Does being a Satanist make you a bad person?
I am not a satanist, but I was wondering what people thought of the subject, and those who subscribe to this theology?

Judeo Christian perspectives, are all I've got. So the terms used in the Bible/Torah precepts, would be the perspective of this thread... Unless
Do you have any other perspectives on the subject?

There are a bunch of groups that call themselves Satanists. Several of them hate each other.

The original Satanic "cult" of the modern world was LaVey's "Church Of Satan" which was really just about having sex and general lack of restraint. Most of the later groups followed similar "left-hand-path" models.
So I would say being a Satanist doesn't make a person evil, but it's a good sign that he's a dick.

You're so right, I mean about LaVey's "Church Of Satan". I have heard about his doctrine, but never delved into his teachings.

To me being a LaVeyian satanists doesn't make you evil. It can make you quite sensible actually. Though they are weird, because they hide their philosophy in some very odd rituals.

Its basically dont turn the other cheek. enjoy life and what it has to offer.. dont be the weak lamb but the strong wolf. look out for yourself.
it really is lack of inhibition or lack of belief in religious sin

Does this truly happen? Sacrifies, are pretty grim, I'd be inclined to call it evil too.

That wasn't Christianity, that was evil men hiding under his banner, while in command of the indoctrinated of Christ, making it dirty for all the world to see, and gawk. Saying look, they are under the banner of Christ, I guess that this is what being a Christian means. The KKK also marched with his banner on them.
Just because I wear it doesn't mean that I am it.

There's no known instance of satanic cults engaging in human sacrifice.

so why are you taking jinx by janx statement as factual or the norm.
you were told that their are different satanist religions that dont share anything in common with one another.
the original one was more about a way of living.. others are a religion and some are cults but none are interchangeable nor speak for the main one.
LaVeyian satanists
the way you view my statement is the way you should view jinxed by janx, generalization is bad especially with no evidence as such and being the norm.

Satanists are mainly LARP fans and quite satirical about religion as a whole.
Kinda like the ultimate protesters of religion.
So I like them alot.

No, it doesn't. It is pretty stupid though, because the sensible parts of the belief pretty much make the religious elements completely superfluous. I would say I believe in a lot of elements of LaVey Satanism, but i'd never become one because it works better as philosophy than religion.

No it doesn't make you a bad person, but it does make you a douche.

How? I would say Christian, Jews and Muslims are equally douchy. I think you are a little biased.
