As ever, Satan is the good guy.
I mean he was an angel that was kicked out of heaven for his don’t tread on me tee shirt…
But in all seriousness, the religious right has more in common with Satan than God. Pick one Good aspect of the Bible and the right does none of those things.
Lucifer was kicked out of Heaven for rebelling against God, which he did because he was jealous of humanity.
Or so the Paradise Lost goes. None of that shit is in the Bible.

I disagree, Satan seems like a pretty reasonable dude from what I can tell. If anything, Old Testament God and conservatives line up fairly well.
Jesus on the other hand was a hardcore leftist.

Holy Trinity my dude. Jesus is also his father and the ghost thing… Idk I never paid attention during church
God’s a petty asshole throughout much of the Bible. I’d say they have a lot in common with him.
True that’s why I said good things in the Bible.
Isn’t this like 90% of their thing?
Awesome, fighting the good fight.
Hail Satan, or not, I’m not your boss.
Begun, the New Crusades have.
I’m just here to make my 666th comment in a satanism related community. But also, hell yeah.
I don’t want fun.
TST sucks ass though. Their leadership is all abusive right wing hierarchical assholes and all they actually do is profit off of an image that they fight for abortion rights and such, when in reality they’ve never won a court case and have been time and time again completely incompetent in their litigations. Theres a huge community of grassroots actually leftist satanists and after being deprogrammed from TST they all try to come out about the abuses they suffered at the hands of TST leadership only to be sued into silence. There’s a ton of info about this, but a good place to start for those curious is the group Queer Satanic.
A link to a local St. Louis, Missouri paper with an excellent report validating your abortion claims. They interview one of the pregnant women who was told they would help her, but basically it ended with a lot of publicity for them and nothing for her.
The Satanic Temple Sought to Upend Missouri Abortion Law. Their Plans Went to Hell
TST sucks ass though.
It is QUITE A BIT more nuanced than that…

News story #3 is actually kind of crazy to me. The only possible explanation for someone filling that lawsuit is if they don’t believe in their own tenets. The suit has no grounds and is meant to suppress criticism.
It pretty clearly is a direct contradiction with tenet 4 (respecting freedoms of others, especially the freedom to offend) I might expect hypocrisy like this from other religious groups, but for TST, the tenets are a fundamental part of their movement.
