The Satanic Temple of Iowa was supposed to throw a holiday celebration on Saturday — exactly one year after a statue depicting the pagan idol Baphomet was destroyed in the display at the State Capitol building in Des Moines — but the state opted to cancel the event.


The Satanic Temple of Iowa alleges the Iowa Department of Administrative Services (DAS) "forcibly canceled" the event.



"We have made every effort to work with them (Iowa DAS) to ensure a successful event, but after over two months on the official Capitol events calendar we have been informed that our event will no longer be allowed," the Satanic Temple of Iowa announced on the event's page on Facebook Friday night.

Members of the Satanic Temple of Iowa planned to sing Satanic carols, and hold a Krampus costume contest and a Satanic ritual.

"Our goal was to promote tolerance and acceptance of diverse religious beliefs, with a theme of finding a light in the darkness and welcoming the darkest nights of the year with joy and camaraderie," the post said. "We are no stranger to obstacles in advocating for religious pluralism and freedom of speech, and we will continue to fight for the rights of Satanic Temple members and our local community."

Iowa State Capitol stewards confirmed the Capitol was open Saturday despite the ice storm and that the event was removed from the scheduled events calendar in the days before the event.


"After careful consideration of administrative rule and DAS policy, I determined the totality of the event request to include elements that are harmful to minors and therefore denied the request," Adam Steen, the director of the Iowa DAS, said in a statement to the Register.

We didn’t improve sports by giving irrational, hostile, obsessive people access to the Internet with a constant stream of consciousness….😂

Dec 21 Update (before the Utah game):

I went to see just how bad Iowa's rebounding currently is. What follows INCLUDES last night's games.

NOTE below that Utah (+8) is a good rebounding team.

Also check out below how good Drake (+9) is.

20 Clown second chance points tonight off 18 Clown offensive rebounds.

100% unacceptable, but it's the same sh*tty lack of rebounding, different game.

The Clowns win 89-80 after Iowa had led for 33:28 of the game (the game was tied for 3:27).

Iowa led by 13 points in the first half (39-26 with 4:09 to go) but blow the opportunity.

Last night at a middle school basketball game the opposing coach threw a tantrum that would make Fran McCaffrey blush. This idiot not only started cussing out the officials but also started cussing at our boys while flailing his arms and turning psychotic. It got so bad they ended the game with :14 seconds left and a police officer had to escort him off the court.

Middle. School. Basketball.

I won’t mention the number of stupid parents who reeked of marijuana and knew about as much about basketball as MAGAs know about inflation.

Over the years, I have seen this type of behavior get worse and worse. I’m curious what others have seen. Any anecdotes?

If anyone wants to test me

Wow, that was quick.

Iowa -1.5
O/U 167.5

Utah State (4-0) is 49th ranked Kenpom and averaging 100+ pts per game. Granted they haven’t played a P5 team yet.

I think the hawks struggle tonight and get their first L of the season.

91-78 Utah St

Just an absolute display of weakness. A real man and leader keeps his emotions in check when facing adversity.

What's going on here? I've seen multiple sites that show Iowa has a top 20 NIL collective program, yet I continue to hear we have no money. For the last few years Iowa has brought in some of the lowest transfer numbers of any P5 program, so where is the money going? I'm seeing programs like Minnesota, Iowa State, Kansas, Texas Tech and others that supposedly don't have near the collective programs that Iowa does but yet they seem to be attracting players that we cannot. Is it the numbers are a lie? If so, why are the numbers so low? I think it might have to do with that greater than 50% of our fans are no longer "excited" about Iowa football anymore. We have a coach that's been here for 3 decades and has spent all 3 decades preaching "we're not sexy" and now the rest of the country see us as such and many players are not even giving us a look. Thoughts?

It is great to be an Iowa Wrestling fan.

Go Hawks!
