It's not called "secular philosophy club" it's called "satanic temple".
And so does religious freedom only extend to deistic religion? Or does Buddhism count?
No the question is why they're calling something not related to worshipping Satan a Satanic Temple and then pretend that this name doesn't directly imply they are worshipping Satan.
You're all doing your very best to avoid to the actual argument.
They literally chose the name to be antagonistic to Christians, and judging from your comment chain, it appears to be working as intended.
If anything, it's weird to see it work so well.
Yes that was very obvious. But chosing an antagonistic name or literally lying to be edgy are two different things.
They aren’t pretending they don’t imply that. They’re explicitly stating that they don’t, but that it shouldn’t matter even if they did.
No, you're doing your very best to prove the ENTIRE POINT of all of this -
That Y'all want Christianity to be the official state religion that can be pushed on children by the state, and all other religions or belief systems should not be allowed in public arenas, areas, etc etc.
I'm reading that they have religious clubs. Did they ban other religious clubs?
It's much the same way christians say they worship Jesus, but in reality most of them worship wealth and power, then cover up for pedophiles as long as they say the magic words.
Satanists pay lip service to Satan exactly the same way, and dare I say because, Christians pay lip service to Jesus. The difference is Satanists arent hypocrites about their disbelief.
