Community members in a Tennessee school district want to banish Satan from their children’s halls after the formation of a new club was announced.
The After School Satan Club (ASSC) wants to establish a branch in Chimneyrock elementary school in the Memphis-Shelby county schools (MSCS) district.
The ASSC is a federally recognized nonprofit organization and national after-school program with local chapters across the US. The club is associated with the Satanic Temple, though it claims it is secular and “promotes self-directed education by supporting the intellectual and creative interests of students”.
The Satanic Temple makes it clear its members do not actually worship the devil or believe in the existence of Satan or the supernatural. Instead Satan is used as a symbol of free will, humanism and anti-authoritarianism.
Nobody thinks you’re making a good faith argument here, dingus.
Be gone, troll.
Irony
I think you’ve completely missed the point. It is in bad faith, and the fact that people get mad about it demonstrates Christian hypocrisy.
Just because YOU don’t like their name, or why they chose it, doesn’t make it bad faith.
It highlights your hypocrisy.
