LINK Under Pressure, Alabama Approves “S8TAN” License Plate After First Rejecting It | Hemant Mehta | Friendly Atheist | Patheos

Last year, an Alabama resident who belongs to The Satanic Temple requested a personal license plate reading “S8TAN.”

Why would anyone do that in Alabama? Beats me. But my opinion is irrelevant. The point is that a member of a religious group wanted a license plate honoring Satan, no different from if a Christian wanted a license plate with a brief biblical message on it. As long as its in good taste, there shouldn’t be an issue.

But the state’s Motor Vehicle Division responded with a message saying the plate was “offensive to the peace and dignity of the State of Alabama.”
