Oklahoma City.........twinned with Hades

I particularly like this statue of Satan,
 perhaps Oklahoma could use a replica?

Last week the news broke regarding a group of Satanists who are submitting a planning proposal to have a massive statue of Baphomet, a pagan idol with the head of a goat, erected in Oklahoma.

Oklahoma is inextricably linked in my mind to a rather wholesome view of the United States.
A place where people (or folks as they are called) drive around in smart little pony and traps (surreys) singing pleasant songs and slapping their thighs in a rather disarming manner.

The women (gals) are all fresh faced and they all wear check shirts atop slightly scruffy (but very clean) blue jeans.

This is, obviously, how it was in Oklahoma pre Vatican II.

It is different today.

For the life of me I can't see why any sane person would want a statue of a goat anyway, not that I've anything against goats, you understand. I am in no way capraphobic.

After all, I am a broad minded soul and believe that goats should be free to live their lives without being judged by those of us who are not goats; who are not that way inclined, if you like.

But, it may surprise you to know that I am quite taken with the idea of a massive goaty statue.

I think that the planners should give the concept the thumbs up, after all, it may illustrate to people  folks, that the devil is both real and grotesque. He is not just a bogey man, he is alive and kicking and doing very nicely, thank you.

And, if some simple minded peo folks are attracted to the idol and wish to have their kids (kids....get it?) photographed sitting on Satan's lap, sobeit.

It will just speed the downward spiritual spiral that the world is in and hasten the return of Christ to earth.

Then, of course, there will be much bleating and gnashing of teeth from the Goat loving community.
