Satanism your veiws
Everyone in this forum seems to be making a big deal about it, but here is your chance to say what you think of it. Personaly i think there is no big deal everyone has there own choice of religion and what is so different about satanism.

i think its misinterpreted alot....mainly because of ppl who assume its about anti-christianity and spitting on bibles, when its not...
its also stigmatised to do with the music scene surrounding the type of bands like the 1 in ur sig.
It's glorified atheism, nothing more, nothing less...maybe with a sprinkle of buddhism in there

easy guides there.... alot of the stuff is really funny to read actually like
"if someone bothers you, ask him to stop, if he does not....DESTROY HIM!" haha
thats 1 of the few things that make it stand out as even remotely "evil"
for instance a quote from that site:
"In recent years, we've wasted far too much time explaining that Satanism has nothing to do with kidnapping, drug abuse, child molestation, animal or child sacrifice, or any number of other acts that idiots, hysterics or opportunists would like to credit us with. Satanism is life-loving, rational philosophy that millions of people adhere to. Now we're ready for something that goes quite a few steps beyond just explaining our principles. Every revisionist movement needs a set of goals - guidelines that are clear, concrete, and that will effect significant changes."
also, id like to point out im not actually a satanist at all, im just curious about other religions, since to say i dont beleive in any of them without first knowing about them would be stupid

I don't care, they can believe what they want as long as they don't bother me about it or hurt anyone over their beliefs.

I have no problem with Satanism, have a few friends who are Satanists.
I have no problem with any belief that doesn't do harm to innocents.

Satanism is harmless. And hey, we need something disfunctional goth kids can believe in to upset their parents.

Actually Tpt, a lot of Satanists are atheists, the "Satan" in "Church of Satan" is just kind of a way to point out their dislike of Christianity... There are a lot of different definitions for "Satanism", but the largest "denomination", so to speak, is the Church of Satan, which I don't think actually has anything specifically saying that it is Satan worship. Sort of like Buddhism, a small number of Buddhists believe in a supernatural power, but Buddhism in its purest form is only belief in yourself.

I read some of those sites on the Church of Satan and stuff, and I think it is more like a philosophy than what we are used to refering to a religion. Satan in their church does not mean the devil... it is everything the church is not. The church encourages conservatisism... satan is indulgence... etc.
I dont know that i totally understand it, but it seems like satan is an inspecific kind of force "recognizing human nature" kind of thing... not so much a deity.

But to be a satanist, you have to acknowlage the presence of satan, and therefore acknowlage the existance of god, as satan was first mentioned in the bible.

Satanism is different to what people usaly think, firstaly it is not evil but dark even the church of satan renounced murder and human sacrafice.
Some communitys take it to much as a threat so thay burn "Satanic" music like the one feachured in my sig, these cummunitys are usaly in americans (no insult ment) where thay have hole states who are cristian.
I listen to Black metal and hate christians some would call me a satanist (by the meaning mentiond on this forum) but i am not an evil person, more of a dark and shady person, as the hole satanic religion is
