Check your link again. It just moved off campus. Now the headline reads:
Even as Harvard Group Drops Sponsorship, Black Mass Underway at Hong Kong [restaurant]
Although the Harvard Extension School Cultural Studies Club dropped its sponsorship of a re-enactment of a Satanic “black mass” ritual earlier in the night, members of Satanic Temple gathered for what appeared to be a black mass on the second floor of the Hong Kong restaurant and lounge shortly after 10 p.m. Monday.
The Hong Kong is located on Massachusetts Avenue, directly across the street from Harvard Yard.
Thanks for the updated information. I doubt they will find an altar in a chinese restaurant.
It really doesn’t matter where it’s held or not held now. Harvard was willing to allow on campus an event that attacked a class of students on their campus.
Nor does their excuse about free speech hold water. That is precisely the excuse one would expect to hear out of anyone who wanted to attack a class of people. If the Nazis wanted to hold an anti-Jewish rally at Harvard, one would expect them to use “free speech” as the issue.
So what is Harvard’s crime?
Honesty. Simple honesty.
Had Harvard said, “A hateful group has petitioned us for an opportunity to degrade all of our Catholic students at an on-campus event at 8 pm on 12 May at Queen’s Head Pub. Their existence as a group is premised on their hatred of a class of human beings. We do not recommend this program to anyone, yet, provided our security concerns are addressed, it will go forward because of our open forum policy on Harvard.”
This “re-enactment of a Satanic Mass” garbage was almost an advertisement. It was totally devoid of explanation that Satanism’s very existence is owed to a desire to degrade that class of students that adhere’s to Christianity.
We should not fool ourselves, this struggle is not by any means over. Satans group is withdrawing for now to review and regroup. This is the most direct attention they have ever had in the American Secular world, except for the Halloween season. Don’t be surprised if someone floats the concept of a reality show based on their twisted dangerous beliefs.
