Tennessee after-school Satan club holds first meeting despite protests

Club flyer says Satanic Temple is a non-theistic religion and does ‘not attempt to convert children to any religious ideology’

Children had a “great time” at the first meeting of an after school Satan club at a Tennessee elementary school this week, organizers said, despite dozens of protesters who condemned the meeting.

On Wednesday, the After School Satan Club (ASSC), a federally recognized nonprofit organization and national after school program, held its first meeting at Chimneyrock elementary school in Memphis.
