    From what I remember, they don’t actually believe in Satan. But under American law you can’t be recognized as a religion without claiming a deity or god

      That second part is not accurate at all. There is no requirement for worship of any deity to have the full protection of the first amendment, nor is there a requirement for a deity to be eligible for tax exempt status.

      There are multiple religions that are protected under the constitution that worship is not a part of the religion at all.
