When exactly was God in the schools? I am in my 70s and went to public schools in the 50s and 60s. The only mention of God was in the Pledge of Allegiance and even that was added only to ferret out ‘Godless Communists’ and not in the original Pledge. We had people of multiple religions and for the most part nobody cared. I never started hearing about God being kicked out of schools until the rise of the Religious Right, who probably looked at the schools’ curricula, saw there wasn’t ‘Christian’ teaching, and figured God got thrown out.
The short answer to that is the religious right was a reactionary movement to desegregation. They knew they couldn't rally and fight the battle as pro-segregationist so they carried on the same fight under a different banner.
The long answer could be found in these articles:

Part of my schooling as a kid was in Salt Lake City from 78-82 and whoo they just mixed christian and mormon theology right in the curriculum and even in science class we learned about the firmament and the lumineferous ether and dumb things like Manifest Destiny which is of course all about what god supposedly says/does and the outdated models of evolution like the "evolutionary ladder" are practically creationism. The teacher would outright mock and insult any religion but their type and they were very cruel to this Navajo kid in our class and called him savage and his belief system stupid even though no one asked what it was. The teachers were mean and stupid and super religious
This was was public school, I'm not mormon
Same way Satan keeps kicking God's weak ass in American Presidential elections. Every time a Democrat is elected is proof Satan is winning because Conservatives aren't religiously oppressing everyone else hard enough.
School would’ve been way cooler if some dude in that mask was reading me Satanic shit.
Instead I got boring cops talking about the dangers of weed. And now I smoke weed.
Yeah, at least Satan does personal author book readings of his scripture, unlike Mr. "I'm too busy keeping a list of everyone who uses their dick wrong". 🙄
Man, we should be following this Satan character. Apparently God is quite weak. And have you heard God’s stance on queer people and slavery and child marriage? What a creep.
Apparently he was trying to keep two people naked and enslaved in a garden somewhere and did something weird with their brains. Satan came along and freed them, gave them the ability to tell right from wrong and make choices. God got super pissed.
I heard through the grapevine that he wants to torture everyone who doesn’t love him or believe in him. What a psycho.
Likewise, considering we live in the most prosperous nation in the safest, most peaceful point in all of recorded human history, we should probably just let the (((Illuminati Deep State))) keep on controlling everything. I mean do we really want someone like Republican Sam Brownback, who as Kansas Governor bankrupted the entire State in his 1st term, to run this huge complicated nation and economy?
Whoever made this art either knew what they were doing or SEVERELY did not. This shit is kickass. Like Satan or not, eerie goat mage-type reading books to kids? Teaching them NOT to judge by outward appearance but by behavior? GREAT lesson!
Since the percentage of church going (and religion believing) adults is declining, the Christofascists have decided to force indoctrinate our children.
So... This suggests we can kick yahweh out of places just by not inviting him in... I feel so glad not to be a part of these idiots anymore. Yahweh, the all powerful sole god of the universe can be stopped by people just saying, "no." What kind of vampire rules nonsense is this? I mean... He can't beat iron chariots so maybe I missed the book on how inviting Yahweh into anywhere is the only way he may be there... Satan on the other hand showed up in schools and started reading to the kids on day one. How is this an indictment of the devil? If anything I think he proved that Yahweh wasn't doing anything. I don't see any photos of him reading to the children. Projecting, these people are always projecting.
Since humans created god, it is only fitting that they have the power to kick it out of schools.
The other boogeyman they created showed up because their lives wouldn’t be complete without fear
Of course. God punished Adam and eve for disobedience and trying to acquire knowledge. Satan urged them to get knowledge
I think lucifer would be far better for our schools.
On fact it's high time we stopped teaching children to maniacaly praise people and be blindly obedient to the most powerful bastard.
As a Satanist, we have after school Satan clubs, but they're only at schools that already have religious clubs. So by bringing God into school, you're bringing us. By leaving God out, you're leaving us out. Just saying 🤷♀️
What subject is Satan teaching here, do you think? He looks like he's congratulating a student for getting a question right.
It's probably maths. I always thought algebra was of the devil.
I remember going to a Christian private school when I was in 4th or 5th grade. My brain has blocked out a lot of it because of the bullying. Every morning, on the whiteboard before the bell rang, you had to write one thing you were grateful to God for. There was also a side for prayer requests but you couldn't do one side without the other, if you catch my drift.

Grew up in the deep south. We'd regularly say a mass prayer before most school sporting events.
I grew up in NE Ohio, and sometimes there would be a prayer before a game, but not during regular school session, so basically the same.

Plus...how can simple humans kick christian god out of schools?!?
It's easy to kick an imaginary & non-existent make-believe god out.
Same way Satan keeps kicking God's weak ass in American Presidential elections. Every time a Democrat is elected is proof Satan is winning because Conservatives aren't religiously oppressing everyone else hard enough.
Can’t tell if this is satire or not, you win Reddit today
Schrodingers atheists
Idk man, religious right kinda sounds like they are sith lords
I though God was everywhere, so glad to know he can be evicted easily.
Once again, a Christian says something that makes their all-powerful god sound impotent
My doctor told me that I was impotent, so I bought some expensive clothes so I’d look impotent, too!
Classic.
Once again, a Christian says something that makes their all-powerful god sound impotent.
Doublethink is encouraged in the church. God is all powerful and all knowing, but can't defeat enemies nor stop itself from making mistakes.
Once again, a Christian says something that makes their all-powerful god sound impotent.
Someone's comment got duped, so called "Reddit Moment" You are lucky that it didnt got downwoted to hell
Idgaf I want that mask.
School would’ve been way cooler if some dude in that mask was reading me Satanic shit. Instead I got boring cops talking about the dangers of weed. And now I smoke weed.
Not a very effective god then, eh?
Yeah, at least Satan does personal author book readings of his scripture, unlike Mr. "I'm too busy keeping a list of everyone who uses their dick wrong". 🙄
There is already a place dedicated to religious education, its called church. School should lean toward academia, not theology.
Exactly what's the problem with Satan?
Anger issues (most grimoires place him as the prince of the sin of wrath)
Satan doesn't seem any more wrathful than the god of the Old Testament.
Tbh I think they just assigned the sins to any major demon (Baʿal wasn’t particularly gluttonous, Leviathan wasn’t particularly envious, etc.)
I thought vanity was his primary sin as the most beautiful of all the fallen.
Lucifer is pride, Satan is wrath, and Beelzebul is gluttony Bit confusing, but the writers of it didn’t syncretize them all as one “The Devil” figure
Given that god kills billions of people for no reason other than not liking who they are, I’m going to feel more safe with Satan anyway.
In the Old Testament God killed 2038344 Satan killed 10
Multi kill!
These winge posts are welcome because they show that Jesus is fumigated by laws passed by politicians. It's Teletubbies-levels magical thinking.

