Like your complete bafflement that believers of other faiths or no faith might feel threatened when your religion sets up displays of religious dogma in public courthouses etc., even though you're aware (at least you are now, thanks to the funny Satanists) that you would feel  exactly the same way if the tables were turned.

You may have misunderstood. I couldn't care less if there was a Satanist statue, or a Buddha, or a Jewish star on public land lol. It's the intended sign of hostility/hate by putting Satan right next to the 10 commandments that I don't like. Standing on it's own, I wouldn't really care.

Ok how about if it stood next to the courtroom you were being sued in for whatever, and it said

I am your Master, Warblegarble
You shall have no other masters
Do not drink Tea on tuesdays or you shall burn for eternity
Do not think about pencils and pens or you are an abomination

and so on in that fashion

And imagine that this is the code virtually everyone in your society professed to follow, and they put it there in all earnest.

Tell me you wouldn't freak out a little bit.

And the Jury eyes you suspiciously, and you imagine them whispering among each other "I know we're serposed to be neutral and all, but we have the monument we believe in standing there for a reason, no? She looks like a tuesday teadrinker, doesn't she? And an awfully nice handwriting, too. Im objective and all, but that just screams "I'm guilty""
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
Psalm 14, KJV revised edition
