Listen to this frickin' guy.
He’s right.
Unless you want to make this an expressed Christian theocracy, then including prayer of one type opens the door for prayer of any type.
I’m not offended by sincere Christian prayer in almost any setting. I think far too many public setting are far more performative than sincere, but that’s another story.

And I don't necessarily disagree, but you were injecting something into a statemen,t trying to pigeonhole it and turit n into an argument that you wanted to have because you all prepared with your points.
Now I can argue that this nation is indeed a Christian nation founded upon Judeo-Christian ethics because that's clearly in the writings,
not only the official writings
but the writings of the Founding Fathers who wrote the official documents.
And in doing so they did not choose one particular branch of Christianity they made the effort this specific effort in their writings to point out that it was just a sense of the Creator God
the Judeo Christian God
your attempts to interject the denomination of the faith into the argument is irrelevant
because it was irrelevant to the Founding Fathers
Please, tell me more about how the founding fathers were part of something that only started less than 100 years ago.

Got to be some town near the University of Iowa or Iowa State.
The Iowa chapter doesn't seem to have an address, so I'm guessing it's online mostly.
This is the same group who did this at the capitol in Iowa a few years ago
Here we go again: Banning unpopular religious displays is not the solution
quote:
The latest example leaves me shaking my head, not just at the events themselves but at the reactions. Mrs. Gentry, my history and government teacher in high school, would be dismayed by intelligent people misunderstanding one of the foundations upon which the United States was established — that foundation being the desire of people for intellectual freedom.
How I wish I could still drop by the Gentry home, park myself on Mrs. G’s couch and dive into an in-depth conversation with her and Mr. G about the events that transpired in recent days at the Iowa Capitol. Some people’s mistaken notion of what religious freedom involves has brought the spotlight to Iowa from as far away as Great Britain’s BBC.
The trigger for all of this attention was the decision by the Satanic Temple of Iowa to temporarily erect a small altar with candles and a caped, ram’s-head figure representing the pagan idol Baphomet. The display was off the Capitol rotunda next to the grand staircase, not far from where another group placed the traditional Christian nativity scene.
Faster than you could slide down a chimney, controversy boiled up.

You seem confused as to both what's happening in OP, their beliefs, and this conversation.
I didn't say I was laughing at you. It seems like you read it that way
No, dumbass, let me walk you through your own idiotic "logic." When you say that they do this to "laugh at people like me", you're saying that it is my fault that they are doing this. And still not acknowledging that you have been dead wrong all along about the prevalence of Satanism within our society.
It's very simple. First you started blaming the Christians and then when you were called out on it you started blaming ME. For refusing to admit your own frickin error.
Everyone is at fault except SFP. It is the definition of narcissism.

I’ve been to Ottumwa Iowa. This actually makes sense because that town is literally hell.

You think someone who is selling you a shite sandwich is going to market it that way?
Any religion that teaches you do not have to keep the commandments is not of God.
Whose world do you think you live in?

What is Judeo-Christian as opposed to simply Christian?

Right, but this guy is just another edge lord making a "point" about separation of church and state.
It should be outlawed. I don't care if it's unconstitutional.
Edit: SATANISM should be outlawed, for my downvoters

Why is Iowa the big flashpoint for this silliness?
Is it really just the whitebread wholesome Midwestern types that make these people seethe the most?

Most American colonies and early independent states required public officials, assembly members, and delegates to be Christian or profess specific Protestant or Christian beliefs in order to hold office.
Colonial Rules and Religious Tests
• Office Requirements: Most British-American colonies enforced religious test laws, meaning that lawmakers, representatives, and civil officers had to swear oaths affirming Christian doctrine or belong to the official state-established church.
• Established Churches: Eight of the thirteen colonies had official state-supported churches, such as the Church of England (Anglican) in the South or Congregationalist churches in New England. Dissenters or non-Christians were frequently barred from public office or political delegation.
• Early State Constitutions: When the colonies declared independence, several new states kept these religious tests. For example, the 1776 Delaware Constitution required officeholders to declare faith in the Trinity and the divine inspiration of the Scriptures. Other states like Maryland required belief in the Christian religion, while New Jersey and Georgia specified Protestantism.
Shift to the U.S. Constitution
• Article VI: To prevent a national religious requirement, the framers added the No Religious Test Clause in Article VI, Clause 3 of the U.S. Constitution, banning any religious test as a qualification for federal office.
• State Phase-Out: Individual states gradually removed their own religious test requirements for state and local office over the subsequent decades.
The bolded parts are my two specific points that the framers of the Constitution Founding Fathers were indeed Christian;
the second point illustrates how those people avoided the establishment of an offical religion and the establishment of a federal government did not specifically say one denomination

These fricking idiots will tell you that when they profess allegiance to Satan and even attend the church of Satan that they are not actual Satanists. And I'm not shitting you here. SFP has pulled this shite many times. "They're just edgelords" despite them literally attending the church of Satan.
It's the craziest shite you'll ever see. These people actively run interference for Satanists.

How were the founding fathers part of something that didn't exist until the 1930s.

Every single member of the Church of Satan says they do not worship Satan.
If that is true, why name the church after him and why pray to him? That video clearly shows a prayer to him. To say otherwise is to not be truthful.
