More Proof the Devil Is a Democrat: Satanic Group Supports Abortion

Posted on Comments

Planned Parenthood’s gruesome trade in dead baby parts is not the only evidence of the abortion industry’s ghastly evil:

The New York-based “Satanic Temple” is filing a federal lawsuit against Missouri, claiming that state laws restricting abortion violate their “free exercise” of Satanism.
The suit identifies abortion as an essential religious duty for Satanists.
Missouri’s “informed consent” law educates women about the facts of abortion and what’s going on inside her body, and its 72-hour waiting period between initial contact and the major surgery of abortion is intended to give mothers time to think the information over before having irreversible, elective surgical procedure.
The individual that the Satanists are using to bring their lawsuit, “Mary Doe,” went to the St. Louis Planned Parenthood pregnant, and submitted a letter stating that her religious beliefs in Satanism require no informed consent and no waiting period before abortion. . . .
The rise of Satanism among pro-abortionists includes a group of abortion supporters chanted “Hail Satan!” at the Texas statehouse last July, during debate on abortion restrictions. In another instance, a Planned Parenthood supporter who disrupted a city council meeting, yelling, “All Hail Satan” as he was escorted out. . . .
Satanic Temple founder Doug Mesner told Detroit’s Metro Times that he would like to help abolish pro-life laws on the basis of Satanic religious beliefs. He added that gay “marriage” is a Satanic “sacrament.”

Demonic madness grips their evil minds: “God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth” (II Thessalonians 2:11-12 KJV), because they “became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened . . . God gave them over to a reprobate mind” (Romans 1:21, 28 KJV).

Often we find that the “sophisticated” reader is made uncomfortable by this kind of chapter-and-verse citation, because the educated reader expects to encounter only secular rationalism in public discourse. People actually become offended: “How dare you quote that King James stuff at me?” Yet you see how the prophetic authority of the Bible is revealed, because everything keeps happening as the Bible foretells it.

The delusions of those who “believed not the truth” are leading them to destruction. As “the wrath of God is revealed from heaven” (Romans 1:18 KJV), it condemns not only the satanic wickedness of those who celebrate the abortion holocaust, but also our nation as a whole comes under God’s judgment. Our apathy and corruption leads us to tolerate this blood-soaked injustice, making possible this evil in our midst.

Becoming complicit by our silence, we also are at risk of “strong delusion.” Surrounded by cruelty, perversion and dishonesty — so common we scarcely even notice it — life in this sin-filled society presents us with another danger against which the Bible prophetically warns: Even many Christians become confused by “profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called” (I Timothy 6:20-21 KJV) and will be deceived (Matthew 24:24 KJV).

“Especially important is the warning to avoid conversations with the demon. . . . He is a liar. The demon is a liar. He will lie to confuse us. But he will also mix lies with the truth to attack us. The attack is psychological, Damien, and powerful. So don’t listen to him. Remember that — do not listen.”
— The Exorcist (1973)

There is no need to exaggerate the danger, because the danger now is so great that it is impossible to exaggerate it. Satan is among us and the Devil knows his time is short (Revelation 12:12 KJV). Spending the past year and a half researching radical feminism, I have seen over and over the reality of this hideous evil: Young feminists delight in blasphemy even as they are consumed in the suffering of deranged madness.

Everywhere we look now, we see people gripped by “strong delusion.” Contemplating the phenomenon of feminist witchcraft — no, seriously, I’m not making this up — I explained the movement’s history in the final chapter of Sex Trouble:

Women’s Studies professors were among those who promoted this modern revival of witchcraft. On Mother’s Day 1989, Boston University professor Mary Daly organized a theatrical event she called “The Witches Return” which concluded with the assembled cast on stage chanting, “Power to the witch and to the woman in me!”

Crazy? Of course, it’s crazy, but the lunatics who believe this are esteemed professors, and their evil madness is part of the university curriculum. It’s actually in textbooks now.

