I noticed there wasn't a TST Lemmy community. The Satanic Temple is a modern satanic religion that aims to promote human rights and compassion. Check out their about page on their official website at https://thesatanictemple.com/pages/about-us. Note that this community is not an official affiliation. TST is also separate and not affiliated with the Church of Satan, who have a slightly different viewpoint of what satanism truly is. Dunno what to post in here, but maybe some will search for this and take part. Hello!

The teachings of Jesus, the moral example of Jesus, is totally irrelevant. You can't get into heaven by emulating Jesus. You can't get everlasting life by treating people with compassion and respect. Those sermons and shit, that was just a hobby that Jesus engaged in that has no bearing on his purpose on Earth or what a Christian needs to do to be a Christian. The only way you can get into Heaven and see your mommy again is by unquestioningly accepting the dogma of Christianity, which is completely amoral by any humanist standard.
