Satanic Temple Gathering (Part Two)
🕑 Added 2022-03-18 19:54:58 +0000 UTCHere is our second episode from our Satanic Temple Gathering series, featuring an opening debate with a Satanist named Democritus and a Catholic counter-protestor and an interview with anti-satanic activist and former LA County Sheriff Jesse Romero, as well as TST co-founder Lucien Greaves, We also learn about body modification, the etymology of Satan, and meet some 100gecs fans.
Also we were curious -- Would you guys be interested in seeing full-length interviews with figures from the TST/Athiest community such as Lucien Greaves or Aron Ra? We interviewed them each for both around an hour.
Hope you guys enjoy. Next episode will be about the 'Impurity Ball' that went down on the first day of the Gathering.
- Andrew, Evan and Nic

why did you put the uk flag after every comment😂
Gilena Simons
I agree with fang guy. I was always horrified by them jesuses on the crosses with blood dripping. Yuk. Amen. 🇬🇧
Gilena Simons
Why so uppity at your pulpit. I say, cool yer tits. 😂🇬🇧
Gilena Simons
Who is asking anyone to protect Jesus or any god? In my opinion, they can look after themselves. And if they cannot, no one should expect them to save anyone else. Duh. 😂🇬🇧
Gilena Simons
Again. Excellent analysis from the man in the black shirt. The Christians are praying for authoritarianism bc are so fearful of themselves and their own motives. Well said. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🇬🇧
Gilena Simons
The devil in the Tarot represents inner dialogue which no longer contributes to thriving. That’s why it’s the devil, not the satan card. Excellent explanation from the man in the black shirt. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🇬🇧
Gilena Simons
Once again. Christians are fear based pussycats trying to convince everyone to bow down to authority. Issue being, who’s for me. I am a Taoist and share similar values and goals with satanists. Amen. 🇬🇧

Imagine being pranked so hard by an inmate that you change your entire career and focus. Just wow

Strong utili-kilt vibes from Democratus

US has 15% foreign born population; so Switzerland has almost double the immigrant population relative to total population. Also, I personally would argue that Europe is all that homogenous. I would say that Hungarians, Swedes, or Portuguese don’t have all that much in common with the Swiss, at least not tremendously more than immigrant groups in the US. But all a matter of perspective aye
Suniyan
That doesn't mean it's not homogenous. Almost all of the migrants in Switzerland are European. At least to me that makes that statistic way less impressive.
ACH
Fun fact, Switzerland is in 3rd place in the OECD in terms of the share of immigrants in its population, with the foreign-born accounting for 26% of the total population. 24% of them arrived in the last 5 years compared with 22% on average across OECD countries.
Daniel Downer
the sheriff really got his faith in the lord strengthened because richard ramirez was fucking with him
Alexi zeren
Coming back after a 2 month sabbatical is like Xmas morning. This might be my favorite video yet. Honestly. Thank you Channel 5
Hunter Nance
When he takes the mic from Democritus lmao
Andrew Branzell
Swear to god Democritus is Moshe Kasher in character
robert pearson
I understand why the sherriff is so anti satanist , but richard ramirez was a devil worshipper not a satanist. Dude met a devil in human form.
toofless
i ❤️ 100 gecs
Quil_
I love channel 5
Eve
"who's not dating Pete Davidson" that guy was a legend.
Amulya Bhattarai
Absolutely wild you guys just ran into one of the guys that caught the Night Stalker
charlie
andrew was FIGHTING for that microphone back
Stef
Great contact as always guys! I really loved the open format with the body mod guy. I would love to know more about the sheriff!
clown shower
Democritus: I was in an anarcho-bookstore- Andrew: That’s what’s up.
Phlegm Leroni
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAA
Harrison Betnales
How did democritus smell
jay alan
"it means what you just said has been validated" lol
Christopher Spafford

Kyle

no orgies no satan no orgies all jesus
João Vítor Herrmann
Democritus made me contribute to patreon.
Nicholas Deal
yes orgys yes satan
katrina
PS I loved the background on the catholic police Ramirez guy. As a super atheist person, I feel humbled learning his backstory and why he has such strong beliefs in religion. It is crazy how we often are close minded and don’t take the time to try to understand other sides and other opinions. Very good piece of journalism showing both sides and giving them a chance I think. 🔥😅🔥
katrina
I think i speak for everyone here when I say “all orgies no Jesus!”
Cameron Lee
love you guys
Galen
9:51 dude is my favorite
Spencer Hughes