“In the early twenty-first century, many women participate in revivals of ancient woman-centered religions. . . Wicca, or witchcraft . . . is a Goddess- and nature-oriented religion whose origins predate both Judaism and Christianity. Current Wiccan practice involves the celebration of the feminine, connection with nature, and the practice of healing. As Wiccan practitioner Starhawk suggests, witchcraft encourages women to be strong, confident, independent and to love the Goddess, the earth, and other human beings.”
— Susan M. Shaw and Janet Lee, Women’s Voices, Feminist Visions (fifth edition, 2012)

Do you see that this is not some kind of marginal “extreme” feminism? These women are not obscure figures — they are both tenured professors on the faculty of the department of Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at Oregon State University — and their book is not a shabby project published by a fringe radical cult. Women’s Voices, Feminist Visions is published by McGraw-Hill, which calls it a “leading introductory women’s studies reader.” On the back cover of this 677-page textbook is praise from Utah State University professor Camille Odell, who calls Women’s Voices, Feminist Visions “my top choice for my introductory class in women and gender.” A brand-new copy of the sixth edition sells for $123.42 at Amazon, where it is ranked the #2 bestseller in Gender Studies textbooks and #16 in Feminist Theory.

Are we surprised that the Satanic Temple is campaigning for abortion rights in America, when feminist professors have made witchcraft part of the curriculum at state universities? As I struggled to make sense of this, a famous Old Testament commandment came to mind: “See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil . . . therefore choose life” (Deuteronomy 30:15, 19, KJV). And that’s why I concluded Sex Trouble with this paragraph:

We must choose life and, having made our choice, we must pray for divine protection in our struggle against the forces of Death and Evil. You may not believe in witchcraft, but the witches do. And when feminists gather in their covens, you can be sure that they are not praying to the God of Life and Good.

Be afraid, America. Be very afraid.

  3. Wicca is not “ancient”–it was invented in the 20th century, and is a hodge-podge of mostly New Age claptrap, with little connection to ‘classical’ witchcraft, except in some of its trappings.

    (Yes, surprise, feminists sorta just make things up as they go along.)

  4. My only quibble with this essay is the interpretation of Matthew 24:24:

    For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. (Emphasis added).

    The words “if it were possible” are in the subjunctive and indicate that the delusions and falsehoods will be so pernicious, that the faithful will be tempted. Fortunately, our faith will remain strong and it is not possible for true Christians to succumb to the deception.

    Other than that, spot on as usual. Truly we are living in the “times of Noah.”

  5. Sort of like the “burning times” myth, where 1000s of women were burned at the stake for witchcraft on a daily basis for several centuries in Europe without there being any contemporary evidence of it in any text whatsoever.

  10. Yeah this is perfect. Say you worship Satan and you can kill your child with no further ado. And they are calling the woman ‘Mary’.

  11. Did I say they were the same thing?

    However, they are both based in a rejection of God and hatred toward those who believe in God.

    You know. Like Democrats.

  12. Theologically speaking, of course he’s a democrat — especially one that promotes absolute rule by absolute majorities, with no guardrails and no subjects out of bounds. Sir Thomas More had something to say about it, more than 100 years ago in a form of English we today would find hard to understand (because it’s grammatical and properly punctuated).

  13. Just remember who you are dealing with. This is a man whose question you may answer, but if it isn’t thee answer he wants or likes, you didn’t answer the question.

  17. Says he, whose view of witchcraft is based upon hours studying Elizabeth Montgomery and Agnes Moorehead.

  18. I think you meant the characters on the sitcom, not the actors.

    I distinguish between reality and fiction. It makes my life work better you see.

  19. I see that our esteemed host has responded, but I feel compelled to point out that you’re engaging in straw man argumentation.

  20. You tend to disagree with pretty much everything, so, pray tell: what specifically do you disagree with?

  22. More proof that Christian Crusaders are just as bad as Muslim Jihadists.
    Abortion is a couple’s choice to be made or not.
    It is not within your fairy tale book of twisted beliefs & fantasies to decide or IMPOSE ON OTHERS.

  23. No, not a straw man.

    What I’d like to point out is that if you keep throwing people you don’t agree with into the “Them” pile, you’re going to run out of people in the “Us” pile.

    And no, I don’t include myself in your “Us” pile.

    Disagreements happen. People should decide if they want a Grand Crusade where every one agrees (or is afraid to disagree) and nothing gets done. Or maybe where you go for the smaller battles that you can win, instead of waiting for perfection.

  24. Dismissing people because they share a label with those you do not agree with.

    Clumping labels together because you believe that all groups NOT YOURS are automatically evil and not to be trusted.

    I’m also for life, liberty, and a really good three day party.

  25. Nice way of trying to disqualify people that stand opposed to your depravity. You are more like the jihadi and you certainly aren’t Christian.

    Abortion is death for the child. It ain’t a fish, it’s a human and you are killing the child for the sake of personal convenience. That’s murder you are imposing on the child. That’s not “a fantasy or twisted belief.” That’s simply reality.

  26. I’m sure you’ll be happy to know that many Wiccans think the same about Christianity.

    Why should you care?

