Satan is back!! 

Thieves Swipe Anti-Satan Posts 

I N G L I S, Fla. — Maybe the Devil did it. 

Someone has stolen four posts bearing proclamations banning Satan from this Florida town of 1,400 people. 

Inglis Mayor Carolyn Risher attracted national and international attention when she banned the Prince of Darkness in November, and had four hollow posts erected with the proclamations inside at the town's four entrances. But the four-foot posts vanished sometime last week. 

"I just can't believe anyone would do this," Risher told The Associated Press. "They were put there with good intent and for the good of the town as well as to reclaim our town back to God." 

Banning Satan was not universally popular in this central Florida town 

One resident went to the American Civil Liberties Union to complain over the separation between church and state. The Town Commission passed a resolution saying the mayor was only speaking for herself, even though the resolution was on town stationery, signed by the town clerk and stamped with the officials seal. 

Among other things, the proclamation said: "We exercise our authority over the devil in Jesus' name. By that authority, and through His Blessed Name, we command all satanic and demonic forces to cease their activities and depart the town of Inglis." 

Apparently, someone didn't get the message. 

Inglis says she plans to replace the posts with new ones twice the height that will be anchored in concrete. She also plans to put up a giant cross. 

"This time [they] are going to be in the ground nice and firm," she said.
