The Archdiocese of Boston is upset about the event, and they’re hoping Harvard reconsiders. Even though it will be happening on campus, it doesn’t appear school administrators will be getting involved.

The performance will be conducted by The Satanic Temple, a group known to stir up controversy.

FOX 25’s reporter Jarrod Holbrook spoke to their leader by phone and when asked if the ritual will be mocking other religious beliefs, he said, “Well that’s more of a creation of the religions that decry it themselves.”

The Archdiocese of Boston fired back with this response, “The Catholic community in the Archdiocese of Boston expresses its deep sadness and strong opposition to the plan to stage a black mass on the campus of Harvard University in Cambridge.”

The Archdiocese of Boston issued the following statement:

The Catholic community in the Archdiocese of Boston expresses its deep sadness and strong opposition to the plan to stage a “black mass” on the campus of Harvard University in Cambridge.

For the good of the Catholic faithful and all people, the Church provides clear teaching concerning Satanic worship. This activity separates people from God and the human community, it is contrary to charity and goodness, and it places participants dangerously close to destructive works of evil.

In a recent statement, Pope Francis warned of the danger of being naïve about or underestimating the power of Satan, whose evil is too often tragically present in our midst. We call upon all believers and people of good will to join us in prayer for those who are involved in this event, that they may come to appreciate the gravity of their actions, and in asking Harvard to disassociate itself from this activity.
