Well we've talked about similar things in the past but now in good ol' Michigan there will be a Satanic display at our state capitol for the Christmas season. I find it hilarious that because of a rule that the display must be taken down at night there will be no christian nativity display this year.
Anyway here is the article for those of you who want to read the local news stirring the pot on the issue.

Awesome. The satanists have been pulling a lot of stunts like this in recent years. It's a great way to drive home the need to separate church and state, but unfortunately the points tends to go over a lot of heads, as evidenced by many of the comments on that article.

Yeah unfortunately religious freedom was setup because of religious intolerance and that intolerance has been passed down generation to generation. The satanists make great points and I'm all for their display even as a christian, but they will face intolerance at every turn.

"bad manners" lol...

"This is strange, Christmas is being hijacked by Satan. I understand that there is liberty. we have religious freedom, but there are limits to how these rights are supposed to be exercised."
Isn't it great how people think concepts such as liberty and freedom require their interpretation. He's got the right to have a problem with satanist displays, but this is simply an invalid argument. Why should religious freedom end where it clashes with his beliefs?
I love this comment though:
Ken Weeks They don't believe in a Satan as a real being. But you believe in someone who is said to have drowned almost all animals and people at once.

Yeah like I said intolerance is prevelent in the Christian world, many believe that they're religion is so perfect that anyone proclaiming anything different is a threat to them when in reality its just someone believing something else. If many Christians practice the actual teachings of Jesus instead of dwelling on social issiues that were mentioned less than 3 times in all scripture they'd be much happier
