As our American civil society continues to decay, I can’t help noticing the unholy name of Satan popping up with with growing frequency in news stories. Here are two of the most recent:
First we have a New York City-based group ~ Satanists launch campaign to stop corporal punishment in schools. This story from the Daily Caller seems weirdly incongruous. One wonders how opposition to corporal punishment suddenly became a cause célèbre for devil- worshipers… I’m guessing it’s just a attention-getting stunt ~
The Satanic Temple has officially declared May 15th as “Protect Children Day” in an effort to eradicate corporal punishment and the use of isolation rooms across the country […]
The homepage of the Satanic Temple website includes a five-pointed star and a goat-like Satan symbol. The background color is a sort of blood-spattered, obscure-KISS-album red […]
“The physical and psychological abuse of children is completely immoral. It is disturbing that no other religious organization has publicly expressed this sentiment and we sincerely hope our colleagues of other faiths will come forth to protect children from these kinds of violence and support our initiative,” (Satanic Temple spokeswoman Lucien Greaves) proclaimed.
See what I mean? Since when do Satanists have any sort of moral code?
Incidentally, this is the same civic-minded group that was planning to erect a statue of the devil at the Oklahoma state Capitol.
On the Left coast they’re a lot more overt, even pushing their deviant ideology at a Catholic (nominally at least) School: University of San Diego goes Satanic – April 10 drag show features transvestite Tootie Nefertootie ~
The drag show concluded with a student representative of USD Gay Pride thanking “the school for letting this happen…[because]…as you know some people may find this conversation uncomfortable…[however]…this is a testament to our…Catholic identity and our mission and values as a Catholic school to promote diversity and inclusion” 😯 […]
For his last diabolical selection of the evening, Tootie lip-synced the lyrics from the song “Good N’ Evil” by Linda Eder:
Tootie as devil:
Good and evil –
And their merits –
Men have argued through history –
As well they should!
My philosophy
Any child can see –
“Good is evil –
And therefore
All evil is good”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Is Satan a real being? Most Americans doubt his existence – at their own peril. The Pope knows better ~
The day following the drag show, during his Friday morning Mass at Casa Santa Marta, Pope Francis warned us that the devil still exists and that he doesn’t want anyone to follow Christ.
Exactly.
As our culture grows ever uglier, the growing boldness of those claiming Satanic allegiance is no coincidence.
Christians should be alert to the increasing threat; the devil is as real as God.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“The battle against the devil, which is the principal task of Saint Michael
the archangel, is still being fought today, because the devil is still alive
and active in the world. The evil that surrounds us today, the disorders that
plague our society, man’s inconsistency and brokenness, are not only the
results of original sin, but also the result of Satan’s pervasive
and dark action.”
~ Pope John Paul II – 1987 ~
Vade retro me, Satana!
