Welcome to Gaia! ::

Is this like that church of satan in LA? I took a friend there once as she asked me to go with her. It was retarded. It was like a backwards catholic church that just screamed "Look at me I'm an attention whore!" I don't believe in christianity, so a religion designed to be the exact opposite, for no other reason then shock value, is beyond stupid.

If this is something else, then disregard that comment.

Congratulations, you've figured out exactly how LaVeyan Satanism works.

Long live LaVeyen satanism, it teaches us personal freedom and apotheosis.

From Dictionary.com:
Quote:
a·poth·e·o·sis   [uh-poth-ee-oh-sis, ap-uh-thee-uh-sis]
noun, plural -ses  [-seez, -seez]
1. the elevation or exaltation of a person to the rank of a god.

Who exactly is being elevated to being a god here? You? In what sense have you achieved divinity? What would you consider divinity?

And this may be unnecessary to point out, but personal freedom is only truly possible when it comes with personal responsibility.

It teaches us that there is no God or devil but that we decide whats good or not.

Isn't that just relativism?

Marilyn Manson introduced me into LaVeyen satanism and satanism introduced me into Dimmu Borgir.

Really? That's... pretty sad.

Otaku ******** those religious and conservative bastards, they wont make me afraid anymore cause I reached enlightment. 3nodding [/quote]
Which "religious and conservative bastards" are you referring to, here? Christians? That tends to be what most people mean by "religion," from what I've seen, ignoring the fact that there are about 20, not counting variations upon each, or recent new faiths (which, according to the list given, would likely fall under Other).

Incidentally, many of the religions upon that list are not as conservative as you'd think, and would consider the use of fear in their practices to be appalling. Just saying.

EDIT: There's an even more comprehensive list here.[/url:bikmlup


Marry me?

Sorry, my heart already belongs to somebody. Who doesn't talk to me nearly enough, but still...

Most people are little popes I guess.
It changed. I thought this was going to be another ridiculous Jashinism thread.

Praying to her is as good as praying to god anyway. Nonexistant and non-helpful. At least she can entertain though so i guess that gives her the upper hand over the current one so sure why not.
