What?

I’ll have to introduce you to Greg some time.
adarza@piefed.ca 2 weeks ago
he actually fits all four squares, here. approach with caution
thisbenzingring@lemmy.today 2 weeks ago
I knew a Greg once in grade school and junior high… When I met them again in adult life they were a lady but remembered me. I give her kindness but it’s still weird running into someone like that at work who knows you but you don’t recognize them (for obvious reasons)

I hated Greg. He always insists upon himself.
Poppa_Mo@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
The only Greg I ever knew lived in Ohio and we all know about Ohio.

Probably because members of TST aren’t followers of Baphomet. They don’t even believe it’s a real entity, let alone follow it or worship it.

Am I living in a bubble? I have never met an annoying satanist.

I believe OP means Christians?
Rawrosaurus@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks ago
If that is the case. I have met many annoying ones. The ones who stand out the most are the mormon missionaries who stalked me one summer, that had me so on edge and staring over my shoulder.

The elders of the Satanic Church here in the US are incredibly annoying.

Epstein and his ilk were doing some real satanic ritual shit, think thats what the Baph statue is about
okwhateverdude@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Satanists are annoying but only to shitheads because they remind the christofascists of the logical consequences of their actions/rules.

AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 2 weeks ago
LaVey got his shtick from Ayn Rand, and his Satanism was basically opposition to the hippie peace-and-love stuff. Nowadays, its attitude is indistinguishable from mainstream Republican Christianity.
The Satanic Temple were (AFAIK) a prank/art project based around the thought experiment of “if Christianity is about cruelty and domination, what if Satanism was about niceness?” The people running it are allegedly somewhat problematic, though its existence did spawn a raft of sincere Satanic-themed social-justice movements like the Global Order of Satan.

He could not be more divorced from the modern satanic temple which has essentially absolutely nothing to do with religion/worship/woowoo of any kind and only uses the religion label to leverage the same kind of loopholes that are baked in to society to benefit christian nationalism. They support atheism and science and just try to be as annoying and obstructive to organized religion in government as possible.

He played a mean calliope, but that’s the nicest thing I can think to say of him.

I’ll raise you; zionists
Because at least these megachurch pastor types are only diddling kids and getting plastic injections, and not making entire swathes of land uninhabitable with white phosphorus, glyphosphate and thermobaric bombs.

It did say annoying. Christianity isn’t all that annoying. You would have to go with like the door to door type religions first. And of course evangelical christians fit that bill.

More Baphomets should have breasts
flying_sheep@lemmy.ml 2 weeks ago
This one might not because it might be possible to reject its installation on that ground.
The Satanic Temple uses it to get Christian statues removed by saying “oh you have a Christian statue so in order to not discriminate based on religion, you need to install ours too”
I can imagine that the US is so prude that boobs might prevent that from working
ParadoxSeahorse@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Sorry is it not Baphomet (top left) ?
IAMgROOT@lemmy.wtf 2 weeks ago
what is this law???
religious discrimination because of a Christian statue? what?
brognak@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks ago
Canonically, Baphomet does have breasts as well as male features along with wings and scales, solve (dissolve) coagula (combine), pointing up and down, etc…
Whole thing is symbolism for balance and opposites. Just an edgier YinYang iirc originally dreamt up to slander/persecute the Knights Templar after they had gained too much power (and again iirc maybe have been doing some raw ass shit, but I am no KT historian)
