Boise Just Raised the Bar for Bold Inclusivity. Here’s How We’re Joining Them.

Usually, we’re the ones making officials uncomfortable—planting disco-ball-topped Festivus poles in state capitols, challenging unconstitutional religious favoritism, and fighting tirelessly for First Amendment rights.

But sometimes, a city gets it so right, we just have to stand up and applaud. That city today is Boise, Idaho.

Recently, Boise’s City Council courageously defied Idaho’s restrictive flag legislation by officially adopting the Pride flag as a city banner. This bold move sparked cheers, controversy, and passionate debate (read the full story from the Idaho Statesman here). More importantly, it sent a powerful, nationwide message affirming Boise’s unwavering commitment to diversity, inclusion, and constitutional freedoms.

Boise’s Boldness Deserves More Than Praise

Inspired by this landmark decision, we immediately reached out to Boise’s city leaders—including Mayor Lauren McLean, Council President Colin Nash, and colleagues—to offer our support and propose an exciting, historic next step.

In a letter to Boise officials, we praised their bravery and invited them to officially adopt our Church of Satanology flag as the city’s fourth official banner.

SATANOLOGY FLAG - May 2025

Let’s clarify something important: despite its provocative name, the Church of Satanology isn’t about Satanism. We’re pure satirical performance art—passionate advocates for religious neutrality, constitutional integrity, and free expression. Our vibrant flag symbolizes solidarity with marginalized voices, aligning seamlessly with Boise’s inclusive vision.

Why Boise, Why Our Flag?

Simply put: Boise has shown extraordinary courage, the kind of inclusive leadership we’ve urged in cities nationwide. While other municipalities we’ve approached—including five cities in Connecticut—have hesitated, Boise boldly set a new high water mark.

Adopting our flag would further amplify Boise’s powerful stand, making it the first city in America to proudly fly our standard—not as a protest, but as a fearless celebration of diversity, religious neutrality, and free speech.

We understand this might seem ambitious. So, we’ve offered an alternative: a temporary ceremonial flag-raising event. This would provide Boise another opportunity to boldly showcase its commitment to constitutional principles and inspire communities everywhere.

Your Move, Boise

We’ve formally submitted our proposal to Boise’s City Council, including an eye-catching visual mockup of our distinctive flag. We invited city leaders to explore ways we can collaborate to further amplify their groundbreaking inclusivity.

To Boise officials: Your decision to stand with minority voices and uphold constitutional freedoms is not just commendable—it’s groundbreaking. Now, let’s build on your remarkable act of leadership and inspire even more change.

We’re ready if you are.

Satan Loves the First Amendment

The Constitutional Equal-Access Test That Made Schools Squirm.

Wear the banner that forced a federal lawsuit and flipped school policy on religious signage. This isn’t about worship — it’s about forcing government neutrality under the First Amendment. Heavy. Honest. Intentional.

Go ahead, speak your mind.

Exposing Hypocrisy

One Story At A Time.

"Disruption Isn’t Just Necessary—It’s Democratic."


"Chaz Stevens has always embodied a fearless, in-your-face style of activism that cuts through noise and demands attention. His work isn’t just provocative—it’s purposeful. Whether he’s challenging government hypocrisy, exposing corruption, or pushing the boundaries of free expression, Chaz does so with biting humor and unapologetic urgency."

"What makes Chaz especially powerful is that his activism forces people to think—about power dynamics, institutional contradictions, and our collective responsibility to speak out. He doesn’t just push the envelope; he sets it on fire to make his point."

"In Florida, where critical voices are often silenced and sanitized, Chaz Stevens is a powerful reminder that disruption isn’t just necessary—it’s democratic."

Anna Eskamani, Florida State Representative

"Satan Loves the First Amendment. Broward Schools Didn’t."


"The Church of Satanology, run by the Ministry of Chaz the Bropostle, is a more political, constitution-based effort than it is an actual religion. "

Lianna Norman, USA Today

"This “Bite Me Greg” Activist Wants Them in Arabic With a Dash of Satanism."


"It’s a form of protest so ridiculous, it could actually work — and we would expect nothing else from a Florida guy [...] who’s back for a second round — and ready to mess with Texas."

Riya Misra, The Barbed Wire

"Council Braces for Flag Lawsuit Showdown."


"I think [Church of Satanology] is just nudging us to make the correct separation of church and state."

Torrington, CT City Council member Stephan Ivain

"The Law is on His Side."


“This letter was sent to poke the city in the eye for its poor choices ... [Chaz] knows what he's doing and the law is on his side.”

Attorney and Hartford, CT councilmen Joshua Michtom

"Stop Flag Propaganda."


"To help save it from itself, Connecticut could use a few more gadflies like T. Chaz Stevens."

Chris Powell, Columnist, CT Examiner

"It’s peaceful, it’s not violent."


"CHAZ STEVENS, the leader of Revolt Training, is heading out to Fort Lauderdale with 11 other protestors to — wait for it — wear inflatable male genitalia costumes paired with masks of Trump’s face."

Stevens said, "We are there smiling and taking pictures and it’s the absolute essence of our constitutional rights. Plus we’ll have a good time.”

Kimberly Leopard, Politico

“Provocative Activism That Gets Results Beyond Lawsuits.”


"As someone who has covered church/state separation for decades, I know that it's not always enough to make speeches or file lawsuits. Sometimes, you just need to grab the public's attention. No one does that better than Chaz Stevens."

"Yes, he's provocative. Yes, he can be abrasive. Yes, he often rubs traditionalists the wrong way."

"But here's the thing: He gets results. He demands attention through his unique brand of clever, funny, effective activism. That kind of public spotlight on a story can often do more than an entire cadre of lawyers. "

Hemant Mehta, editor of FriendlyAtheist.com

“Chaz Stevens Weaponizes Bureaucracy for Change.”


"As a media disrupter, guerrilla marketer, and all-around political gadfly, Chaz Stevens personifies John Lewis' idea of 'Good Trouble.' Few in Florida know more about weaponizing governmental bureaucracy to achieve tangible positive results."

"South Florida politicos have long admired (or feared) his sharp wit, savvy and doggedness — now, Chaz can show you the best, most effective way to get s**t done."

Phil Ammann, Journalist, Florida Politics

"A Relentless, Fearless, and Brilliantly Satirical Force."


"His unique brand of activism - equal parts performance art and legal precision has led to tangible change: public displays removed, policies reevaluated, and a growing awareness of the need for true governmental neutrality in matters of religion.”

Sharon Baron, editor of ParklandTalk.com

“Defending the Constitution, Not Your Feelings.”


"Chaz Stevens doesn’t care about you or your feelings because he’s defending the U.S. Constitution."

"And he’ll go to the mat to keep it unsullied by those who seek to defile it in the name of any agenda."

Anne Geggis, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist

"Sends Politicians Packing."


"There are those who don't know Chaz and those he sent to jail."

Aaron Nevins, GOP Consultant

"Diligent and Brutally Passionate."


"His pursuit of truth is intense and motivated. Love him or hate him, you must respect his work ethic and focus."

Commissioner Michael Udine, Broward County

"Disruption Isn’t Just Necessary—It’s Democratic."
