The performance, which will take place Monday night at Cambridge Queen’s Head Pub in the basement of Memorial Hall, is organized by the Extension School’s Cultural Studies Club with help from the New York-based Satanic Temple.
The ceremony will model the script of the black mass articulated in novelist Joris-Karl Huysmans’ work “Là-Bas,” although a consecrated host will not be used. In addition, Christopher Robichaud, an ethics and public policy professor at the Kennedy School of Government, will speak at the demonstration to frame the event in terms of religious liberty and tolerance, according to the club.

Isn't Satanic black mass a religious activity? I thought religion and school didn't mix. In fact, it is a violation to permit religion in schools. I was shocked that the administration claims it is a learning tool. What has happened to Harvard? If anything else, it will permit Catholic and Christian activities. "Religious Liberty"?????????????????????????????? Any thoughts on this?
“This is not a supernatural ritual,” Greaves told the Daily News. “We don’t believe in the supernatural. And I don’t think belief in the supernatural should give you any privilege, since any deeply held belief should be protected.”
This makes The Satanic Temple’s activities more of a political statement than a cohesive religious ritual — in other words, closer in theology to the Church of The Flying Spaghetti Monster than the Church of Satan.

As part of a series exploring different cultures, the Cultural Studies Club is also hosting a Shinto tea ceremony, a Shaker exhibition and a Buddhist presentation on meditation.

I do not know if you know this but, private schools can mix all the religion they want. Why entire private universities are regious based. Now in a public school if they allowed a satanic black mass or a christian prayer service they are ok as long as they allow all other religions the same opportunity.

I guess next we will be doing human sacrifices again, and some nut job will be saying hurrah for diversity.
And I'm not ignorant when it come to satanism, my son practiced for years.
