Major props to Michael Cassidy, the man who beheaded the Baphomet display in the Iowa state capitol. I hope this incident elevates the discussion of "Who is God" in this country. Traditionally God has been considered the Creator. That was certainly the perspective of our founding fathers. This country was founded on a framework of Judeo-Christian values placing God the Creator as the source of all human rights.
Satan is not a creator. Satan is created. Created by whom? By God. Although he rebelled against God, he is not God, he is a created being. In Romans 1:23, the admonishment to not worship creation is clearly stated. Of course, anyone who would worship Satan will ignore the bible.
Point being, I don't think the founding fathers ever considered worship of Satan to be a protected religious practice. Our nation was built upon the belief in a benevolent God. The first amendment right to freedom of worship really should be interpreted as intended to allow free worship of God the Creator, not free worship of creation or any created entity. We are confusing worship of spiritual entities (demons) for the worship of God. I hope in the new America this misinterpretation is corrected.
No Satanism was certainly not considered a protected religion by our Founders.
It is the complete opposite of religion, the acknowledgement and worship of the true God.
They believe in Satan but they said there is no God. I can't wrap my head around this.
No. Sorry, but no. It’s very clear that the founders believed that you should be free to worship anything you believed in. It’s better referred to as freedom of conscience, and that goes hand in hand with freedom of speech. That said, our entire system of laws exists to protect us from actions inspired by any belief that infringes upon our agreed upon, inalienable rights. You can no more control what a man believes in, or claims to believe in, than you can control the weather. But you can throw someone’s ass in jail if they hurt you or steal from you or conspire with others to do so. While I don’t think effigies to Satan belong in public buildings, you’re walking a dangerous line when you start claiming that people with different beliefs than yours shouldn’t qualify for the same legal protections you enjoy. Doesn’t matter what they call what they worship. No matter how detestable you find it. Does that mean we should be stupid and open our borders to say…millions of Muslims who have shown a tendency for abusing the democratic processes in Republics to enact Sharia law? Of course not. But as for people who are already here, if their religion is so dangerous, they’ll find themselves in jail soon enough, as long as our laws are upheld according to precedent. Sorry not sorry.
I dont get it. How many nativity and menorah displays were banned because 'it might offend someone'. Well, this one offends me. Remove it in total NOW.
Hold on cow-pokes. What about the obvious masonic (satanic) design of Washington DC? We all know who they worship. I'm now thinking it has always been a mix of satanists and Godly ones. By design.
George Washington believed in a benevolent Providence, and Thomas Jefferson said he was a Christian as intended by the words of Jesus, so to me, it seems like we had a lot of good people in Washington back then. and Q did say there are good & bad in freemasonry. So I tend to think we have good guys/actors playing ‘bad guys’ to blur the reality, lure out demons and get people to ‘discern’
example; GW was a ‘master’ mason, lots of Masonic imagery around him, but look how tall his statue is/scroll down.
sorry forgot link the first time🤦♀️

and the words of Jesus are also known as the Q-Source…
a lot to think about for sure.
Jefferson also had every miracle Jesus worked deleted from his Bible.
have you read his letter to Dr. Rush? he was highlighting the actual teaching and words of Jesus...getting us to think before blindly accepting what religious people 'tell' us to believe; to become familiar with Jesus, not the contrivances.
"to the corruptions of Christianity, I am indeed opposed; but not to the genuine precepts of Jesus himself. I am a Christian, in the only sense in which he wished any one to be; sincerely attached to his doctrines, in preference to all others; ascribing to himself every human excellence, & believing he never claimed any other."

And we know Q is fond of JFK. and JFK was a fan of Thomas Jefferson...
"I want to tell you how welcome you are to the White House. I think this is the most extraordinary collection of talent, of human knowledge, that has ever been gathered together at the White House, with the possible exception of when Thomas Jefferson dined alone.
Someone once said that Thomas Jefferson was a gentleman of 32 who could calculate an eclipse, survey an estate, tie an artery, plan an edifice, try a cause, break a horse, and dance the minuet. Whatever he may have lacked, if he could have had his former colleague, Mr. Franklin, here we all would have been impressed."