Christina Jackson

Therion Gish
I’d counter with “All orgies, and Jesus can cum too.”
HotRawChips
No need to get so worked up about a joke my man. Only say that for 100 gecs because, well, it’s 100 gecs 😂 I’ve listened to my fair share of it, and I’m certainly not trying to hate on anyone for being a fan of anything. Real dork move is calling random strangers on the internet freaks 🤷♂️
DP Workman
If you’re “ironically” a fan of anything you’re a dork. Love what you love and don’t cotton to freaks like “Hotrawchips”
Brandon Bills
New Patreon member. You’re out here doin God’s work my friend. Hail Satan
Carl Lindquist
Favorite series in a while. Learning a lot. I Never knew that satanists are really about freedom and not about worshiping the devil
Chris O
fucking love 100 gecs
Cj Campos
All gas no brakes ? More like No orgies all Jesus !
tapwaterskeptic
How are people gonna chant 'no orgies' and not realize they are on the wrong side of history smh.
Tim Weber
It’s cool you give them an equal shot but I’ll just hit up a Hot Topic instead! Come to Flint and see how we roll!!
André Borges
These are some of your most interesting posts ever, and that says a lot.
Kevin Williams

The 100gecs shoutout was so great and unexpected
Vincent
An easy counter to this edge lord is that Jesus was what many modern folk would consider something of an anarchist
Ryan Elwood
why yes, yes I would love to see the full length interviews, thx
Ben White
dweebs
Timothy Ingalls
god this shit is weird as fuck
Alex M Curnutte

Em Gee
Yes, very interested in an interview with TST Lucien!!!
Craig
he was being too loquacious
Robert Gault
H3 interviewed Andrew last year I think. It’s on the h3 podcast page. You should check that out. I’d like to invest in his project and work for them somehow bc I can see this being way bigger than vice in a few years.
Ben Gossow
Orgy video gonna be lit
Edward Piscopo Jr.
Full interviews with Aron Ra and Lucien please \m/
Emily Barnett
i’d do anything to interview Andrew Nic and Evan themselves. i have so many questions that need answers
Emily Barnett
Losing my MIND over the tiny AronRa snippet!
Chad Nielsen
Yes, more interviews with atheist/TST please!
Luke
Arizona is a crazy person breeding ground
Magic Plants
Great work Andrew. I want to hear from Peter Gilmore.

burrito bronson

Chris May
no orgies at all???
Michelle Sleeper
It's called SWINGING and they're doing it for JESUS sweaty. "The Lord is coming on to you so strong!"
ryan mchale
The full length interviews would be a treat.
Tobias Tehp
That group at the very end looks like the ones that would be organizing an orgy. Great content as always.
Jane Lane
Lucien is so well spoken and TST in their entirety have helped so many lives. They have fought corporal punishment in schools on the supreme court level, have used hyperbolic symbolism to enforce the separation of church and state and are continuously fighting to protect individual autonomy through all levels of government. I was ecstatic to see you spending time with this community and was sad to see the opposition was so poorly spoken that you didn't open the convo up as much as you would with others. All rambling aside, it would be WONDERFUL to see full length interviews with TST, particularly Lucien and co.
eric finley
yes to the interviews
James Reid
Part 3 better be from the orgy
Junpei Leetmaster
Satan doesn't burn in hell for eternity. He's the fucking CEO of hell! And guess who goes to hell? Only christians. Because for everyone else it doesn't exist.
blazingsword
Wow. What an interesting twist.
GM
Fascinating, Jesus freaks are scary people!!
E C
That guy in the tan suit looks like a Dick Tracy villain or something
Conrad
Really interesting
Conrad
I definitely would watch the interviews
Nemjersatyr
Yes please.
John
Bring on them interviews
Inverse Alien
"Would you guys be interested in seeing full-length interviews with figures from the TST/Athiest community such as Lucien Greaves or Aron Ra?" YES!
Jeanne Mahaffey
I'd love to see those full length interviews, Greaves and Ra are very interesting and intelligent.
Josh Nelson
smoke em if you got em. interviews, that is.
man
someone really needs to dress up as Satan and Jesus and then pretend to bang each other in front of everyone at these things.
Levi
Chilling. I was going to make a similar comment. Seemed like the most authentic person that was interviewed imo
Joe Crescenzo
Yes full interviews would be great!!
Zack Rose
Absolutely would love to see the full interviews! Drop em!
Bryan Naylor
If you believe the interviews are interesting and give a better understanding of the subject then bring it on.
a.
Interviews!!
Kay Connelly
I would love to see the full-length interviews. TST has so many cool projects that help people, but also have that weird flair that makes them perfect for the vibes of Channel 5.
Danger
In my experience TST is definitely a religious community that ALSO participates in targeted activism
H.B
No Orgies, All Jesus!
Televangelista

