The Satanic Temple, an activist group based in Salem, Massachusetts, is threatening to sue Twitter for religious discrimination after one of its co-founders had his Twitter account permanently suspended.

Lucien Greaves, the Satanic Temple's co-founder and spokesman, said his Twitter account was permanently suspended without any notice after he asked his followers to report a tweet that called for the Satanic Temple to be burned down.

"We're talking to lawyers today," Greaves said Friday about whether he planned to take legal action.

    Very good. Yes, a fallen angel, cast down to Earth. In opposition to God, and tempting humans into sin.

    Also equated with the serpent who beguiled Eve into eating of the fruit of the forbidden tree of knowledge, leading to mankind being cast out of the Garden of Eden.

    Are you trying to say that you believe this being actually exists?

    Adam eats the fucking apple that "God" forbid him to eat, Eve get's the blame and the punishment (painful childbirth for all eternity). Every person born since then carries the blame for something none of them did.

    Seems legit.
