The satanic organization Satan Temple has begun to infiltrate schools and influence children in various areas of the US
There has been a major backlash from parents in Northern York County Pennsylvania of the US, after approval was given by officials to hold a Satan Temple event in a school.
Officials approved Dillsburg North High School’s back-to-the-desk event after summer break, organized by the organization Satan Temple. The event is another attempt to infiltrate the school as an After School Satan Club, US media reports.
The satanic organization attempted to establish a branch of it After School Satan Club at a school in April, but her efforts were met with denial by the school board.
Perry County resident Jennifer McAllister said in April that the idea is “crazy.” “They already took God out of the schools, now they’re going to let Satan in, it’s just crazy,” he declared.
THE Lucien Graves, the co-founder of the Satanic Temple, said the group is looking for “other religious representation.” “We don’t condone, we don’t complain about anybody having a prayer event or anything like that,” Greaves said. “It becomes a problem, a serious problem, when a prayer event is allowed back at the school, but no other religious representation is allowed.”
He added that parents should look at the event from a First Amendment perspective. “We’re talking about upholding the fundamental pillars of democracy and the First Amendment,” he said.
The event comes a few days after a night of prayer hosted by Dillsburg Community Worship and Prayer.
THE School District of Northern York told the news outlet that it does not support the activity of outside groups, but says it allows organizations to rent facilities.
The Satanic Temple organization has attempted to establish After School Satan Clubs in schools across the country that have a functioning religious club.
In May, he tried to gain a presence in Guilford County schools in North Carolina, angering parents, who rallied to protest.
A website for the “After School Satan Club” states that the group meets in “selected” public schools where “Good News Clubs and other religious clubs” meet, and states that the clubs are formed at the request of community members.
