In a powerful interview with Human Events’s Jack Posobiec, Michael Cassidy, a Christian veteran, spoke out about dismantling the Satanic Temple’s Baphomet statue at the Iowa State Capitol, urging Americans to reject Satanic influence and reconsider their cultural values.
Cassidy shared the backlash he has faced, including hate mail from Satanists and their sympathizers. “I’ve received both positive and negative feedback,” he explained. “Some people have applauded my stance against Satanism, while others have sent hateful messages through fake Facebook accounts and Twitter trolls.”
One message that stood out came from a father lamenting that he could no longer show the statue to his daughter. Cassidy emphasized the impact of public idols, stating, “It’s crucial to understand how these icons can shape society.”
He concluded with a heartfelt plea: “Reject Satan and embrace Jesus Christ. It’s disheartening to see a desire to expose children to darkness.”
Cassidy’s commitment highlights the need to influence future generations positively and serves as a reminder for Americans to reflect on the values shaping their society.
