  • Introduction to Video Content
  • SatanCon, a convention organized by the Satanic Temple, is set to take place in Boston, leaving many unsettled. While most people are familiar with popular conventions like Comic-Con, Satan-Con is a unique event that has caught the attention of Boston's Christian community. The convention is expected to attract hundreds of members of the Satanic Temple and will be held at the Copley Marriott. In response, members of the Christian community are urging their faithful to respond with prayer rather than protest.
    The choice of Boston as the location for Satan-Con is not a coincidence, as the city has a contentious history with Satanism. This year's convention is particularly significant as it marks the 10-year anniversary of the Satanic Temple. Despite the controversy surrounding it, the event quickly sold out, attracting attendees from all over the country.
    Many Satanists, like Susanna Plum from Pennsylvania, are ordinary people who pay their taxes and want to see their communities improve. They emphasize that they love their children and are just like anyone else, except for their different beliefs. Satanism as a religion is often misunderstood, and many people wrongly assume that Satanists intentionally provoke Christians. However, Satanists claim that they do not care about others' opinions and are not trying to offend or troll anyone.
    The convention is dedicated to the Boston mayor, Michelle Wu, in commemoration of the Satanic Temple's denied Satanic invocation at Boston's City Hall the previous year. The mayor's office has clarified that neither Mayor Wu nor the city of Boston are sponsors or affiliated with Satan-Con 2023. Mayor Wu will be out of town during the convention.
    Members of the Christian community stress that God loves everyone, regardless of their religious background, including Satanists. Their primary desire is to see Jesus enthroned in people's lives. As Boston prepares to host the largest Satanic gathering in history, the city remains divided, with prayer being the recommended response from the Christian community.
  • Subtitles section
  • Well, you've probably heard of Comic-Con, but how about Satan-Con?
  • Starting tomorrow, hundreds of members of the Satanic Temple will be in Boston, their convention coming to Copley Place.
  • And as WBZ's Tammy Moutassa reports tonight, Boston's Christian community is asking their faithful to respond with prayer and not protest.
  • That's right.
  • Hundreds of people are expected for Satan-Con here at the Copley Marriott, and you can bet a counter-event is also in the works.
  • And it's not a coincidence Satan-Con is coming to Boston, given its sour history with the city.
  • It is expected to be the largest Satanic gathering in history.
  • The sold-out Satan-Con is coming to Boston with controversy.
  • Susanna Plum is in town from Pennsylvania for her first Satan-Con.
  • We pay our taxes.
  • We want our communities to improve and be better.
  • We love our kids just like everybody else, like, we're just normal people.
  • We just believe a little differently.
  • The milestone event, marking the 10-year anniversary of the Satanic Temple, is dedicated to the Boston mayor, Michelle Wu. This after the group wasn't allowed to deliver a Satanic invocation at Boston's City Hall last year.
  • So Satanism is a very misunderstood religion, and a lot of people think we've just picked the name Satan out of a hat to troll Christians or something, but we honestly don't really care what anyone else thinks about us,
  • So we're not doing anything to troll anybody.
  • The mayor's office responding that neither Mayor Wu nor the city of Boston are sponsoring or affiliated with Satan-Con 2023.
  • Mayor Wu will be out of town this weekend.
  • God loves everybody, whether a Satanist or whatever background you might be.
  • We desire to see Jesus enthroned.
  • As a counter-response to Satan-Con, a Christian event called Revive Boston is happening the same weekend.
  • Hundreds of Christians are expected to worship and pray.
  • Some Catholic churches are passing out prayer cards as well.
  • Satan's a deceiver.
  • So anything other than Jesus is not the truth.
  • So I feel bad for these people.
  • They're deceived like anybody else, you know, but the love of God is extended to them.
  • The Satanic Temple says it does not believe in Satan.
  • Instead, the group advocates for the separation of church and state.
  • I don't want to be judgmental, but it is like really unheard of.
  • I'm just more curious of like what are they practicing.
  • I understand the confusion, the fear.
  • I really do.
  • But at the same time, we're a very misunderstood group.
  • Both Satan-Con and Revive Boston start on Friday and go through Sunday.
  • We have reached out to Marriott about Satan-Con, and we're waiting to hear back.
  • In Boston, Tami Mutassa, WBZ News.
