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

Do you have any other perspectives on the subject?
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.

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.
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.
