The Lehigh Valley school district that tried to ban an after-school Satan Club from meeting on its property earlier this year has agreed to pay $200,000 to cover attorney fees. The school will also give the club the same access to school facilities as “comparable groups.”

In the settlement finalized Thursday between the Saucon Valley School District and The Satanic Temple, the district also agreed to not retaliate or discriminate against club members, families or volunteers “on the basis of their viewpoint” or for the “exercise of their First Amendment rights.”

    The Satanic Temple has only been around for 10 years. While TST is amazing, people generally think of the Church of Satan instead (they were the posers established by a self-righteous, bigoted magician in the 60’s.). The two are not at all related or alike except for the motif of their names.
