    Your use of oh so small portion to justify hate against all of them isn’t justifiable. They give a small amount, and the lefts irrational hate of them is massive.

    Sure. Guess Christians are the only ones who see the danger of kids worshiping Satan. Irreligious are clueless. But constitutionally...Satanic worshipers are protected.

    you obviously are not reading what I post, only what you want to see

    I have said repeatedly that most Theists and Atheists are good people, that were are only talking about the fanatics on both sides here

    most of the Christian fanatics are on the right....

    I think the sad thing is politics has become a LOT like religion. It use to be about policies and what can you do different than the other people to fix the country. Now it is like religion where people blindly follow their leaders. Policies are no longer the forefront and rarely discuss but how evil the other side is and how we have to stop them is.

    I’m reading exactly what you post.

    You can justify it all you want, but the lefts hatred of Christians is irrational and unjustified.

    obviously you're not if you made a post about me like you did, as I made it very clear many times in thread

    the fact is, there are many more religious fanatics than non-religious ones, just a fact

    but let me repeat, most theists and atheists are good people

    I am reading exactly what you post.

    the fact is, you are wrong. The hate the left has for Christians is irrational and far outweighs what little Christian’s give.

    The Christians are taking a page from the Muslims. The Muslims were forced into this position by the Western powers supporting repressive regimes that allowed no dissent, so dissent went to religion and now this ideology is coming back to bite the West in the ass. Just goes to show you shouldn't repress people but even Machiavelli knew that.

    Sounds to me like they are...or at least worshipping the ideological concepts of what Satan stands for. Keep in mind people worship all sorts of things don't realize...from themselves and their own "enlightenment" to climate change ideology.

    this is from their site

    https://thesatanictemple.com/pages/after-school-satan

    "
    After School Satan Club Mission
    Proselytization is not our goal, and we’re not interested in converting children to Satanism. After School Satan Clubs will focus on free inquiry and rationalism, the scientific basis for which we know what we know about the world around us.

    We prefer to give children an appreciation of the natural wonders surrounding them, not a fear of everlasting other-worldly horrors.
    "

    this is their handbook

    the reason they still exist is Christian parents complain so loudly that the schools decide to ban all religious groups to make them happy

    then the Christian group is seen as worshiping, so neither should be connected to the school... right?

    any religious group that tries to force their religious beliefs on other people's children is an example

    Who said "The ends justify the means."

    “THE world has watched the American Presidential election with mounting
    disbelief as tales of incompetence and skullduggery have emerged. None
    of these electoral misdeeds have surprised me -- but I am puzzled that
    they have taken this long to be uncovered. I know they occur: I fixed
    an election myself.

    He was clearly in charge of this polling station, but I didn't dare ask how he
    came to be in charge. Instead I gathered my courage and went to look
    at the back of the voting machine to see if any votes had been
    registered. Fifty had. It was seven-thirty in the morning. The polls
    didn't open until eight.”

    Of course they do but let's be honest ..... The only reason you think it's so great is because you perceived that it will piss off the conservative Christian parents.

    Basically it started just to troll people.... I can see how you would appreciate that
