i believe the 20,000 is to do with how well they do. if they receive that much. then it goes into a hall of fame

and yes it gets the community involved in actual big events.
Oh, okay, that makes sense. I was trying to figure out how the 20 grand came into play. It didn't seem like the 20 grand was part of the prizes... and just the wording on it confused me. I was confused if people had to raise 20 grand to even be entered or something... thanks for clearing it up. ^_^

Oh, and an obligatory meme for the thread:

^_^


yeah wording wasnt the best ill admit haha

that meme works well for what does happen. infact TST do kind of do that to show the privilege Christian organisations get over other religions. but this is getting too close to political talk ;P.

The first few pages of this made me actually really chuckle!

It's always concerning when cults come up and to prominence, What's wrong with just trying to be a nice human, following the rules/laws of the land (if you don't like them, find another one :P ) I don't need to question authority or bodies, I pay what I need to and exist, it's a comfortable life
I wish I liked Quests as much as I love AFKing

thats pretty much what the satanic temple wish too.


If that were it I'd imagine they'd just call themselves the nice people society. There are always ulterior motives towards cults and gatherings among people. One of the very underrated group is quakers, mainly fill of philanthropists who were unknown

well for one the satanic temple is an official religion.

you should. then we can actually discuss what the satanic temple is. and actually have a proper discussion.


reading about this religion isnt going to cause harm. so to say you wont even read them due to personal reasons. is very odd especially when you are happy to post that its cult and by the looks of it think the satanic temple is the opposite to being a nice human. which is 100% wrong

" One should strive to act with compassion and empathy toward all creatures in accordance with reason. "
that is the first tenant, whats so bad about that? for personal reasons you dont want to learn about another religion?

however if you are going to post on a thread read the first post at least so you know what its about...

if you are against the religion with 0 knowledge of whats it about im curious as to why you posted in the first place. or even clicked the link to go to the page.

so if you are wanting a discussion to broaden your mind on what the satanic temple is, you are going to have to open your mind a little and your eyes. and do a bit of research first. starting with reading the first page

otherwise its just disrespectful

There are many religions that are cults, the word cult is usually associated with dark magic and extravagant things, by definition, a cult is : a system of religious veneration and devotion directed toward a particular figure or object.

I'm not religious, however I was raised in a religious background. I can appreciate people want, or need for religion however personally it doesn't attract. Why would you only post a few lines and say 'go read the rest' if you weren't willing to engage in conversation here? Are the original lines you posted not enough to engage in debate? I admire their humour in developing the website, however the principles they strive toward are surely what humans as a whole should anyway? My original point, whether I phrased it properly was why do we not just do that anyway? Do I need to join a religion to be a nice person?

Not going to lie, some of the nicest, most generous, kind hearted people I've ever met are all religious. Following principles here that are near identical (as are most religions). What I'm sure is a nice religion, is what I believe humans should be in general, does anyone need to join to be nice?

Although I will ask, if I can't join the illuminati there...how do I join them. Tom Cruise is calling me

so by your own definition the satanic temple is not a cult. as there is no figure or object. if you read the first post you would know this....
are you just trolling?

because they are already posted on the first post.

it seems you are just trolling. as this has nothing to do with the topic.
