public schools teach little boys how to put on condemns, and you never complained.
MANY school kids, from elementary to high school were FORECD to watch algore's phony "global warming" movie, and you NEVER complained.
1 elementary school FORCED is kids to sing a song praising obama and you NEVER complained
I'd bet I could a LOT of things these schools "forced" the kids to do and you would NEVER complain.
BUT NOW, this!!!!!!!!
lol Any group who uses the symbols they are using is trolling or doesn't understand branding.
