A monument to the Ten Commandments that sits outside the Oklahoma statehouse may soon have some unholy company.

Satan worshipers are seeking to build their own monument at the state Capitol, and Lucien Greaves, a spokesman for the Satanic Temple, said he's "optimistic" it will be approved.

"I really don't see a grounds which they can reject this," he told ABC News.

Good idea or bad? Would you want this at your capitol? Is it just plain freedom of religion? Should the ten commandments be allowed while one that honors a pagan deity be denied or did the writers of the constitution really mean the freedom to practice Christianity, intending it to be the state religion?

Like, for instance, what if I believed in the existence of faeries and wanted to commission a statue honoring them, should I be allowed? What about Buddhists wanting to place a statue of Buddha? There are a lot of Asians in Oklahoma, and Catholic Mexicans. Should they be allowed to erect a statue of Mary on the capitol. Why not show the diversity of Oklahoma?

Tell me what you all think about this.

The more the merrier.
I hear Satanists can throw one hell of a BBQ.

They should also have monuments including:

The Shahada

The Ahimsa

The Sith Code

... And most importantly, this:

Hahahahaha! That would be awesome! I want a statue of Anakin Skywalker in the likeness of Hayden Christensen.

They either have to allow none or they have to allow all.

Just go to this link if you want to help with this freedom of expression, although it might make some a bit uncomfortable.

YOU are one of the people behind this?! !



Gotta find my checkbook ...

Having a caduceus popping out of your crotch when two little kids are right there just looks weird.

I wish!
It's got nothing to do with me. It's some Temple in NYC. If they are successful, the fanatics around here will most likely run up there in a blind furious rage and knock it down with base ball bats and sledge hammers. This thing will need 24 hr armed security.

(I've merged the two threads on this same subject.)

Is "cadaceus" a new word for "trouser snake"?

BTW ... sorry for not seeing the other thread sooner ... my bad.

I can't see a satan monument being tolerated in any state's capital, especially not a state like Oklahoma.

If misshapen structures are any indication evil is afoot in any city we already have that in Stage Center:
