Let’s play a game.

I’ll list some words.

• Love
• Acceptance
• Care
• Friends
• Patience
• Happiness

Now, tell me what religious ideology comes to your mind.

Satanism?

You’re right!

I’ll admit I’ve never put “love” and “demon worship” together.

My bigotry on display.

Then I read this article and I learned Satanism isn’t really about Satan!

Turns out, Satanists are jolly individuals who preach compassion, empathy and justice.

Yeah!  It’s true!

Some Satanists made a coloring book to help teach kids these values.

I guess Lucifer has been misrepresented.

The Bible certainly casts him in unfavorable light.

But it’s simpletons who believe that ancient book of mythology.

A coloring book is a much more trustworthy document.

And this coloring book doesn’t even mention Satan.

It just encourages communication, reason and kindness.

…kinda like the New Testament.

Which makes me wonder…

Granted, I’m a humorless Christian who struggles to understand satire,

so I’m probably going to look foolish for asking but,

Why do these authors oppose teaching Christian values when their own message is almost identical?

Ha Ha!

I’m a dope.

Forget I even asked.

Pass me the crayons.
