Well @ evilbrain1, everyone has the right to express their views and I just did mine. I believe the statue is grotesque and it shouldn't have been made to see the light of day. |

Utter rubbish |
This July 6, 2015, file photo provided by The Satanic Temple
shows the sculpture an 8½-foot-tall bronze monument
featuring Satan was cast from in New York.
In a sense, the statue is a stress test of American
plurality: at what point does religious freedom make
the people uncomfortable?
A little before midnight on Saturday, a crowd of around 700
gathered in an old industrial warehouse a few blocks from
the Detroit River for what they’d been told was the “largest
public satanic ceremony in history.” Most of them professed
to be adherents of Satanism, that loosely organized squad of
the occult that defines itself as a religious group. Others
came simply because they were curious. After all, Satanists
exist in the popular psyche as those who casually sacrifice
goats and impregnate Mia Farrow with Lucifer’s child; if this
ceremony was indeed unprecedentedly big, who knew what
could be in store?
The reality of the event — and of the contemporary Satanic
movement at large — was tamer, and, if the Facebook
pictures speak the truth, harmlessly festive: a cross between
an underground rave and a meticulously planned Halloween
party. They were there to publicly unveil a colossal bronze
statue of Baphomet, the goat-headed wraith who, after
centuries of various appropriations, is now the totem of
contemporary Satanism. The pentagram, that familiar logo
of both orthodox Satanists and disaffected teens, originated
as a rough outline of Baphomet’s head.
The statue itself is impressive: almost nine feet tall, and
weighing in at around a ton. The horned idol sits on a throne
adorned with a pentagram, but it is the idol’s wings, and not
his chair, that curiously evoke the Iron Throne from a
certain celebrated HBO fantasy series. He has the jarring
horns of a virile ram but the biceps of a guy who lifts four or
five times a week. His legs, which are crossed, end not in
feet but in hooves. It might seem more menacing if not for
the two bronze-statue children standing on either side of
him — a girl on his left; a boy on his right; both are looking
up at him earnestly.
“Baphomet contains binary elements symbolizing a
reconciliation of opposites, emblematic of the willingness to
embrace, and even celebrate differences,” Jex Blackmore,
who organized the unveiling, told TIME late Sunday night. In
a sense, the statue is a stress test of American plurality: at
what point does religious freedom make the people
uncomfortable?
Blackmore directs the Detroit chapter of the Satanic Temple,
one of the few coherent organizations in a field that’s
otherwise disorganized and dogmatically nebulous. The
Satanic Temple has chapters in Florida and Finland, in Italy
and Minneapolis. Its headquarters are in New York, but the
Detroit office is its first and largest outpost. Blackmore —
who, by the way, uses a pseudonym for safety reasons —
grew up in the Detroit metropolitan area and returned to the
city to work with the Satanic Temple after attending a lecture
on Satanism at Harvard.
Asked whether her group is a religious organization (or
rather an anti-religious organization) she explains that it’s
less of a church and more of an affinity group, built around
what she repeatedly refers to as “Satanic principles.” It’s not
the dogma you might expect. To quote from the group’s
website:
The Satanic Temple holds to the basic premise that undue
suffering is bad, and that which reduces suffering is good.
We do not believe in symbolic “evil.”
Most vitally, though, the group does not “promote a belief in
a personal Satan.” By their logic, Satan is an abstraction, or,
as Nancy Kaffer wrote for The Daily Beast last year, “a
literary figure, not a deity — he stands for rationality, for
skepticism, for speaking truth to power, even at great
personal cost.”
Call it Libertarian Gothic, maybe — some darker
permutation of Ayn Rand’s crusade for free will. One
witnesses in the Satanic Temple militia a certain knee-jerk
reaction to encroachments upon personal liberties,
especially when those encroachments come with a crucifix
in hand. The Baphomet statue is the Satanic Temple’s defiant
retort du jour.
“We chose Baphomet because of its contemporary relation
to the figure of Satan and find its symbolism to be
appropriate if displayed alongside a monument
representing another faith,” Blackmore said.
The monument she refers to is a six-foot marble slab
engraved with the Ten Commandments, controversially
situated on the grounds of the Oklahoma State Capitol. In
2012, state representative Mike Ritze fronted $10,000 out of
his own pocket to have the marker installed in the shadow
of the capitol’s dome, prompting the ire of those who
believed it flagrantly violated the separation of church and
state. The American Civil Liberties Union sued the state of
Oklahoma; the Satanic Temple fought fire with fire. If the
Christians could chisel their credo onto public property, the
argument went, why couldn’t they?
The state didn’t agree, and rejected the Satanic Temple’s
petition to place Baphomet’s statute on legislative property.
The point is now moot, though: a month ago, the Oklahoma
Supreme Court ruled that the Ten Commandments
monument violated the state constitution, a judgment that
will probably stick in spite of an obstinate governor.
It seems there are battles left to fight, though. A Detroit
pastor described the unveiling of the statue as “a welcome
home party for evil.” A Catholic activism group in the city
actively encouraged people to attend mass at a local
cathedral to speak out against the statue — a pray-in, if you
will. Meanwhile, Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson recently
signed a bill that will put the Ten Commandments on a
similar monument on the grounds of the State Capitol in
Little Rock. The Satanic Temple may be planning a road trip.
