Satanic Church Unveils Baphomet Statue in Detroit to the Delight of Onlookers

(Before It's News)

A crowd of several hundred gathered Saturday night to see Detroit’s newest resident: A 9-foot, 2,000-pound statue of a goat-headed occult idol named Baphomet.

The Satanic Temple unveiled the bronze figure to an estimated 700 attendees at an undisclosed location. The group’s initial venue canceled after local religious groups protested.

The group’s approach to secrecy with the second venue led to little opposition on Saturday, Director of the Detroit Satanic Temple chapter and national spokeswoman Jex Blackmore told Fox News.

“Protesters arrived for a short time at our first ticketing location, but retreated after only about 30 minutes,” Blackmore said. “One woman attempted to block the event entrance and was removed by the police in cooperation with the building’s owner. “

Guests were washed in red light shining down from the rafters at the venue as “dark punk” bands played and DJs performed from a stage located beneath a lighted, upside-down crucifix. Satanic Temple officials delivered speeches and a pair of shirtless men held candles on either side of the statue, prior to its unveiling.

  • Wow. They did this again? I thought they just did this same unveiling of same statue a couple months ago? And they just did this again?

    Thank you.

    What did I just say about the worship of this God, to folks on thread, ‘Every Human Being faces decision, read before 9/25/15′… just a short while ago?

    All have been taught to worship this God, in church, by priests, nuns, pastors, ministers, priestesses, preachers, teachers, and governments all over the world. This God is the one and only God of SATAN’S MONOTHEISM; most Americans and Europeans who are Christian laypeople will not accept this as true, but I can prove it to you all. It is not hard to show and prove, but it is apparently too hard for you to accept.

    One God, Achad, Three forms, (or more). Same principles.
    Remember, Satan The God of This World, is after your (each and every one of you) soul/spirit/mind/emotions AND HE IS A MASTER MANIPULATOR of such,
    as well as being a Master of Disguises.

    It is your weakness as humans have been trained to be protective of their pride and egotism which prevents you from even entertaining that this is the situation, that this has been done, TO YOU.

    ‘No, not to ME!’ you say. See? See, what did I just say to you. Egotistic pridefulness over truth and research anc acceptance of facts.

    it is your decision. And you will live with it for as long as you are allowed to.

    Medical profession use what all the kids call “satanic’ of luciferian symbol of course Lucifer is the serpent. Behold the rod Asclepius but really it is the same Caduceus coming out of Satan’s crotch. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rod_of_Asclepius

    • You know what? I saw it, but ‘didn’t see it’ you know what I mean? it bothered me, that and all of it, but I didn’t consciously say to myself, ‘look, there is the rod of asclepius’ which is his penis/DNA procreation tool.

      Thank you All Roads for pointing this very significant (pregnant with signif) picture painted for us out!

      But of course, it is a picture of our DNA inhabited by another entity/ies. Not just the double helix two stranded DNA, the medical symbol of a third strand, or a strong middle ‘pole’ within OUR 2-stranded helix as created in the original man and woman, to me, perfectly describes what happened in the garden of eden to Eve’s baby, Cain.

      And to know that from the bible preachers never even touch upon this dirty deed… floors me. Especially since it is a thread runs all thru the bible from Genesis to Revelation! ? wth… (because the only answer to this studiously ignoring the subject of genetic infiltration could be that it IMPLICATES THEM AS PRIESTS OF THEIR FATHER) … otherwise, they would say it/just teach the words in the bibles.

      But no, they won’t… because those words would

      (if they didn’t change course entirely and who it is they are worshipping and do the deeds of/carry out the goals of)

      CONDEMN THEM ALL!!!!!!!! Very highly entertaining, they are. Every last one of those liars in sheeps clothing is so entirely transparent. Except to their blind flocks they are not. Pulled the wool over the flocks’ eyes, all the poor people have no f’ing clue.

      why? Magic, ritual, and influence/oppression/possession by a very deceitful set of spirits which blind them to truths righht in front of their eyes.