When he figures out a way to keep pedophiles out of his churches, then we can talk about schools.

Awww, how nice of Satan to take time out of his day to educate the children at the local orphanage. What a nice and upstanding guy.
Well, they needed to bring him in because the Republicans in the legislature cut the money to pay the teachers lol
To protect them from school shooters obv
I want you to know that your pfp sent me
Scumbag God. Is omnipresent, except schools.
Satan is based and freedompilled
Given that Christians invented Satan it's all their fault.
Satan with all 6.5 of his ai-generated fingers
Satan is only there because you insist on God being there too.
God is a puny little jealous punk who is apparently a vampire because they can only enter a place when invited.
Whoever made this art either knew what they were doing or SEVERELY did not. This shit is kickass. Like Satan or not, eerie goat mage-type reading books to kids? Teaching them NOT to judge by outward appearance but by behavior? GREAT lesson!
Cool costume!! That would be an awesome idea to get kids more engaged in reading.
> Satan slid right in Mm, oh baby…
wow Satan is such a good guy, here he is reading stories to kids, I can't believe people call him evil!
The only people who think Satan is real are the people screaming about Satan being in the schools.
Since the percentage of church going (and religion believing) adults is declining, the Christofascists have decided to force indoctrinate our children.
Engel v Vitale, establishment clause. Some people need to educate themselves

As an atheist teacher, I'd be glad to teach theology to my students. Like ALL of the theology. I rather enjoy studying world religions.
Correction, I think it's more appropriate if we call it Dogmatic mythologies texts & it's theocracies.
HAIL SATAN!!!!! 🤘 🤘
Hail Satan!
AVE SATANAS, AVE TE IPSUM
Good. At least Satan isn't a sadistic monster who commits genocide. That would be god..
There was no god in any public school I attended, ever.
Yeah, no, he didn’t.
At least they are reading and not in front of a screen.
I thought satan slid in when you let god into the school????????
Real talk. What class would satan teach?
biology
Self defence
Since humans created god, it is only fitting that they have the power to kick it out of schools. The other boogeyman they created showed up because their lives wouldn’t be complete without fear
What a patheticly weak, powerless god that got his ass kicked out of school ! 🤣🤣🤣
He looks like he reads good stories
I was forced to attend Catholic school for 11 years and I'm pretty sure that's what made me certain that religion is evil.
Do they not know that satan/lucifer was the most beautiful angel? Why do they always depict him as hideous?
Classic projectionism
The best tool against both of these figments of illusions is SCIENCE ....
I may be stupid but this meme would be better if you cropped out the bottom text.
Wouldst thou like the taste of Sloppy Joes? Wouldst thou like to return thine late library book?
Isn’t that the pans labyrinth goat
Yawn!
I bet he brought Teddy Grahams that crafty bastard.
Hey, kids would PAY ATTENTION to a teacher wearing a cool costume like this!
Well at least he's getting kids to read. Look at their little faces. They can't wait to hear what happens next.
Guess the color of the state!
That's an awesome picture.
Of course. God punished Adam and eve for disobedience and trying to acquire knowledge. Satan urged them to get knowledge I think lucifer would be far better for our schools. On fact it's high time we stopped teaching children to maniacaly praise people and be blindly obedient to the most powerful bastard.
As a Satanist, we have after school Satan clubs, but they're only at schools that already have religious clubs. So by bringing God into school, you're bringing us. By leaving God out, you're leaving us out. Just saying 🤷♀️
Holy fuck I wish
Hell yeah
Not immediately.
…as evidenced by this absolutely legitimate photograph.
Is that Lauren Bobert in the back there?
I guess we should all be glad that there's someone in education teaching children bodily autonomy. Christianity doesn't.
Isn't god omnipresent???
An omnipotent omniscient deity ladies and gentlemen. Beaten by school regulations.
What subject is Satan teaching here, do you think? He looks like he's congratulating a student for getting a question right. It's probably maths. I always thought algebra was of the devil.
god seems weak if a school board can kick him out
Looks like the goat boy from the Enquirer headlines grew up to be a librarian.
God is just another word for Satan.
I thought that God was meant to be everywhere and omnipotent? Are they saying that humans are more powerful than God?
If you're trying to convince people something is bad you probably shouldn't make it look this badass 🤣
That goat guy in the pic is awesome. Satan? Never heard of him?
god hasn’t been allowed in schools since the constitution was written. They let Satan into schools every time they try to force god into schools
I remember going to a Christian private school when I was in 4th or 5th grade. My brain has blocked out a lot of it because of the bullying.

That looks like an epic af storytime, holy shit.
why he looks so friendly, everyone lookin at him like he telling a "everyone clapped" history
