Satanic Statue Unveiled in Detroit

The Satanic Temple has unveiled its controversial bronze Baphomet statue in Detroit, Reuters reports. The statue was originally going to be installed in Oklahoma, next to a monument to the 10 Commandments. It didn’t work out.
According to Reuters, the 9-foot-tall, one-ton statue was unveiled at an industrial building near the Detroit River last night. “Hail Satan!” people said.

About 50 people—ugh, Christians—protested the monument’s unveiling. “The last thing we need in Detroit is having a welcome home party for evil,” Reverend Dave Bullock said.
