It is usually when men are at their most religious that they behave with the least sense and the greatest cruelty.

I hate the Catholic Church. They should be closed down immediately. Sold up and funds distributed to all the people who have had their lives ruined by this disgraceful, despicable church.

No prayers and no priest saved those children from horrendous abuse. Where was God?

I agree!

Monarchy is an anachronism, fit only for tourism. Lese majeste was always an anachronistic and evil law. Either you respect a person, position, or institution; or you don't. Until Thailand ditches that law, it can never be said to be a truly modern, democratic nation. The previous king was ok-ish I guess, but the current one ...

Having to live in fear like that all your lives must be awful.

Straight out of a Madam Secretary episode 😂

The king and queen of Thailand are poo poo heads. 💩💩👧👨 I never wanted to go to Thailand, and now, I really can’t.

sticks and stones? No a brutal military dictatorships who has threatened HBO TV hosts with imprisonment after declaring him a threat to the Monarchy. This is outrageous, but what the fuck did this activist think was going to happen? This is the same country that arrested people for simply laughing at the Clown Prince's birthday party for his mini poodle called Foo Foo. Anyone who has seen that image knows it is entrapment since it is impossible to not laugh at it. youtu.be/VNwSO_99q_c

Monarchy is the most ridiculous system that exists on this planet, and in the 21st century. Only court fools support this outdated idea.

Fuck the king

Not content with recognition alone, the Noosa Temple of Satan is pushing to have Christian symbols removed from the center, labelling them “an affront to the religious freedoms of other people.”

The group is also seeking to have its spiritual leader, Brother Samael Demo Gorgon, recognized as a chaplain so that he might provide comfort to dying Christians who wish to convert to Satanism.

“I look forward to providing comfort to Satanists when they're in hospital,” Brother Samael said. ... See MoreSee Less

Honestly even though I'm an atheist... that pentagram is wrong and it pisses me off. One corner needs to penetrate the outer circle.

Why not, just one more bunch of fruit cakes🤣

Please please don't become another organised cult.....stay free athiests

Always a good laugh reading about this

There's so much evidence of the ACL especially, not even hiding the fact that they want religious freedom (christian supremacy and privilege) entrenched in society, as well as lobbying to impose their beliefs on society via legislation, rather than just their own believers. I can't see a better way to prove how ridiculous it is to provide pedestals for religion in modern society than what they're doing.There should be no more tax exemptions for advancing the cause of religion, or anything else not 100% public and charitable. They also should not need or have any legislative exemptions to anti discrimination or other laws.We can't even get christian prayers and church services out of our parliaments at the moment, a few councils here and there, but state and federal laugh at petitions to stop the practice.

John Dickson is upset that satanism has been accepted this as a faith? Why doesn’t he just admit that they made it up 😂

Hail Satan

how immature.

The gnashing of teeth, indeed.

Love it keep up the good work

Love it. Give christianity a dose of its own medicine. Christians for the most part, don't support Separation of Church and State. It would be interesting (and hilarious) to see if that changes, if they no longer hold full control. Bring it on I say, just to teach those bloody christians a lesson.

Aren't they mostly atheists pointing out how ridiculous all religions are?

Giving Christians a taste of their own medicine LOL
