I grew up in American Fork, one of the towns listed in the article. The extreme religious indoctrination and craziness of people living in Utah County can not be described in words. There is no separation of church and state, Wrexify. For some fun, leisurely reading, I suggest this website:
Utah Eagle Forum This forum has an active presence here in Utah and members support ultra conservative legislation. Not surprisingly, the head of the Utah chapter lives in Utah County.
That said, I don't believe in Satan. My mother, who is very religious, definitely does. I can only shake my head when she tells me that Satan put dinosaur bones on Earth to confuse us and turn us away from God and the Bible.
