Hope you enjoyed it.

The venue was changed a total of seven times because of arson and bomb threats from Christians.

Because of this, additional security measures were taken to keep the location of the venue a secret, including a pre-screening checkpoint that doubled as a decoy venue.

The final venue was an industrial warehouse with no air conditioning in 81° heat, 84% humidity, and thunderstorms.

Catholic protesters from a group called Church Militant showed up at the decoy venue but most left when it began pouring outside.

Two of the four who remained followed some of the attendees to the real venue and drove around the block three times praying the rosary in a bullhorn.

And they (the Christians) want freedom of religion. 🙄

You can have freedom unless you give freedom.

Correction from above:

You can't have freedom unless you give freedom.

I was trying to find the name of the sculptor, see what else he'd done. A (quick) search didnt give me a name, but i guess someone earned themselves $100,000.00. Nooice.

I can give you his name: Louis Cyphre.

Wow, okay. Will look him up! 👆

It should be pointed out that satanists do not actually worship Satan at all. The only quality of the traditional "Satan" they admire would be his rebellious spirit.

Lol no..well, you can, but that is not the guy I was kidding. The guy is from a movie called "Angel Heart" with Robert DeNiro.. Sound out the entire name as one word to see what it pronounces..

Damn, i havent watched that movie since the Cosby Show was on the air! 😆
Well played, Sir!

Just to add something here, I live in the metro Detroit area and know a few people who went. These individuals are open minded such as myself and said everyone there was kind and the atmosphere was peaceful. They did mention showing up at the public mentioned address then being given a paper with the secret spot. That didn't really add much but yeah 🙂

I find it great to know that the folks showing up to see the unveiling were just that. Folks.
