LINK Satanic Temple Protests Ten Commandments Monument With Goat-Headed Statue : NPR
From The Article:
The 7 1/2-foot figure is a symbol of pluralism, legal equality, tolerance and reconciliation for Satanists, Greaves explained to NPR on Friday.
And the reason he had hauled it out of storage to that particular site was to protest another monument permanently installed on the grounds: the Ten Commandments.
The Satanic Temple, a national organization with 15 chapters in the U.S. and one in Canada, objects to exclusively Christian religious displays on public property. It argues that public spaces should be free from religious messaging or be opened up to representations of all faiths, including Satanist icons.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.The initial unveiling was in Detroit, and I gotta say the people running the event were very nice normal people. No goats, children or virgins were sacrificed ( at least not publically), although i did have to sign a contract that sold my soul to Satan to enter ??????

I absolutely love these guys! They are more effective than an army of constitutional lawyers. I applaud the strategic use of the Baphomet bronze.
