The national ACLU, the ACLU of Pennsylvania and Dechert LLP filed suit against the school district on behalf of The Satanic Temple in March, arguing the district violated the First Amendment by prohibiting the club from meeting in the district’s facilities.
Said the judge:
”…although The Satanic Temple, Inc.’s objectors may challenge the sanctity of this controversially named organization, the sanctity of the First Amendment’s protections must prevail.
Personally, not a Satanist. I don’t understand why any group of people would adore an completely amoral entity apparently bent on the destruction of our lives and democracy (but then, I didn’t vote for him in 2016 or 2020).
But, if you’re going to have clubs for one mythical entity meeting on school district facilities, you gotta allow all of em, I guess.
Modern Satanists are cynics and not believers in the occult. The Satanic Temple teaches humanism, egalitarianism, benevolence, empathy, critical thinking, creative expression and compassion. They fight for civil liberties with ironic humor, and in general they are d@mned fine people.
THAT guy... If there's an afterlife, the weight of his sins will surely drop him like a friggin rock down to the nethers of the netherworld.
