Yes. I also wish the coneheads would make a happy comeback on SNL.

Bibo costs only $4.95. Can Baphomet beat that price? I think not.

I'd be down for putting this next to the statue of God in front of City Hall.
Nothing like a tacky angel goat to make traditional religion seem like the better option.

So apparently the unveiling is tonight I just hope these hopefully the busybody preachers don't ruin it.

Works for me.

All Hail Bielzebub!!

That Baphomet looks like your typical Hipster was dropped on Detroit. The question remains; is he urban or suburban?

**hdbuys** · July-26-15, 10:06 AM

Good attitude, I agree

Why does Satan sound like Jesse Ventura?

**Zacha341** · July-26-15, 12:13 PM

Satan can take on a myriad of forms. From the ugly to the most beautiful.

**rex** · July-26-15, 12:44 PM

Not sure what the big deal is. Im glad its causing religious people some grief though.

Either - whatever pleasing or seducing form required to capture the mind!

Jesus freaks is a fussin' and carryin' on.

**Zacha341** · July-26-15, 08:23 PM

Eh, it looks like just you carryin' on.

**G-DDT** · July-26-15, 08:25 PM

And we are to assume the supporters are an ethnically diverse crowd of mature, well-rounded folk with no parent issues, no lingering perchance for Rocky Horror Picture Show/Marilyn Manson mentalities, and an ability to develop freakish dimension of character or depth of mind that goes beyond mere superficial style?

You've wisely avoided the protests and the comments sections of local-to-international news stories on this matter!

The vast majority, yes. It is a protest.
