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.

It’s so funny seeing Cristians protest against these clubs that they don’t understand, and the best part is they can’t do shit.

Sorry (not sorry), Christians - religious freedom means freedom to practice ALL religions. This is categorically a constitutional matter, and you do not have a legal recourse to halt this (nor should you).

Which especially funny because it's part of the same religion, just the "other side"

Godspeed

Satanspeed?

You divided the thread, splitting reality into two! Now who knows what will happen!

Better than an after-school christian club ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Well, the reason for the after school Satan club was that they had a pre school Christian club.

Breakfast with God, dinner with the Devil!

How most Christians naturally react through the day due to coping mechanisms that rely on a being that isn't real and can do nothing for you lol.

"Freedom of religion!

... As long as it's ours"

The whole idea behind it is pretty genius. Metaphorically speaking, the only people that think there's a supernatural devil behind this club is because they want to shove their belief in their Gods into schools. If one must exist in schools then so must the other.

LOL! Good luck with that. You invited me in. I'm not going anywhere. 😈

Totally read that as Santa and was confused why 1 they made a Santa club and 2 why people were so angry to ban it. Either way bunch of haters and need to be more tolerant like their Jesus was

To be fair, in both cases the situation would have been the same: An after-school club with a fictional mascot taken from Christian mythology, protested BY Christians who are ironically the only ones to actually believe that said mascot exists IRL.

Damn, the new Hate Die: School Satanic Project TV adaptation looks pretty legit ngl
