A "Satanic" statue was allowed among other religious scenery in the state's capitol.

It's a pretty awesome statue.

The comments are pretty much what you would expect on foxnews.com. Mildly entertaining, but I expect better commentary from you guys because you guys are wicked smart and stuff.

"The local chapter calls itself a nontheistic organization that aims to “encourage benevolence and empathy among all people.” The group also says it rejects tyrannical authority and advocates for common sense and justice, according to the application."

Like THAT's going to fly with anyone today

Concur, Bgz -- Great statue

Great statue. Pretty tame stuff. I wonder what Anton LaVey or Alister Crowley would have to say. Satan only exists in the Abrahamic religions. In classic mythology Lucifer is the bringer of light, a far different meaning. If one does some research Satanism rejects the idea of deities and focuses on hedonism.

The statue itself is cool.

The purpose is obvious.

And it's hateful and childish.

Cool looking statue.

Before I read the story, I thought you're thread title was talking about Madigan, Cullerton or any of the other phucktards running our state in to the sh*tter though.

Actually, if the Devil were real, he would be preferable to all the other idjit politicians we have now.

I'm sure many members of the Illinois parliament of whores will fins it convenient to bow to the statue as they enter.
