The Satanic Temple (TST) has been busy forming After School Satan clubs in elementary schools across the nation. According to The Daily Caller, a variety of states are being targeted this fall, including Florida, Utah, Massachusetts, Louisiana, Arizona and Minnesota. The TST is seeking to establish these clubs in schools as a direct alternative to already active Christian-oriented Good News Clubs, which were established by the Child Evangelism Fellowship — an organization that’s been around since 1937, according to the New York Times. In 2001, in Good News Clubs Vs. Milford, the Supreme Court ruled 6 – 3 in favor of allowing Good News Clubs to be allowed on public school campuses. The court said that “public schools must open their doors to after-school religious activities.” The Satanic Temple claims that satanic after school clubs should also be authorized under the same Constitutional ruling. Will this new initiative soon be a part of the common core curriculum?
