The Satanic Temple

I hope its okay to post this here... ❤🤘❤

This Tenet can have a lot of interpretations and they’re all correct in my eyes.

Inviolable by definition means, “never to be broken, infringed, or dishonored.” The obvious interpretation is that your right to your own body should never be infringed upon, you are the master of your own body and no one and nothing else. This supports things like women’s reproductive rights.

For me it also goes a bit deeper. It means that you are not able to be tainted as a person. There is nothing you can do to yourself that will make you tainted, worthless, or shameful. No amount of piercings, tattoos, sexual partners, and other things society says determines your value, will ever change that. What you do with your body is your business and makes you no less and no more. This may be a stretch for some, I’m not sure, but I felt this meaning to my core when I first read this Tenet and I value it a lot, maybe the most.

I’m curious about your thoughts on Tenet III! How do you interpret it? Feel free to discuss your favorite Tenet as well.

🤘🏽 Hail Satan, Hail Thyself 🤘🏽

Curious as to how long after learning of TST did it take you to call yourself a Satanist. Immediate? Gradual? Thanks.

DES MOINES, Iowa (KCRG) - On Thursday, the Satanic Temple of Iowa announced that their display at the Iowa Capitol had been significantly damaged.

The controversial display, which Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds called “objectionable,” featured a ram’s head covered with mirrors on a mannequin before being damaged.

Organizers say it’s a symbol of their right to religious freedom.

The Satanic Temple of Iowa posted the following message on their Facebook page:

“This morning, we were informed by authorities that the Baphomet statue in our holiday display was destroyed beyond repair. We are proud to continue our holiday display for the next few days that we have been allotted.

We ask that for safety, visitors travel together and use the 7 Tenets as a reminder for empathy, in the knowledge that justice is being pursued the correct way, through legal means.

KCCI has reported that 35-year-old Michael Cassidy of Lauderdale, Mississippi, was charged with Criminal Mischief in the 4th Degree. He has since been released.

Solve et Coagula! Happy Holidays! Hail Satan!”

I thought only Florida would be dumb enough to have prageru be part of the curriculum. Apparently I was wrong and NH just approved it.

I was wondering if there's a TST equivalent to prageru or if there's something in the works? I know TST has gotten involved in some school clubs where religious stuff was mixed into public schools and thought this might be the next step.

I'm advertising a community, https://lemmy.world/c/otherworldly, for those of certain mindsets about spirituality and the intersection of spirituality and politics. If any are familiar with /r/sorceryofthespectacle, I plan to continue that vibe.

Chat opens at 8:00 and the discussion will be at 9:00. You do need to create a TST TV account, but temple services are free and you don't need to give them a credit card.

This was a long time ago, and it was posted on the Satanic Temple Subreddit from old. I wanna know what your opinions on it are now. I know some of the demons are a bit off, but as long as theres interest. Thank you!

Hello, hearing about this book and later reading it shaped a lot of my worldview. And I should suggest this book to everybody. And I think this video is a great introduction to anybody who wants to widen their worldview about satanism.

Hello, I am living in a county where if you are not a member of the mainstream religion you are shunned. And atheism is frowned upon. What are your advices to deal with fundamentalists. (I am living in Turkey)
