This just shows you the depth of ignorance that people can stoop to. As if Detroit was not an appropriate enough example itself of the results of evil! People then have to stand in its crumbling ruins and give homage to Satan!
A Satanic organisation have unveiled a controversial 9ft statue in Detroit – following an attempt to have it installed near a 10 Commandments monument in Oklahoma.
The Satanic Temple unveiled the bronze Baphomet sculpture just before midnight to cheers of: “Hail Satan.”
Hundreds attended the display, with many supporters posing for photos with the statue, which has a human body, goat’s head and wings.
Statues of a boy and a girl in poses of adoration stand on either side.
But the unveiling sparked protests from Christians, with one pastor branding it a ‘welcome home party for evil’.
The group unsuccessfully applied to have the statue placed near a monument to the 10 Commandments installed on the Oklahoma State Capitol grounds in 2012.
The Oklahoma Supreme Court recently ruled the Biblical memorial violates a section of the state constitution that bans the use of state property for the benefit of a religion.
Jex Blackmore, director of the Satanic Temple Detroit chapter, said temple members now plan to transport the sculpture to Arkansas, where earlier this year the governor signed a bill authorising another 10 Commandments monument, Reuters reported.The location of the one-tonne Baphomet statue was kept secret until the last minute to avoid planned demonstrations against the unveiling.
It was revealed at an industrial building near the Detroit River just before 11.30pm yesterday.
About 50 Christians prayed for the city and denounced the monument outside a business where the Satanic Temple previously tried to display the statue.
Reverend Dave Bullock, a pastor at Greater St Matthew Baptist Church, Michigan, said: “The last thing we need in Detroit is having a welcome home party for evil.”
That “thing” is the ugliest thing I have ever seen. Who in their right mind would even consider worshiping the atrocity?But I suppose these folks aren’t in their right minds.
These people are the post modernists who want to thumb their nose at Christians in any public way possible! In fact many of them blame American Christians for the rubble and destruction that is Detroit!
Because many Christians have a conservative outlook and have a tendency of voting for Conservative Political Candidates! Modern Satanism is paganism. It believes in worshiping the created instead of the Creator!
In their hatred of Capitalism they have become blind to what the Bible actually teaches in regards to the environment: That we should be good stewards. Not as a form of paganism but out of a sense of taking care of what we have been given!
The Majority of Conservative American Christianity for decades latched on to American Capitalism and clung on to it through its worst recent decades: the 90’s & the early part of the 21 century. Much of “Christian” preaching at this time was false teaching: “God wants me to be Rich” and when the economy crashed in 2008 people found out that what these people taught and preached was nothing more than re-packaged pyramid schemes!
Read what David Wilkerson had to say in regards to this kind of false teaching and how it had infected the AOG:

Sadly this kind of teaching has “dumbed down” and decimated Christianity in the U.S.
It taught a “Heaven Now” false Theology!
