Police sometimes find evidence of Satanic rituals in some crime scenes...dead or mutilated animals. The Santeria cult is known for that.
The Santerians would never claim to be satanists. not that I know of.

Satanic temples in schools - unbelievable.
Evil people doing what evil people do.

This whole "freedom of religion" was originally the freedom to practice whichever form of Christianity you believed, Catholic, Protestant, Anabaptist, whichever.

Imagine the founding father's reaction to "freedom of religion" being used to bring Satanism into public schools! Of course, the original public schools used the Bible for their textbook.

Much love!

This is the testimony of a woman who was raised in Santeria and she says Santeria involves a lot of voodoo, witchcraft, and "black & white" magic. She is a survivor of SRA (satanic ritual abuse) under this religion. This involved people in high places as well.

IF you want to hear about that part, skip forward to 28 minutes.

That may be her experience, and i don't think she is storying, but yes, there is hoodoo, roots, and the worship of orishas. I dont recall anything considered satanic, and I don't know how old you are but years ago, alot of us when we were kids, and knew no better loved this song about an orisha, and probably sang it. Babalu Aye is the Orisha of sickness- since it is a syncretic religion, he is St. Lazarus. ( You can find many represented as saints. The religion stem from RC, when slaves were brought over, and hid their religion through the pretend worship of RC saints, when in fact, they were worshiping the Orishas

I don't even care to discuss anything with you. You have zero discernment.
It takes discernment to identify what is and what is not satanic
I guess you believe God ordains these practices.
What a dishonest and nasty thing to say.
I'm not discussing anything with a person who defends evil.
Pointing out another mistake or misinformation is now evil? Or is it only evil when it's your misinformation?

Religious liberty was not intended by the founding fathers to entitle "Christians" to persecute people who worship non-Judeo-Christian deities while doing no harm to other human beings.

A "Christian" label can be placed on practically any belief system that doesn't openly defy Jehovah. Enough Christian denominations practicing idolatry existed at the time of the Revolution that the founding fathers were wise to this.

Furthermore, we do serious injury to our God-given freedoms contained and pledged in the Constitution when we venture to enforce, by civil law, the observance of the first 4 articles of the Decalogue!

I have not stated this so emphatically without extraordinary conviction.

Satanic worship, by the way, is not as grievous as worship of the true Creator is glorious.

This would be giving him far too much consideration.

He is, after all, merely a created being and, while he is stirring up quite a ruckus, this only makes the worship of him a more than usual violation of the 2nd commandment.
