The Satanic Temple is opening a second abortion clinic! Donors can vote on the name. My favorites: Beelzabort The Preemptive Stork’s Abortion Clinic, and Ejaculate Misconception Family Unplanning Clinic

Pretty distrustful of TST. Deaddomain on youtube did a video on their shenanigans

I believe its the temple, unfortunately. The founder is very shady and lots of structure that makes money seem to disappear if i remember

You might should find something to substantiate that before making allegations.

Otherwise this is like a string of “they eat pets in Ohio” bullshit statements.

Having no idea who, or what kind of channel “Deaddomain” is, I did a quick GoogleFu and found this interesting take from a TST member that seems to make sense of what I suspected this kind of sensational video title would be about.

Sensation is probably not how id describe i suppose, and i think they do also talk about how there are likely pockets of tst members that are, though i would have to rewatch to remember all the details. So watch the video, read that article, do some of your own research if so inclined. Maybe ill check out some claims from the article later, cant really dig right now.

I strongly advise you watch the DeadDomain video and form your own opinions. Everything she claims in it is sourced. It is not at all what that Medium blogger says it is. If you prefer reading to video TempleWatcher has pages (with all points referenced) on the two owners Greaves and Jarry.

This is pithy on it’s face. I’m not sure of the utility of opening a “Satanic Clinic” from the perspective of women in need of health care services.

That’s just marketing. It’s a regular clinic otherwise. XD

But even still… they should just make it a regular clinic. Don’t give it a funny name, don’t put their name on it, don’t do anything that will give ANYONE an uneasy feeling about using it when they are in need.

If a woman needs/wants and abortion, she’s most likely gone through hell (no pun intended) making that decision. The last thing she needs is to see that her closest option is the ‘Hail Satan Abortionarium’ or feel that her situation is being used to score political points for some organization.

I fully support TST and all that they do… but this just feels a bit sleazy.

I see what you are saying, and fair enough. I’d say we do name hospitals and clinics, so I don’t see much of an issue on naming this one. If anything, I’m sure there are clinics with normal, pious names, that would outright refuse abortions. So…

They already have Samuel Alito’s Mom’s Satanic Abortion Clinic, so this is nothing new for them. It’s a creative way to fundraise and helps send a message to those trying to curb women’s rights 🤷‍♀️

I hope so. But up front it just looks like a publicity stunt

A Satanic Clinic can argue for religious rights on the ritualistic sacrifice of the fetus.

Again, pithy. But not particularly helpful.

100% helpful. The satanic temple is a recognized organized religion in the US. It’s why they are so effective at shutting down “we will just have preachers in schools” initiatives. The Satanists can then send their preachers in, and the school cannot stop them legally. The programs always fold instead.

Religious rights having outsided power in the US is 100% a goal of the conservative supreme court and the GOP. Any power they give to Christians can be claimed by Satanists too. By opening up a church which offers the sacred right of abortions, Satanists fight the weakening of the separation of church and state, or at a minimum, can undermine abortion bans

Its a win win.
