The ACLU alleges a Pennsylvania school district violated the First Amendment's Free Speech Clause by rescinding an After School Satan Club's rights to use district facilities.
"The First Amendment protects the expression of unpopular or controversial views from government censorship. Once the district opened up school facilities to outside use, it was bound by the First Amendment to grant equal access togroups, regardless of their religious beliefs or viewpoints," she said, according to the press release.
The Satanic Temple's statue of Baphomet was based on a drawing by occultist Éliphas Lévi, pictured above at a museum in Germany.
