4 arrested after Satanist group attempts to hold Black Mass at Kansas Statehouse​

March 29, 2025 / 11:14 AM EDT / AP



The leader of a small group of self-described satanists and three other people were arrested Friday following a scuffle inside the Kansas Statehouse arising from an effort by the group's leader to start a Black Mass in the rotunda.

About 30 members of the Kansas City-area Satanic Grotto, led by its president, Michael Stewart, rallied outside the Statehouse for the separation of church and state. The group also protested what members called the state's favoritism toward Christians in allowing events inside. Gov. Laura Kelly temporarily banned protests inside, just for Friday, weeks after Stewart's group scheduled its indoor ceremony.

The Satanic Grotto's rally outside drew hundreds of Christian counter-protesters because of the Grotto's satanic imagery, and its indoor ceremony included denouncing Jesus Christ, who Christians believe is the Son of God. About 100 Christians stood against yellow police tape marking the Satanic Grotto's area. The two groups yelled at each other while the Christians also sang and called on Grotto members to accept Jesus. Several hundred more Christians rallied on the other side of the Grotto's area, but further away.

“Surprising and heartbreaking”


I’m curious to know what is it they ACTUALLY believe.

People will scoff at this but their belief systems aren't as different as most folks think. Now they have their bad apples but if we take it there we gotta do it on both sides of the table....and no I'm not a satanist. I just went through a phase a while back reading about different religions. It's wild how similar most of them are. Like one single group got together and made them all as part of a package.

With that said they supposedly have the same Constitutional rights as any other religion.

I listened to a podcast on Satanists some years ago and realized they aren’t the same a “Devil Worshippers.” They have a strange set of beliefs but iirc they are not worshippers of evil. It was interesting.

Rules for thee, not for me ass clowns
