During the SatanCon convention, held at the end of April, 830 people participated and bought tickets. A youth gave a striking testimony at the convention: “As a gay boy, the fact they said to me that I was an abomination and that I should be destroyed, distorted my way of thinking a lot. To discover The Satanic Tempe helped me to adopt logic and empathy.”

The Satanic Temple says its membership has increased from 10,000 in 2019 to over 700,000 at present. Some members of The Satanic Temple don’t admit openly that they belong to it for security reasons. They say that those who did admit it publicly lost their jobs, lost their children in custody battles and found fake bombs under their cars.
