The ignorance in this thread is incredible. Satanists do not believe in Satan. Satan is symbolic of their beliefs. In the Christian faith, Satan represents things like indulgence and gratification. So it really is the perfect symbol for what they believe. And no, i am not a Satanist.

"The feeling of awed wonder that science can give us is one of the highest experiences of which the human psyche is capable. It is a deep aesthetic passion to rank with the finest that music and poetry can deliver. It is truly one of the things that make life worth living and it does so, if anything, more effectively if it convinces us that the time we have for living is quite finite." -richard dawkins. |
This rule applies to GFY:
5. Herd Conformity?That?s obvious from a Satanic stance. It?s all right to conform to a person?s wishes, if it ultimately benefits you. But only fools follow along with the herd, letting an impersonal entity dictate to you. The key is to choose a master wisely instead of being enslaved by the whims of the many. |

religions are subjective. most of them are just modifications of others with one common belief, higher power. i think what really attracts people to become satanist is the promise of freedom.

and non-atheists are what? smart? LOL. I'm an athiest and I do believe in something. MYSELF. I don't need some made up invisible man to make me feel like a better person. People are free to believe what they want, but when they try to shove it down our throats that's when they see the less friendly side of people. Most religious people are brainwashed and will believe just about anything they tell them. So, who is the idiot? The ones that chose to not believe or the one that believes and lives their entire life according to some set of stupid rules made up by PEOPLE long ago? That to me is a very easy answer. See, religious people are the critical and judgemental ones. If you don't believe what they do then you are "evil" and they must try to "help" you. you look a certain way that they don't approve of then you're "evil" in their book. Sorry to say but I will not follow stupid idiotic rules. I would prefer to live MY own life and think for myslef thanx. Wether this so called God exists or not I don't give a shit. Never have and never will. Money is the root of all evil yet they want as much of it as they can get their hands on.. Ya, they make a lot of sense. Preach shit to people but never do what you're preaching about. Oh, but athiests are the idiots.. Ok whatever. |

A guy saying Athiest is stupid and his name is Agnosticism really should read up on what the fuck his name means before bashing something that is pretty much the same fucking thing as his name is.. |

I've lived by this one since I was a wee tike.
11. When walking in open territory, bother no one. If someone bothers you, ask him to stop. If he does not stop, destroy him. Personally I don't think there is a Heaven/Hell, God/Satan. It's a fairy tale made up by those in power at the time in order to contol the masses. Religions are not bad. Some people in them are. The ideas that most religions teach are great, but I feel most of them are in place to make it easier for the rulers to have an iron grip on society. As of right now, I don't call myself atheist/agnostic/satanist or any of that shit but I do however believe that the Satanist's "guide lines" are by far the most realistic. Humans are beings of emotions and needs. Christianity and just about every other religion teach you to suppress your normal and very natural insticts just because some book/religious figure told you to and promised that if you do so you'll spend a ga-jillion years in heaven. |
I pick agnostic because it is the only term that seems to be the only damn thing that is not definite and doesn't kill curiousity. Always giving the individual the ability of acceptance other people for their beliefs without exclaiming them as infidels as it seems most religious people end up doing, which I think it is against there belief.
I knew an atheist and he was smart as hell and also a "I am never wrong person" which he told me what he believes. You pretty much you become worm meat and he gave me his opinions on other religions, which was pretty logical for an atheist. Atheists for most part just remind nihlists. |

Satanism isn't as freaky as portrayed by Hollywood and media, it's very similar to Christianity just life viewed from a different perspective. While it's true there are a lot of nutters that end up in the news proclaiming to be satanists, there's always nutters from every different style or group of religion. Using the guise of their said relegion to justify their crazyness.
If anyone want's to kill some time, look up the Satanic Bible by Anton Szandor Lavey. It's an interesting read and basicaly sums up life to be lived to it's best. Love ones friends and family and to try and achieve ones best in life. No weirdo lifestyles killing rituals or sacrificial slaughtering. :D -N |
Just a public service announcement for the retarded folks in this thread, who despite having this explained to them several times in this thread, continue to spew ignorance.
Satanists DO NOT believe in Satan. |
I'm just throwing out a thought here.. Not trying to down Athiests, I really dont follow religion as it is. but...
I wonder what the Athiest to *Insert_Religion_with_a_higher_power_here* ratio is when nearing death. I could imagine it being high, right now many could careless, but when youre sitting in a hospital bed staring at death, the "piece of mind" of a heaven/after life sure seems good. |
religion is a personal thing..whatever their reasons maybe for being a satanist or any other, it is their choice, so let's respect that!
|
BY the way, do you guys know any rituals and ceremonies done by this cult?
