'After School Satan Club' meets at Oregon middle school

After some controversy, the After School Satan Club met Monday night at a middle school in Portland, Oregon.

Club organizers said the club is about promoting the separation between church and state, and is not trying to encourage devil worship, according to KPTV.

Lucien Greaves, co-founder of The Satanic Temple, told KPTV that a Christian-based after-school program has been able to hold meetings at schools within the district without resistance, which gives the impression that the district is endorsing a particular religion. The movement is seeking to establish After School Satan Clubs accross the country. A group called Satanic Portland is leading a similar campaign in the area, according to KPTV.
