Because it's not the right (tm) religion.

Because satan.

I'm taking bets now. I say the real motive behind this is so when the inevitable crazy Christians come and deface/destroy this statue the Satanists can talk about how intolerant Christians are and so on.

On mature reflection I think it is rather a shame to troll the Oklahoman senate so. They can't help being uneducated partisan backward hypocritical bigoted unprincipled tendentious prejudiced ignoramuses.

Pfft. I still think he's being optimistic.

Well Oklahoma is very flat.

If the Pentagram was made of Bacon it would be ok, i am more disapointed that the children are not headbanging and giving the devil horns.

Also one of their heads must be on backwards.

Agreed on all points.
