Satanism

Postby Tushmeister on Sat Oct 27, 2007 9:30 pm

Anyone here into it at all?
I've got the La Vey Satanic Bible
And to me it's not really a religion, so much as a self-help book
I personally agree with a lot of it, it basically says not to abstain but to indulge, not to feed social vampires who leech from everyone without ever giving back
But it isn't the cruel, vindictive system Catholocism and the media portray it

It actually quite firmly states, those who deserve respect and your best behaviour should ruddy well get it
It's only those who deserve nothing from you who should get nothing from you, instead of Christianities supposed 'help everyone' approach

As far as Religions go it's the one I can most accept, the spells and chants bit at the end is a bit absurd, and I ignore it in general, but the rest to me makes more sense than most others, mainly because it's barely religious I expect...


Note I wouldn't call myself a Satanist, I'm just more closely linked to it than to any other religion (and I've looked into a fair few)

Hmm. The idea has always confused me.

I mean, what exactly is being a satanist? Because when you first hear of a satanist you think of murderous goat sacraficing white guys.

But I really have no idea, so what exactly does a satanist do/believe?

Yeah it's nothing like that
It basically says Religion, namely Judeo-Christian religion, is a farce, and that the human should 'worship' himself, the only day he should celebrate is the day of his birth, and that since God is essentially an existentialisation of mans ego (since man feared his own ego, he created an outside force to represent it) Christianity is a vulgar, arrogant religion in essence anyway

It basically says live for yourself, protect yourself and enjoy everything you can

Satanism these days seems to be more popular as an image than as an actual practical belief,though im sure there are a few dedicated satanists.

Yeah, I don't really consider myself a Satanist as said, but I guess in many ways I am

Im Atheist, but if i had to go with a religion, it would be Satanism. It has laws that every common man should follow such as give respect to the people who deserve it. Ive been wanting to pick up the bible for it but the last thing i need is my mom to freak out haha.

I'm sure that if you explain to her that it's NOT about worshiping Satan, and explain what it's really about, then maybe she won't be as bugged out about you reading it.

Of course, I've never met your mum so I have no clue. Just an idea though.

I have never really looked into Satanism before but what are their views on the afterlife, surely they can't believe in hell from a Christian perspective but since they worship Satan do they wish to go to hell? or is the Satanic version of hell a much different place than the Christian one?

They don't believe in Heaven or Hell
It's not about worshipping Satan
If anything it's about worshipping the self
Satan was just the Christian Representation of everything a human was made to be but they didn't want to be, hence 'diabolically evil' hence 'Satan'

That is completly ridiculous imho. As the religion is named 'Satanism' :P That really would imploy it is a religion devoted to Satan. And here in Norway, that is certainley what it means.

^Well no.
Satan IS the evil in every man, it was always defined as such, so Satanism, dedicated to the self, IS dedicated to Satan...

I think it's a selfish and childish religion.

My religion keeps me a good person, makes me forgive, and helps me lead a better life. I would never swap that for a life of indulgence and selfishness.