Urdnot Wrex

Katie

Barbecues and Ballgames
No orgies people!
Julia
Full interviews would be awesome!
Mac & Ashley Johnston
Give us those interviews!!
HotRawChips
Great points, that really is the main reason I’m not big on people who go to these extremes because I feel like it detracts from Satanism as a whole. People aren’t as keen to take you seriously when the first thing that comes to mind is people like this. Mainly this is how I look at it because I’m rather tame with expressing being a satanist in most situations 😂That being said I do agree they’re free to do as they want, and I’m definitely not ragging on them for expressing themselves.
Zac Gallenberger
More Channel 5 x Gecs content, fuck yes
Danger
I would enjoy watching the long interviews with Lucien and Aron Ra
Katie
yes full interviews please!
fleshmetal
love democritus & eye tattoo bro
RaddShreddy
Fellow Satanist here- I think I share my beliefs with a lot of these guys (Democritus also seems to be an Anarchist, as am I). I would grab a beer with any of the folks, and I do think the Satanic Temple is a wonderful organization that engages in a lot of valuable progressive political action. Their optics are pretty terrible though. Not necessarily their calling themselves satanist, or doing shit for shock value, or even their excessive body mods. But when it comes to actually explaining their ideas, they seem to either get very theory heavy, or they just kind of relish in all of the shock they've created. There are definitely exceptions, there were many more level-headed satanists in part 1, but if I was at a political rally for reproductive rights, trans rights, etc. I'd be a little embarrassed to be seen with these guys. For balancing wild shock imagery with progressive and anarchist rallying cries people can actually get behind, I think people need to take more notes from Vermin Supreme. He was a wild and silly dude, but BRILLIANT at getting his ideas across to people who were willing to lend him an ear.
Kevin
Who’s not dating Pete Davidson?
Kristopher Hernandez
Yes, please.
The worlds greatest drone pilot botgrinder fpv
lol and with the spooky red drop shadow too, the boys dgaf.
Gabrielle M
I second this sentiment. TST is really an activist group, using the "religion" workaround that other communities benefit from. I saw some comments saying they don't do anything..if you read up on their projects, they've done quite a lot ! It's not just a publicity stunt
Danger
🤣
Caitlin
Hell yes, give us the long interviews!
Dennis Stratton
Democritus needs a newsletter
something witty you hope to see on screen
Definitely, seeing the long form interviews would be excellent please!
Dennis Stratton
#democritus
Dominic Mortimer
Those long form interviews would be great to see
Jack Ocken
Would love to see the Lucien greaves interview. The satanic temple does a lot of good in the world and I think that the normal people at this satancon didn’t do as good of a job as Lucien would at explaining exactly what TST does and stands for.
Warulv
The Satanists are just adorable ^^
The worlds greatest drone pilot botgrinder fpv
we can all use a little more satan balls in our lives, preach my man.
Jack Conklin Jr
Def would be interested in watching full interviews.
Daniel Rone
I would tune in to a Democritus podcast
Emily K.
Full interviews with Lucien Greaves and Aron Ra would be cool.
Peter Bedford
That first guy was a little too 'loquacious' for my tastes. Concision is a skill we all benefit from, especially Satanists/atheists.
BloodPusAndRust
Send those full interviews, please!
snake with arms
Are we ever going to get that unedited Sherman video?
Todd Schreiner
Hail Satan!!
Jonathon Angell

Full length interviews would be great :)
Nathan Harrel
Wish there was a longer interview with that dude after Democritus! Definitely would love uncut interviews!
Jose Alvarado
The last group looks lkke it just came from an orgy.
Jose Alvarado
Kinda like the Satanist respect people more then the Christians. Ironic.
Carson Heffernan
Kinda feel for the ex sheriff dude. Seems to have a pretty good reason to be against satanists. I like how Andrew showed that bit of information. Really good journalism there
HotRawChips
As someone who is a satanist most of these people are taking this shit waaaaay too far 😭 the contrarianism makes sense, sense of individuality makes sense, the opposition to the church makes sense, but the hardcore body modification and whatever weird shit Democritus has going on just ain’t it for me 😂 Unironically being a 100 gecs fan really has to be where the line needs to be drawn though 🤷♂️
Isaac Forrest
no one can CUM to the FATHER
JG

RaddShreddy
