    No, I’m literally saying the opposite. I have no idea how you got that from what I said.

      You said that your daughter didn’t start a special interest group because she was shy. Similarly, 8 or 9 year old kids probably didn’t seek out the local chapter of the Satanists. Someone told them to do this.

      I don’t think that any religion should be doing that.

        Got it. You didn’t read my entire post. I’ll help you out:

        If my shitty private elementary school existed now and I knew about those clubs by the time I was in fifth or sixth grade, I would have formed one because I wasn’t shy.

            Fucking Christ. Did you not even read what I pasted from my original post?

                You didn’t disagree with me. Your question showed an ignorance of what I said.

                Me: “If my shitty private elementary school existed now and I knew about those clubs by the time I was in fifth or sixth grade”

                You: “How would you have known about the Satanists when you were in fifth grade?”

                I literally said I didn’t know about the clubs. I also wouldn’t know about TST because they were founded in 2012 and, believe it or not, I’m not 12 years old.

                So since you really need an answer to your silly question, I wouldn’t have known about The Satanic Temple or the After School Satan Club when I was in fifth grade because I wasn’t in fifth grade last year.

                  I’m saying that you wouldn’t have known about the Satanists or any other religion unless an adult told you about it. I’m opposed to preaching to kids.

                  I’m also a parent (though my kids aren’t yet at school age) and I’m frustrated with how public schools have become a battleground for the political gain of warring groups. A Satanist after school club is another example.

                  You mentioned that you went to private school. I also went to a Catholic private school until third grade so I understand your frustration with them.

                    Have you heard of this thing called the Internet?
