Satanic activist and general provocateur Chaz Stevens, seen earlier this year walking around outside the site of a Republican primary debate wearing a giant penis costume (because, he explained, Donald Trump is a dick), is now trying to make his mark outside Boca Raton Community High School.
Right now, the District allows religious organizations to put banner ads outside the school:
They cant allow some religious groups to advertise but not others, so Stevens decided the Church of Satanology and Perpetual Soirée ought to join the mix:
He filed an application with the District yesterday. In his email, he included this message (emphasis his):
Kindly confirm receipt of this email.
Hail Satan.
Chaz Stevens, Bishop

(113,092 posts)The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence® is a leading-edge Order of queer nuns. Since our first appearance in San Francisco on Easter Sunday, 1979, the Sisters have devoted ourselves to community service, ministry and outreach to those on the edges, and to promoting human rights, respect for diversity and spiritual enlightenment. We believe all people have a right to express their unique joy and beauty and we use humor and irreverent wit to expose the forces of bigotry, complacency and guilt that chain the human spirit.

The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence (SPI), also called Order of Perpetual Indulgence (OPI) is a charity, protest, and street performance organization that uses drag and religious imagery to call attention to sexual intolerance and satirizes issues of gender and morality. At their inception in 1979, a small group of gay men in San Francisco began wearing the attire of nuns in visible situations using high camp to draw attention to social conflicts and problems in the Castro District.
The Sisters have grown throughout the U.S. and are currently organized as an international network of orders, which are mostly non-profit charity organizations that raise money for AIDS, LGBT-related causes, and mainstream community service organizations, while promoting safer sex and educating others about the harmful effects of drug use and other risky behaviors. In San Francisco alone where they continue to be the most active, between 1979 and 2007 the Sisters are credited with raising over $1 million for various causes, or almost $40,000 on average per year.[1]
