There are 2 scenarios if Stan is portrayed:
- He is portrayed positively
- He is portrayed negatively
#2 is a way more profitable business model than #1, even if society is way more pro Satan and pro pagan than they would like to admit (Christmas, Easter, Premarital sex, most people not going to church regularly, Separation of Church and State that isn't going away anytime soon, rock music that is praising the Devil,
this hand sign).
A lot of people don't want to be labeled as Satanists out of fear of public disapproval, but they incorporate many pro Satan things in their life (for most people, way more than Christianity). God and Satan (if they exists) cares more about the actions behind the label, whereas the low IQ majority care more about the label. Just like how white people don't want to be called racist as they move out of the inner city and head towards the suburbs "to get away from crime" (aka getting away from black and Hispanic people). I can respect a Tom Bouie style racist that doesn't hate black people but admits he doesn't want to live around them because they are black.
People want the socially accepted label (whether it's non-Satinist, non-racist) but they don't want the sacrifice that comes with it of waiting until marriage to have sex or moving to Bridgeport, CT or Camden, NJ.
