For a long time, it’s been known that The Satanic Temple’s co-owner Lucien Greaves once went on an antisemitic rant about how the Nazis ruined the word antisemitism for everyone and that it was “OK to hate Jews” so long as you were hating observant Jews. He was on a 24-hour radio show celebrating and […]

You don’t have to pick one, and neither do they. This probably deserves its own post in detail, but the idea that “no gods, no masters” means people can’t continue to experience religion seems as ridiculous as claiming it means no one could seek out an expert to apprentice themselves to (or a dominatrix to […]

This is going to seem like a stretch, but try to stick with it. At first glance, the idea seems ridiculous that it’s any kind of revolutionary act to make sure you’re using your bathroom breaks at a leisurely pace, posting memes from the Internet or watching till the end of a video. However, as […]

Religious Beliefs of The Satanic Temple The Satanic Temple believes that God is supernatural and thus outside of the sphere of the physical. God’s perfection means that he cannot interact with the imperfect corporeal realm. Because God cannot intervene in the material world, He created Satan to preside over the universe as His proxy.

TST members have lots of opinions on Palestine, but the Temple’s co-owner Cevin Soling is a Zionist, and his is the opinion that matters As Israel continues aggressively expanding and deepening its apartheid state, destroying Palestinian homes, killing children, and letting lynch mobs run through the streets in the name of self-defense, you may wonder […]

It’s really important for people, including Satanists, to understand that while non-violent tactics may be all you’re prepared to do, non-violence is not a real option when your adversary is a state committed to doing violence to you. Capital Area Satanists recently did a book study of This Nonviolent Stuff’ll Get You Killed: How Guns Made […]

Asexuality is part of the queer community. Unfortunately, one of the many things it shares with the rest of the queer community is our tendency to make whiteness default and ignore the ways that intersectionality complicates and stacks additional challenges on BIPOC queer people. There is a strain of gatekeeping who will say that asexual […]

It is really important to be able to spot the difference between AM versus FM technology, particularly when it comes to their promises. Actual Machine (AM) technology involves a lot of well-understood costs & challenges. It’s usually not very exciting. The solutions offered are quite obvious. Example: How do we lower traffic fatalities and provide […]

Rightfully, liberals find it very easy to notice (and laugh at) conservatives when they utilize slave imagery or yellow stars to compare themselves to persecuted Jewish people before and during the Shoah — particularly for such things as haircuts or mask-wearing during a deadly pandemic. But the desire to cosplay as victims of one sort […]
