Would you object? Surely you believe in freedom of religion? Is it on public land or being paid for by public funds?

To reconsider their beliefs, or reconsider putting up a statue?

Do you do the same for other religions? If it was a Buddhist statue, would you also wish to speak to them and ask them to reconsider?

But do you see it just like any other religion, or do you see it as somehow directly opposed to Christianity (as you seem to imply might be the case with your OP).

Detroit seems to be a better fit than Oklahoma City.

Just say'in.

Washington DC would be an even better fit, however.

I'm sure Pope Francis will find a way to incorporate it into the daily mass.

Have you considered the possibility that it is you that doesn't understand what their religion is about?

Also the issue of public decency. We know Satan represents evil, and so it's morally dubious to depict children looking up to a satanic figure as if it's a god. Yes, I know satanists don't see their god as evil, but that doesn't change what Satan repesents throughout the world.

People shouldn't have to see such a disturbing image in public. It would be just fine in a museum.
