Satanic Temple display approved for Florida Capitol


I agree that all should.. provided they all follow the rules equally, and all are sincere in their intentions.

I vehemently disagree with barring all of them , though.... I support religious freedom, I don't oppose it.

my point about atheists is that if they were consistent, they would oppose the satanists churches actions as they do the Christians church actions....but American atheists are a weird lot, they only have a hard-on for Christians.
 

You only 'know' about atheists from those who see any actions or words from non-believers as oppressive. What the enemy says about the opponent is seldom complete truth

I agree with your last sentence... your first sentence means nothing, as you are assuming something about me ..without basis.

The "basis" of my earlier replies are your comments, without your words I would not have posted as I did.

AND now back to the topic
 

Are you suggesting Satanism is a lesser religion than others?

of course it's a lesser religion.. there's very few members in comparison to major religions.

Sure less people follow Satanism, that is true but why would that mean it shouldn't be taken as seriously as religions like Christianity, Islam, Scientology, etc. ?

should or shouldn't is irrelevant...

it isn't... that's just the reality of it.


be that at it may, my point is that their display won't be taken seriously.... most folks will either ignore it entirely, think they are trolling, or be offended... there's no benefit for the church of Satan
they should be able to legally put put their display, no doubt about it... but to think they will be taken seriously is simple wishful thinking.
 

Fair enough.
 
Is that what the subject Satanists of this thread believe? I honestly don't believe they have the wit or understanding of any of this.

That would make it smaller, not lesser.
 

Some person took it seriously enough to damage the Satanic Temple's display
