Satanic Temple puts up display at Michigan Capital

quote:

---

Jex Blackmore said her group doesn't worship Satan but does promote individuality, compassion and views that differ from Christian and conservative beliefs.

In other words, she's an atheist putting up a phony Satanic display

Trolls

Ms. Blackmore likes and needs attention.

Satan is way cooler than God. Duh.

I think it's great. It clearly jars people to find that something other than a major abrahamic religion can occupy public space.

Now if we could just grow a set big enough to piss off the Muslims too, we'd be really rustling jimmies.

whole lotta butthurt in this thread

That snake looks like one of the monsters from Tremors. Now I want to watch that movie.

People really shouldn't give a shite about this. It's just some random persob excercising out harmless free speech and if there's attention whoring going on, then all the more reason to not give a shite about this.

Speaking as an agnostic diest by the way.

Here is something else for you to ponder on porkchop. Some scientist of old lived their entire lives from cradle to grave not knowing anything about microscopic life. To them, it didn't exist and that was fact. But it turned out it wasn't fact.
Then there were scientist who lived their whole lives thinking that if a man was sick and you extracted enough blood out of his body, he would get well again. Of course, many died during bloodlettings. To this scientist, this was a fact, but it wasn't.
Then their were scientist that lived their entire lives from cradle to grave thinking the earth was flat. They never knew anything else, and to them, this was fact. But it wasn't fact.
Then there were those who lived their entire lives from cradle to grave thinking the Tasmanian Tiger was extinct. To them, this was fact. But when one was later discovered and filmed, this too became a non fact.
So to sit here and say that you have facts that God doesn't exist is very naive. You have no such facts and never will. But one day you will die also and you will get a chance to see if your facts are indeed factual.
