Bless the After School Satan (ASS) club 🤣 👹

Edit: such a sweet piece of naming it brings a tear to my eye 🍑🫏💦

Motto: "Come to school for a piece of ASS!"

... I feel bad about writing that.

I'm pretty sure that's the recruiting theme for Christian school teachers.

Satanic church probably does more good for humanity then those bible thumpers ever have or will...

[–] SinningStromgald@lemmy.world 15 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Not gonna bother looking for sources and just agree that what you said is a fact.

[–] sab@kbin.social 30 points 11 months ago

It's the Satanic Temple, they do some great stuff.

Then again, my left buttcheek has done more good for humanity that the Bible Trumpers ever will.

Church of Satan is weird, Temple of Satan is 👌

[–] Fiivemacs@lemmy.ca 1 points 11 months ago

Didn't even know there was a difference

[–] ieightpi@lemmy.world 45 points 11 months ago (2 children)

I think all religion is absolutely dumb and superstitious, but I give satanism a pass for the sake of essentially trolling what is considered normal religious standards.

[–] Khanzarate@lemmy.world 60 points 11 months ago

satanic temple doesn't believe in satan anyway, they're solid.

[–] w2tpmf@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

They don't troll. They have a believe system they honestly try to teach that is based on human morals instead of radicalized fiction. It's a genuine attempt to replace theistic religion with a religion of the real human existence.

Pastafarianism on the other hand is designed to troll normal religions.

Very interesting

“I just happened to look in my emails and see the letter from the principal coming through saying that it was coming to Chimneyrock," Kincaid said. "I'm about to come unglued right now.”

I'm trying to picture what this looks like. She's on the verge of throwing a temper tantrum over this, which is hilarious and to be honest really sad. These people need to grow up and get over themselves.

Also, why are only grandparents quoted in this article? Is there not enough conservative millennial rage in Tennessee to meet their quota?

Probably worked to death on two jobs, incoherent when interviewed.

After School Satan Club is an alternative to the evangelical clubs that are in thousands of schools across the United States

This is the way.

[–] Syo@kbin.social 13 points 11 months ago

ASS... All the cool kids are doing it.

[–] Chozo@kbin.social 9 points 11 months ago

Ave Satanas!

[–] kescusay@lemmy.world 29 points 11 months ago (2 children)

I mean, "after school Satan club" definitely sounds like something the Onion would come up with to make fun of the satanic panic Christian types.

[–] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 11 points 11 months ago

That's fair. I've been following them for a while, so it doesn't seem strange to me, but I can see what you mean.

[–] thanks_shakey_snake@lemmy.ca 5 points 11 months ago

This is correct.
