The Daily Mail reported:
Chaos erupted at the Ottawa County board meeting in Michigan when a member of the Satanic Church delivered an invocation to start the gathering.
A man by the name of Luis Cypher, a minister of the Satanic Temple of West Michigan, gave a speech on Tuesday reiterating the importance of separating church and state, one of the main principles of the organization.
But the massive crowd descended into protest as people chanted and sang hymns such as ‘Amazing Grace,’ put signs on the wall that said, ‘God always, Satan never’ and ‘Satan has no rights.’
One man yelled, ‘hail Satan,’ while others yelled, ‘we love Jesus.’
The exchanges remained verbal and did not escalate to physical violence.
