Okay, as un-bad as I feel about the Ten Commandments statue being torn down, I feel even better about the Satanic Temple's response. The Satanic Temple really seems to be some pretty stand-up, reasonable people, and basically their reactions to everything fill me with joy.

...I can scarcely believe that is an actual sentence I actually came up with.

It was a pretty good one!

They're still supportive of these laws that violate church and state in order to promote their religion. They aren't doing it as satire or to be ironic.

They obviously misrepresent Satanism, and Lucien Greaves tries to deny there's any dark side to it. He's a big advocate for debunking the idea that victims of childhood sexual abuse can recover their traumatic memories, since pedophilia is sometimes a part of their rituals. The main guy who brought him to Oklahoma is a convicted rapist, and has a page for rape support on his website. They love to mock people like that. It's so psychopathic, but lying and deceiving people is doing their god's work.
