As expected

Yesterday, we noted how some thin-skinned Christians remained angry that schools don't open with official prayer (from which, the sympathetic fundamentalists offer, non-Christians can "opt out of" never mind the complications (and waste of time) such things bring).

The irony in Christians fighting for putting up as much Christian shit as possible in public areas is that-- at least for now-- our First Amendment rights always allow for other non-Christian shit to similarly be displayed. Thus, after the Oklahoma legislature paved the way for a (privately-funded) Ten Commandments display to appear in Capitol grounds, some Satanists quickly moved to have a (privately-funded, and totally spectacular) Baphomet display appear there as well.

Regarding the letter of Joe A. Putnam, who whined that we should urge Gov. Fallin to again have teacher-led official school prayers put in place, I noted that:
I have no doubts that when the day comes that someone gives a prayer to Satan in a 'public meeting' Christians like Mr Putnam will be livid. And it will all be their own fault. [Emph. in original]
Well, don't say I didn't warn you....
