Hot diggity do I love me some TST. They're the best. We donate to them regularly, and their shop has some of the coolest merch.
Good looking out, I need to kick them another donation. My wife and I got the member cards which are amazing a few months back. I should browse the rest of their store.
they were my Amazon smile donation back when that was going on.
I'm religious and I'd rather trust my kid with a Satanic Temple volunteer that some born-again wingnut any day.
Chaplains are not qualified to serve in schools.
Hail Satan.
hail satan!!
Hail satan~
UwU Satan
Hail satan.
Actually it's Satine
Florida is going to hell all by itself, with or without them.
kinda funny the satanists are the ones attempting to prevent that
Well, it's a good strategy to use in Florida, given that the state bans books while the governor claims to support "freedom".
Satanists don't believe in hell.
But is it going to hell in a handbasket?
Probably not; a gator's stomach is the more likely answer I feel.
I love the Satanic Temple! Sticking it to the crazy Christians trying to take everything over.
This is so good they cant stop them without stopping all religions from being in school. Genius move lol.
It is master trolling, at least that is how I perceive this "religion". It is like Pastafarianism, but much less obvious parody of the contemporary Christianity.
I'd support anything that scares the daylights out of these damn "conservatives" and "bible-thumpers".
This shtick will stop when the legislator would draft a bill singling Christianity(tm) as the only legal religion.
Don't get me wrong - I'm as atheist as a hitchens fan, but the "loophole" that the satanic temple is exploiting will be eventually plugged by right wing nutjobs.
That's the point, right? At best this will shut down some poorly written legislation. If it doesn't, and the law gets changed to be explicitly Christian, then at least it's out in the open and no one can claim it's about protecting ALL religions.
Several states of the USA will become a theocracy with The Handmaid's Tale as a manual. It's inevitable.
They are getting a lot of press lately and I'm sure the kids would benefit from another view point especially in such a back water place like Florida.
I don't think the Satanic Temple would support smoking meth.
Floridians do though.
Florida's favorite pastime
Florida man articles make more sense if you remember this fact
The 7 commandments of TST kinda hints towards "yes to meth or whatever the fuck you want as long as you don't bother others"

Chief Justice John Roberts, writing for the majority, concluded that school officials did not violate the First Amendment. To do so, he made three legal determinations. First, under the existing school speech precedents Tinker v. Des Moines Independent Community School District (1969), Bethel School District No. 403 v. Fraser (1986) and Hazelwood School District v. Kuhlmeier (1988), students do have free speech rights in school, but those rights are subject to limitations in the school environment that would not apply to the speech rights of adults outside school. Supreme Court cases since Tinker have generally sided with schools when student conduct rules have been challenged on free speech grounds. Second, the "school speech" doctrine applied because Frederick's speech occurred at a school-supervised event. Finally, the Court held that the speech could be restricted in a school environment, even though it wasn't disruptive under the Tinker standard, because "the government interest in stopping student drug abuse...allow[s] schools to restrict student expression that they reasonably regard as promoting illegal drug use."
Doing the better lord's work
Florida is going to be so pissed at TST for getting all this PR and fund raising while adding to their impressive list of accomplishments listed below:

You're too generous with all those dots and free space.
Remember, god also created satanists because some of his fans need to have their "enthusiasm" curbed.
Hail Satan. 🤘🏽🥰
Let them cook.
🤘
lmao
Sign up 1000 Islamic mullahs to go into schools and watch the Evangelicals freak out.
Florida:
"We have a new bill to allow our state religion to brain wash vulnerable children."
"No, not like that!"
This terrifies me, not being cause of the Church of Satan, but because of the Y'all Quaeda assholes that are going to walk into those schools and shoot them.
They are never ever going to stop our secular government will die by a million cuts.
