A word about atheists: Speaking for myself (and perhaps others as well) I see a difference between being non-religious (including atheist) and anti-religious. As a non-religious person I not only welcome religiosity (especially its values, virtues and morals) but I see religion as a good —not only for society, but for the person who is religious. In my view, opposing crèche scenes at Christmas is anti-religious, as is glorifying Satan (even though I don’t believe in Satan).
On board 100%. Nice to know there are other like-minds here. The whole concept of Satan is a bit ridiculous to me but why any retailer would offer merch like that is beyond comprehension. But then again after reading these updates every morning I’m convinced at least half the population has totally lost their minds.
Thank you. As a person who tries to live everything out of faith in God, it is refreshing to hear this from those of you who do not. It takes some wisdom to see that believers are not perfect in the living out of their faith, and yet the object of their faith is a good ideal. It also takes wisdom like yours to recognize a phony. I have been confronted by so many people who point to the crusades, the KKK, failures of the church, atrocities done in Jesus' name, cults and other fake Christian movements...yet they don't actually know about Jesus and what He taught. Going back to the source one finds ultimate peace and perfect love. Even for those who don't accept the reality of God, those are pretty good norms to strive for.

Not to mention that it is ugly merchandise.
It reminds me of 1970s rejects that couldn’t get sold for sheer ugliness.
Lousy designs lousy designer lousy store.

Satan wants you to think he doesn’t exist.
As a non-religious person, I agree with you 100%.

Yes, I am not religious but most definitely not anti-religious. I agree with you 100%.
Yeah Satan worshipping is subversive to society, whether or not one is religious.
Thank you for sharing Asa. x
Good point. I was a proselytizing atheist until the age of 33.
