Freedom is great. If the Satanists want to embody depicting all other people of faith as "tyrannical and oppressive"; that's their right. Just not on school grounds where that amounts to demonizing (hating) kids who are religious there.
They screwed up. Their intro was a fail.
Don't Christians depict all other people as sinners who are bound for hell? Is that not demonizing (hating) kids who are not Christian?
No, they don't. They depict all of THEIR OWN people as sinners as a requirement to join Christianity and stay within the fold. The first thing you do and stay doing when you are a Christian is to announce you are with sin. Purging sin is a never ending process and so, if Christians were without sin, there'd be nobody going to church. The Christian church even encourages compassion and camaraderie with other faiths. Just not the Satanists faith because they've announced long ago (LONG ago) that their essence is "the defiance of all things Godlike or moral". So yeah, bit of a dogma clash there..
The Christian edict is to "hate the sin but love the sinner". In contrast, the church of the Satanists professes to demonize other religious folk as "tyrannical and oppressive". Ie: their edict is "hate others who aren't like us". So, that was their mistake. Like I said before, live and learn..
