Hail, Satan.No, not really. Join us as we talk about the activism of The Satanic Temple (tst), how it's NOT the same as the Church of Satan, and is a mostly non-secular activist society. The Satanic Temple has done quite a bit of work over the years of holding states accountable to the motto, "Separation of Church and State." This episode explores what their charitable works mean for the average American, and how some people may not even realize just what groups are working to advocate for religious freedom in America.Support the show
