When large numbers of otherwise-law abiding people break specific laws en masse, it's usually a fault that lies with the law. - Unknown |

I was expecting a more negative response. The Satanic Bible was alright pretty much up until the point where it describes all the rituals and magic crap. I know it isn't meant to be taken seriously, just used as both an emotional outlet and a way to freak out superstitious people, but I found reading it to be tedious and boring. The rest of it painted what I think to be a pretty accurate analysis of human nature though.

1/14/2011 2:41:45 AM Posted: 6 years ago It's pathetic. It contains no more than a few sentences of substance, the rest is padding. It's a post modern religion for really bored, really jaded, 'edgy', atheistic teens.
I am voting for Innomen because of his intelligence, common sense, humility and the fact that Juggle appears to listen to him. Any other Presidential style would have a large sub-section of the site up in arms. If I was President I would destroy the site though elitism, others would let it run riot. Innomen represents a middle way that works, neither draconian nor anarchic and that is the only way things can work. Plus he does it all without ego trips. |

1/14/2011 3:47:49 AM Posted: 6 years ago I like Lavey as well, but I certainly wouldn't call myself a Satanist. The whole idea (IMHO) is that all religion is fake ANYWAY, so lets make up a religion and pretend worship a symbol of decadence and have a good time!

1/14/2011 7:44:07 AM Posted: 6 years ago It makes a lot of good points, but so do the Gospels. Most of what is contained within it is common sense. I certainly don't need to hail Lavey's observations as a modern marvel. So, yeah...
But if you like to jack off to it, it's of no consequence to me. "Have you ever considered suicide? If not, please do." -- Mouthwash (to Inferno) |

Just love each other man, Jesus is the man.. man?" and become a Christian right on the spot. Especially if you are a hippie.

1/17/2011 7:29:57 AM Posted: 6 years ago Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't Satanism some sort of atheist religion? (I, as a christian, don't tend to look into religions that are named after my enemy)
I think it is kinda disrepectful. Just be like advanced atheists or something. But whatever, I believe in free will. Have fun, kids.

It has little at all to do with Chrisitanity except to divorce itself explicitly from a couple of certain perceived Christian beliefs. It should not be confused with theistic satanism which is very different and more directly opposed to Christianity. |

1/17/2011 10:01:03 AM Posted: 6 years ago No, Lavey Satanism is an purely atheistic "religion".
There are other "religions" that are called "satanist" and do believe in god, and a real entity called Satan. Lavey Satansim doesn't believe in god, at least not the theistic god. To the satanist, you are your own god. Satan is more of a metaphor than an actual entity. Basically, the philosophy is "Do what you will, as long as you can get away with it". It is a selfish philosophy through and through. One thing that I find admirable about Satanism though is that it is at least honest in that regard. Most if not all religions are selfish, and use coercion in some way to get you to see it their way. Satanism on the other hand just flat out tells you that it is a self centered and self serving philosophy. Unlike most faiths, this is not considered negative. Now take the "Do what you will" philosophy, a lot of "Hail Satans!", and a bunch of stupid rituals, and you have Satanism. It's a perfectly valid philosophy. Keep in mind that "What one wills" could very well be to help people. A lot of people get off on doing good for other people. Even they can be Satanists, so calling yourself a Satanist is not necessarily an admission of being an @sshole. In a way, everyone already is a Satanist, even if they don't realize it. This is of course why you all need the saving grace of Jesus Christ, for he died on the cross to save us from our own inequities.
