It appears as though someone thought it to be a good idea to place a 10 commandments statue at the Oklahoma Statehouse. It was erected with private funds so no foul right?


Checkmate



I think the children are a nice touch. The lap available for a seat is a nice option as well.
[INDENT]The proposed statue depicts Satan in the form of Baphomet, Time reports, a goat-headed biped complete with horns, hoofs, and wings, sitting against a stone with a pentagram etched into it. Standing on Satan’s sides are two smiling children, and Satan’s lap will also function as a chair “where people of all ages may sit . . . for inspiration and contemplation,” said Satanic Temple spokesperson Lucien Greaves.
Late last year, the American Civil Liberties Union contested the placement of the Ten Commandments on the grounds of the state house, arguing that if the legislature allowed the Ten Commandments, it must allow other religious groups to put up monuments as well.

I demand an altar to His Noodly Appendage be placed in all public buildings.

The funny thing is that after seeing the picture, I knew it was in the form of Baphomet before reading any of the quoted part of the article.

Further proof that being a metalhead is educational!

LOL. You got me, Bro. Nothing.

Looks more like whacky Satanists trolling Christians, which likely will lead to the usual butthurtitude.
