The devil's making headlines again by coming to your kids' schools in 2024.
It's nothing new, of course. We know the spirt of darkness never went anywhere. The inspired Word of God speaks of Satan. Hollywood gave Satan his own TV show, "Lucifer," and there have been other TV shows and movies about the personification of evil. They don't even hide it. But the people who bring you the "After School Satan Clubs" say they're really not proselytizing about evil, they're just anti-Christian. Codswallop.
In the 1980s there was unseemly public fascination with Satan. El diablo was everywhere. News tips about Satan worshipers in the desert came in to the newsroom. Cops believed they saw Satan worship everywhere. Animal sacrifice stories appeared in the news. The McMartin preschool case featured a satanic worship storyline that was as big a whopper as the other hyperbolic and implanted "memories" from that horrendously destructive case. Church youth groups were told about satanic messages recorded backward on records. More than ten years on, people still believed they were hearing "Turn me on, deadman" in "Revolution Number 9" on the Beatles' White Album. Backward masking "Strawberry Fields" supposedly revealed the words "I buried Paul." The lore was furthered with the cover of the Abbey Road album featuring the band members, who were quickly labeled the funeral party getting ready to bury Paul, the "deadman" who was barefoot. Paul rolled with the American storyline. It didn't hurt album sales.
Satan's back in vogue now in schools in four different states. School districts in California, Ohio, Connecticut, and Pennsylvania have been targeted by the Satanic Temple organizations, established in 2013 by two guys who don't divulge their real names for some really good reason we'll bet.
This latest iteration of the Satanic Temple swears it doesn't teach about the forces of evil in its after school programs.
Its logo stands against a black background and features a googly-eyed, devil horn-wearing, bow-tied maestro wearing a graduation cap and displaying the two-fingered salute signifying devil's horns.
The atheists and anti-Christian people behind the organization say the ASSC are so much smarter than Christian groups because they believe in "critical thinking" and "science," not God, though the group has constructed an entire "temple" and host of programs to counteract an entity they claim they don't believe in. Weird, ihn't?

The Satanic Temple claims it is "not interested in converting children to Satanism." Furthermore, the clubs will "focus on free inquiry and rationalism, the scientific basis for which we know what we know about the world around us[emphasis added]." They should be kicked out of public schools run by Democrats in no time.
Sick! Students in @BVSDcolorado form a satanic pentagram around another student on the ground & shout “sacrifice” & “hail satan” as part of Monarch K8 school Satan Club.

Orange County, Calif., is the latest target of the satanists. The generally conservative county is home to more church starts and mega churches than Satan can keep up with, which is why the anti-Christians are going after the after school program.
Truman Benedict Elementary School in San Clemente is their next target. The first meeting of the Satan-believing atheist group will supposedly be on February 12.
As usual, the God-hating satanists claim the after school program has nothing to do with Satan.
A San Clemente man, David Harper, told CBS News: "This is a public school in a public venue [so] why call it a Satan Club if it isn't something to do with Satan? Is that some kind of attraction or what?" Well, yeah.
Years ago, I interviewed an evangelist who had earlier been intrigued by the backward masking craze. But now he'd seen enough. He told me basically (it's been a few years): "Why would Satan say something backward when he can do it forwards in an understandable way?"
What's that saying again?
