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.
A comparison between the Church of Satan and the Satanic Temple
Watching the Church of Satan get exasperated when they’re tagged about this shit on Twitter never ceases to amuse me
Yeah I kind of love how the Satan churches hate each other, CoS basically calls the ST pussies and ST calls the CoS insane.
Is the blue cheese thing in their comparison chart thing real?
if liking blue cheese is gay then call me fabulous, idgaf. y’all can fight over your basic-ass ranch when the wings come out.

Published by The Satanic Temple. That’s a very important distinction to make.
Very true.
