    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    A club flyer said that the Satanic Temple was a non-theistic religion that views Satan as “a literary figure who represents a metaphorical construct of rejecting tyranny and championing the human mind and spirit”.

    “After School Satan Club does not attempt to convert children to any religious ideology.

    All After School Satan Clubs … emphasize a scientific, rationalist, non-superstitious world view,” it added.

    Following the club’s first meeting at Chimneyrock elementary school, the Satanic Temple told WMC that “kiddos had a great time”.

    Meanwhile, another protester, Samantha Harmon, said, “There is no reason that Memphis should have ever allowed an after-school Satan club to come in.

    Speaking to WMC, ASSC’s national campaign director pushed back against criticisms, saying: “We don’t go to a school unless there is another religious club operating.”
