[GagHalfrunt]

Now I've seen it all, something good came out of Arkansas. C'mon Kansas and Kentucky, you can do it too!!

This looks like start of a DNC 2020 campaign strategy. Demons vs Trump.

Like I said earlier, the point would be lost on those they're trying to make it to.

I didn't know demons would battle each other. If I were a religious man I'd believe that Trump is a manifestation of the Devil.

Wow that asshole rep, at the 1:50 mark in the video that got the 10 commandment statue actually said “no one in Arkansas has to worry about this statue being forced upon us”. Holy chit

 

[Hugo Stiglitz]

Really unfair to Satan to compare him to Trump.

 

[Victorian Gray]

Now this is one hilarious way of showing off the importance of secularism within government.

Good looking statute.

Clearly it's all part of the Blood War.

Indulging in the demonic has never benefited anyone.

diablo 3 was pretty cool. Except the bad writing.

 

[Thebobo]

Awesome!

 

[soulcougher73]

Cool looking statue.

Quality craftsmanship

Demons don't exist.

People who emulate them do. I've known a few people who qualify as demons.

And then there's the long tubes filled with demons... you know, people just like the rest of us.

Al Gore aside, demons aren't required because humans provide all the evil we can handle.

Tell that to a meth head.

so 'demon' is just slang for meth?

i've not heard that before, maybe i'm just too old to be so down with modern slang as you.

i was still stuck on 'dope' being used incorrectly.

Ever heard of a person "having their demons?" That's the kind of thing I was referencing.

sorry, but i don't believe in "possessions"

Not even possessions by mind altering drugs? They make a person think the devil told them to...
But, per your argument, Satan is a fictional character. Some would argue that God also is. I just happen to believe that both exist and that some humans are not naturally evil, nor good.

nationalism and religion are used to get people to do horrible things to other people.

 

[Puffnstuff]

What if someone attends the Church of the Suntanned Blonde? Could they get a statue, or live model, on display too? Forcing religion on people is always a bad deal as has been repeatedly demonstrated over multiple millennia.

 

[mikeymikec]

Awesome, I hope the religious right appreciates it.

If by that you mean, "I hope they get the point", I highly doubt they will.

IMO this will be purely seen as an attempt to troll them. I'm not against the placing of this statue by the way, I sincerely hope that the uppity religious types would get the point.

IMO a better tactic would have been legislation to say that if one religion gets represented there, then say 5 other religions get state subsidy to also get statues placed there.

Hey, it serves to remind us that the devil walks among us, even some of you are under his underwear.
