The Satans in the Old Testament were servants of God. They were angelic beings given a role by God as an adversary to specific humans or humanity. It wasn't a name, it was a description. The angel in Job, the angel that stood in the path of Balaam, the angel that accused Joshua.
The modern day Satanic Temple is an adversary of Christian Nationalists and God bless them for it. I mean... if there is a good god, they would bless the Satanic Temple for their work.
So kindly fuck off with your white Christian Evangelical privilege and Christian nationalism, lady.
And then to further demonstrate that her opposition to ASS is based on Bronze Age superstition, she organizes a Magick ritual that places a magical ward against evil around the school. I guess she missed the Bible class on avoiding the practice of sorcery.
“Here's why: First of all, can we look at a policy that simply states a club's title needs to be descriptive to the activity of the club?”
Then the Good News Clubs are out. It’s not news. It ain’t good. Besides that, there’s no description regarding the activities involved, just like the After School Satan clubs. If we were to call the GNCs what they are, you’d get bent out of shape because no one wants to be called out as indoctrination clubs. But that’s all they are.
Christian on Christian violence, in the name of Christianity, has spilled enough blood to float the Navy. Based on their relative body-counts in the Old Testament, I never understood how Satan got labeled as the bad guy in the first place. The God of the OT was a blood-thirsty monster, perpetually outraged over events he had to know were going to happen before they happened. I suspect this woman's thinking stems from only ever having been exposed to apologetics, and not actual history.

I have no problem with this. ASS can change to "Critical thinking activities with lego, sponsored by The Satanic Temple," while the GNC can change theirs to "Bible study, sponsored by [local evangelical church name]." Let's see how that goes.
Christian child proselytizers regularly use deceptively named meetings. You want to take the deception away, it'll hurt Christianity a lot more than any other religious outreach group.
Wow, ASS clubs are worse than Nazis and the KKK!?! Let’s have a look at how many Satanic Temple members have lynched people. How many they’ve gassed. How many they’ve beaten in the streets. Or how many churches they’ve bombed. None, you say? Hmmm, makes me wonder what you think makes a person bad. Looks like a bad person is anyone who isn’t exactly like you, no matter what the person like you does to harm others and that what the bad person actually believes is a societal good.
The Satanic Temple has never lied, which is more than I can say about you. Their presence, and nose tweaking (by using the the name Satan) does not rise to the vilification you are doing in your speech. So, you do not get to complain they are demonizing Christians. They are simply exercising their religious freedom and providing the children an option to do the same.
Like it or not, The Satanic Temple is recognized by the government as an official religion. So not using their name in their club would not be describing their club at all. Plus, they get the same protections and privileges any Christian group would. Choke on that.
At this point, Tuesday morning, there are thirty-plus comments. I just read through them, and most correspondents try to apply rational thought and logic to the situation. Cleary Lisa does not.
The deeply believing modern Christian is delusional and, as such, is unable to process any situation without the religious filter that makes her misinterpret reality.
In all of history, I have never heard of Satan -- beyond the Bible -- and his disciples actually causing chaos to human beings.
I have heard of good Christians and Nazis, however, engaging in ghastly acts of genocide.

She says it all when she includes Antifa in her rant. Lady, if you are against anti-fascism then you must be pro-fascism.

Religious freedom. I do not think it means what she thinks it means.
Satanists are worse than Nazis, Crazyface?
Unlike your delusions, the Nazis really were Christians. Just. Like. You. Oh, and the KKK are Christians, in case you conveniently forgot.

Lisa Davis is against all of that.
I think I get now the Christian right’s attitude towards public schools. They’re conquistadors. Slaughter and pillage. Convert what is left.

So, require the Good News Club to change its name to Right Wing Christian Indoctrination Club.
