That\u2019s just a scary circumstance for us to be in,\u201d he added.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">In actuality, more \u201crights\u201d are being invented out of whole cloth than ever before by liberal bureaucrats and judges at the expense of the majority. The Satanic Temple is organizing to exacerbate that process, kicking Christians while they\u2019re down.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">As usual, the Satan worshipers claim they really don\u2019t worship the dark lord as they attempt to pull the wool over the eyes of the unsuspecting public.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">\u201cThe metaphor of Satan is just as important to a lot of us as it would be to anybody who takes it literally because we grew up in a Judeo-Christian culture,\u201d Greaves said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">\u201cIt really does speak to us in a very pointed and poignant way about our place in our culture and what our affirmative values are \u2026 and, of course, it defines what we oppose: these kinds of theocratic norms and authoritarian structures,\u201d he added.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Greaves has made clear that his Satan-worship cult is firmly opposed to President Donald Trump, and his group is subverting his push to defend Christianity in the country that they originally made great.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">\u201cWe\u2019re obviously on the defensive now,\u201d said Greaves, \u201cand it\u2019s a frightening state of affairs in the US when you have a clearly deranged theocrat like Mike Pence as vice-president and a buffoon like Trump in office, and they\u2019re willing to pander to their evangelical nationalist base.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">He, as is typical of opponents of the President, played the victim despite his organization\u2019s hostile assault on Christianity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">\u201cWhat you don\u2019t see,\u201d he said, \u201cis when I was walking up to the podium, there were a bunch of people with guns loitering about, and they wanted me to know they were there. I ended up speaking with my back to them, which was rather harrowing. I\u2019m kind of puzzled as to why nobody did take a shot, but that was a very clear possibility.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Hail Satan? will debut in the United Kingdom on Aug. 23, as the sick liberals of the fake news media give credit to these creeps for \u201d trying to stop\u201d Trump\u2019s dark age.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Read more at:\u00a0<a style=\"color: #ccffff;\" href=\"https:\/\/bigleaguepolitics.com\/media-and-film-industry-promote-satan-worshipers-as-voice-of-reason-and-humanism-against-christians\/\">BigLeaguePolitics.com<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.naturalnews.com\/2019-08-17-media-and-film-industry-promote-satan-worshipers.html\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Made with the assistance of anti-Christian groups, a new documentary about Satanism is being hailed by the corporate media<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":39262,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[57,25],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-193430","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-the_satanic_salute","category-The_Media"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/193430","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/39262"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=193430"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/193430\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":193434,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/193430\/revisions\/193434"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=193430"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=193430"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=193430"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