    Exactly.

    Why should they care what you think about them?

  30. Planned Parenthood knows it’s reality. Obviously they do, because they’re selling human body parts from the humans that they murder.

  31. Some of us have known all along that abortion and gay marriage are Satanic sacraments.

    Interesting, too, that the same people who mock Christianity don’t seem to have any problem whatsoever with Satanism.

  32. Since SJWs always lie, clearly they must worship the father of lies in their hearts. But it was just today that I noticed the parallel between “you shall be like God” and “everyone is the same.”

  35. Fine, don’t impose your personal beliefs about murder and theft on me. As long as I’m not murdering or robbing you or yours, just stay the hell out of my business.

  36. On all counts of your statement you have no idea what your talking about.
    At least the raging Randroid Atheists one typically encounters on the interwebz can construct a logical argument, your comment on the other hand is sloppy and trollish.

  37. Yes, a straw man. You stated “Wicca is not Satanism.” RSM’s article nowhere made that statement. On the other hand, Wicca shares many similarities with Satanism; to deny that is to deny reality.

    Also, if one never makes any sort of distinction between beliefs–exercising judgment about what is true and what is false–then one will fall prey to all sorts of error, such as believing that there are as many “truths” as there are people. There are people with which “we” can never be allies. Between Christians on the one hand, and Satanists and Wiccans on the other “a great chasm has been fixed.” I invite them to cross over to this side, but I shall never go to theirs.

    John 14:6 – Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”

    There are not many “ways” (unless you mean many ways to perdition). There is one. And neither Satanism nor Wicca are it.

  38. Satanists claim abortion is their sacrament.

    Wiccan feminists think that men are an evil to be eliminated.

    You would have us make common cause with them? What common cause do we have? None.

  39. I don’t much care what Wiccan’s think about Christianity. I care about truth. Wicca is to truth as dark is to light.

  40. Anyone who’s been paying attention knows by this point that truth is simply not a priority for leftists of any type. If it happens to advance their cause, they’ll speak truth. If, as much more likely, it does not, they will lie without a hint of remorse.

  41. The “Satanic Temple” aren’t “Satanists” in any real sense — they’re Dawkins fanboy-atheists trolling Christians.
    The LaVeyite Satanists are a whole other kettle o’ fish. Very few of them qualify as “Leftists” or even “Liberals” in any sense of the word; the ones I’ve met are nearly always either Libertarians or White Power-racist types.

  42. True wiccans do not worship Satan but they might as well be the end result is the same

  43. Doesn’t matter what wiccans think there is their made up narcissistic “faith” and then there is the One True God

  44. FYI I can’t even bring myself to capitalize “wicca’. Unlike Mr Neo…I pretty much know or met everyone who brought that sad excuse of a religion to the public. It really is all about worshiping an idealized version of oneself

  45. And funny how the thing they use to trash Christianity is their idea that “It didn’t happen! Christ was invented! It was all made up!” And yet, they don’t have a problem with people worshipping another character from the Bible.

    It all comes down to chaos (and always of the sexual variety). The left hates Christianity because it demands decent behavior, and they love Satanism because it pushes indulgence.

  46. What you’re missing is that a huge percentage of Satanists don’t worship Satan. It’s merely a symbol of nature as a god – same as Wicca.

    The goat of Mendes is a pagan symbol; same paganism (Western European).

    Wicca and Satanism are offshoots of the same vine. Satanists are just pagans that wanted to spit in the face of the Church, so they adopted the villain from the Christianity.

  47. And creepy. I met one at a party once and really wanted a bottle of holy water. I went to my parents house and got a rosary; the only holy water there is a family relic from my great-grandparents journey to this country.

  48. Because they falsely see us as scolds, RKae. They think we’re saying “You’re a bad person and you’re going to hell! Jesus hates you!” when really we’re saying “Stop! You’re about to walk off a cliff and be killed! I beg of you, please stop before it’s too lat……”

  49. You know, I used to think that adherents of the Flying Spaghetti Monster were harmless — but when you put it that way, they’re basically just Satanists with a veneer of whimsy over the venom.

  50. Exactly!

    The story of “Let he who is without sin cast the first stone” ends with Jesus telling the adulterous woman to “Go and sin no more.”

    It shows us that telling someone to stop sinning is not the same thing as throwing rocks; it’s the opposite of throwing rocks!

    When people say “You’re a hater!” ask them, “When Jesus told the adulterous woman ‘Go and sin no more,’ was that hate? Did he hate her?”
