Instead of starting a county board meeting with a prayer to the Lord, you can now do it to Satan. At least you can in Washoe County.
Tuesday’s Washoe County Commission meeting didn’t end with “Amen,” but a “Hail, Satan,” Daily Mail reports.
“In the spirit of the unconquerable son, the bringer of light and knowledge, we say shemhamforash — hail Satan!” Miller concluded.
Attendees at the meeting can be seen shaking their heads and leaving the meeting as Miller gives the invocation, where he calls upon Satan to “bring influence and guiding actions of nobility and justice to the decisions made in this chamber today.”
The invocation or prayer was delivered by Reno Satanic’s Jason Miller and caused one board members to storm out in protest.
The staffer, Commissioner Clara Andriola, was the one to dream up adding invocations to the meetings in the first place.
She campaigned on it.
Reno Satanic refers to itself as a “non-theistic Satanic group” on X and says it is unaffiliated with The Satanic Temple, Church of Satan, or other satanic groups on its website.
In other words, the Reno Church of Satan’s goal is to mock religion and people who believe in God. If it’s non-theistic, you would think he wouldn’t be allowed to give an invocation.
However, that’s not what the Assistant DA Nate Edwards said.
“That’s a trend that’s going on in various places around the country where that group or groups similar to it are signing up for local invocations,” Edwards said. “The case law in the country and the federal law in the country is that you don’t have to open your floor for invocations. If you do open your floor for invocations, then federal law is that you have to let everybody have a turn signing up.”

People that place themselves above the laws of God can only have one outcome.
I see he is enjoying the LAW that he rebels against. In particular, “you shall not murder”.
“Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other”. -John Adams
This is what happens when a government authorizes, condones, licenses, protects sodomite marriage. A people who turn their backs on God, get the elected leaders they deserve. Putting a convicted killer to death is called murder, while killing an unborn child is call woman reproductive health rights. Illegal alien trespassers giving birth to instant citizens, while collecting from a welfare system they never contributed into. A dictator president making gas stoves illegal, while telling college loan holder they don’t have to repay what they took & landlords cannot evict non-rent paying occupiers of private property.
Your Bible told you the chaos would come, when leaders could not deal with what is accepted, successful, tried & true Christian culture and seek to replace it with humanism. America has fallen…”even so, Lord Jesus, come” (Last words in your Bible).
Leftists have all the childish, lazy idiots who plague our society, and not all have been hired as bureaucrat, unionized, taxpayer abusers or “elected” by Democrats to plumb political posts (in rigged elections by necessity, of course).
