I'd say remove it because it's ugly. I know the Denver Airport is known for some fucked up art (my favorite is the Nazi guy chopping at a dove) but that thing is ridiculous.

it has a huge, realistic cock and illuminated orange eyes.
what's not to love?
especially when its snowing and you're about to board a plane, and you're like "that horsecock has such a calming influence on me before I fly".

If by Satanic, they mean AWESOME...

that is pretty satanic. Bad ass. There is no Dana only Zul.

Well, in that picture, it really kinda does... Doesn't mean that it should be removed, though. Damn cool picture.

First, the Bible has no physical description of Satan. All the cloven hooves and pitchfork and forked tail and horns and red skin stuff is fluff that later people added. Probably, this was the physical description some other people claimed for their competing god that the early Christians weren't too thrilled with, probably Pan.
Second, a horse with in a storm with blue skin and glowing eyes doesn't even make for a great fit with that or anything other than pop "bad guy" colors.
In fact, I could rather more plausibly say that the horse looked heavenly. Psalms 18:7-11 describes Yahweh, the God of the Christians:
The earth trembled and quaked,
and the foundations of the mountains shook;
they trembled because he was angry.
Smoke rose from his nostrils;
consuming fire came from his mouth,
burning coals blazed out of it.
He parted the heavens and came down;
dark clouds were under his feet.
He mounted the cherubim and flew;
he soared on the wings of the wind.
He made darkness his covering, his canopy around him—
the dark rain clouds of the sky.
Yahweh was historically a storm god of the Hebrews. So that picture you're looking at there is really more-or-less what the pre-prettified God that Christians worship might have looked like -- fire coming from his face, a dark creature who rides in storms.

Holy shit, the Demon Horse! I saw that when I flew in the Denver International Airport once, at it scared the piss out of me.
Did you know that it killed its creator, and that it roams the streets of Denver at night, drinking the blood of the innocent?
