Wow…I’m surprised they could manage to get 7 of 9 in OK.

Aww…and I was looking forward to the Satanist’s statue…

Careful moving them.

Oh mannnn! What took the Satanists so long?

Excuse me, I gotta get a new car. I’m tired of walking everywhere.

Huw freaking Cool is that, a statue of a goat deity?

I doubt that Oklahoma would allow it to be set up at the capitol as it is likely to be mistaken for a statue of a state legislator.

Looks like it will be another long week for Right-Wing Looneyland™.

Oklahoma…where the wind comes sweeping down the plains.

Music to my ears.

So proud of you…at least on this one…

Someone must be reading my comments on staff at TPM. I just referenced that I couldn’t remember where the Satanists were doing a counter-attack on the religious freedom narrative by erecting their own statue…and bingo…here it is!!! Amazing. Thanks TPM. I’m not losing my memory after all.

The Constitution is clear that America is a secular nation. It should not be a debate

" Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or
prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of
speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to
assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

Sound familiar?

Ya think?!

Excellent! Good job, you seven robed “tyrants.”

avattoir · June 30, 2015, 6:12pm

Yes, of course, and all that’s fine: but how in heck are people going to know not to covet their neighbors’ asses?

We are a secular liberal leaning left country. The GOP would be well advised to tone down their religious liberty meme before it totally backfires on them. Good for you Oklahoma.

That noise you hear is the gnashing of FauXian teeth…

6 schadenfreude .AhAhAh!

thunderclapnewman · June 30, 2015, 6:28pm

I’m surprised they could count that high.

teenlaqueefa · June 30, 2015, 6:30pm

I live in Kansas, and though we have our share of stupified hicks here, traveling 70 miles to OK is like visiting another country.

It’s scary in fact.

Jeri Ryan does appearances all over!

charliee · June 30, 2015, 6:45pm

Which version of the ten commandments is it? Multiple versions appear in any variation of the Bible.

Welcome to the 21st century, where we are finally actually seeing the division of church and state!