      Magic is power, power over humanity – We have to fight against its effects on us. But if we have no clue we are the target by our leadership in church/education/society/governmental authorities (all use it)
      then … who is going to know they must fight against its effects on them?

      if one doesn’t know … one is a victim. But if one doesn’t WANT to know, one is a victim and has himself to blame as well as the perpetrators. We are willingly ignorant I would say, most of the time, caring only to PROTECT our own sense of well-being, no matter how FALSE THAT SENSE OF WELL-BEING IS.

      Wow. How genius is Satan? And his ministers here on earth, who are our own chosen, appointed, public-approved MASTERS.

      Thanks again for that, look everyone: the Medical/’Healing’ symbol (of snakes no less, how more clear can you get?

      is shown to us clearly as also as progenitors. In other words, your Dad.(dies). Who is your Daddy?

  • How shocking! Now, who’d have ever dreamed there could be such evil, in this best of all possible Godly nation?

    Sorry to burst anybody’s bubble, but there’s nothing new under the sun here, as the likes of the three stooges of antiquity were worshiping Baal, therefore these also-rans in Detroit a bit late to the party and suffering a dire lack of originality. Besides, morons need art, too. Yawn…

    Ecclesiastes 2:11 Then I looked on all the works that my hands had wrought, and on the labour that I had laboured to do: and, behold, all was vanity and vexation of spirit, and there was no profit under the sun.

    Proverbs 1:22 How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge?

    Pslams 92

    4 For thou, LORD, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in the works of thy hands.
    5 O LORD, how great are thy works! and thy thoughts are very deep.
    6 A brutish man knoweth not; neither doth a fool understand this.
    7 When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; it is that they shall be destroyed for ever:
    8 But thou, LORD, art most high for evermore.
    9 For, lo, thine enemies, O LORD, for, lo, thine enemies shall perish; all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.

    Job 24

    17 For the morning is to them even as the shadow of death: if one know them, they are in the terrors of the shadow of death.
    18 He is swift as the waters; their portion is cursed in the earth: he beholdeth not the way of the vineyards.
    19 Drought and heat consume the snow waters: so doth the grave those which have sinned.
    20 The womb shall forget him; the worm shall feed sweetly on him; he shall be no more remembered; and wickedness shall be broken as a tree.

  • Is there a problem here? To my mind this grotesque statue is no more offensive than say the statue-of-liberty or christ-the-redeemer. Scripture sure doesn’t make a distinction when it comes to idolatry.

    • Obviously you have a tendency to comment when u b gettin u drink on. :shock:

      • Did you have a point, JMIX, because while i’m not teetotal i wouldn’t drink one beer per month on average?

        Does Baphomet offend you? Well consider that a monument of the Ten Commandments offends the Satanists and who are you, or i for that matter, to enforce our beliefs upon others?

        • Well said, Mayhem.

          The Satanic Temple is a joke of an organization. Nothing more than Christians in reverse.

          • Have you read their manifest, Bill, because there’s far worse than the Satanists out there. I’ve read it and it wasn’t anything like i thought it would be but it turns out being just another collective agreement, er, religion.

          • The Satanic Temple’s manifesto, or LaVey’s Satanic Bible?
            I’ve read the Satanic Bible, a few times. LaVey’s and Gilmore’s teachings make sense to me, because their Satan is a symbol. Nothing more. No gods, beyond man. I don’t go for all of their teachings, but on the spiritual level, I can understand the appeal.
            These Satanic Temple schmucks are nothing more than Evangelical Christians, preaching from the other end of the Christian spectrum. It’s inane posturing, and BS religious indignation. I can’t stand political grandstanding from any religion. I don’t care which one it is.

          • Nah I was more thinking of what i’d learned from specific groups of Satanists. LaVey is a topic of interest, though, and excellent material to compare side by side with Scripture in order to more clearly see that the contrast is exactly 180 degrees. Light and Dark with no middle ground.

            Perhaps i ignored their roots and mostly considered them, personally, instead. For sure it’s just another religion yet our home grown Satanists might be a little more PC than the Temple variety. I dunno.

  • Art? Deception. Detroit is a Satanic magnet it seems.
