Satanic Temple advocates for equal representation in public schools
Conservative lawmakers in Florida and Texas allowed religious chaplains in public schools, leading to the Satanic Temple advocating for equal representation. The Temple, recognized as a religion by the IRS, uses satire to make a point about the encroachment of religion on public life. They have faced opposition and threats but continue to grow in numbers, especially due to the rise of Christian nationalism. Legal battles have shown the effectiveness of the Temple's strategy in gaining access to public spaces intended for other religions.
