Actually the statue is perfectly real, although clearly Maya has no clue as to the symbology (tres surprise), the statue is (I think) intended to showcase Satan as the light bringer which is pretty common in Satanic circles, but what it really was about was a physical demonstration of the hypocrisy of freedom of religion, they had to go through a lengthy process to be able to erect it because freedom of religion did not extend to the freedom for satanists to erect statues. Just how many Satanic circles do you think are out there? I get that there are some numbnuts who use Satanism tropes to test religious freedom, but the believers think these people really are worshiping Satan The hoaxers selling this idea are reaping a profit off of them. There’s more “Satanic worship” inside of Christianity than outside of it. If there were not, the hucksters could not get the faithful to behave like demons (see QAnon supporters, Westboro Baptists, etc). Hmm I dont know, yeah 100% "Satanism" is normally the athiestic humanist "religion" and these guys specifically were that, which of course makes more sense as this is really a political statue rather than a religious one, and I was paraphrasing what I remembered at the time around the point being that satanists have lots of statues to erect, the real point was highlighting the hypocrisy with one statue. There are a pretty good number of actual worshippers around though, I was active among some in NZ at one time in my life and there are plenty more.
