Welcome to Gaia! ::

I am not a Satanist, nor do I ever intend to be one, but I belive that it is basically what many of the others have said; living how you want to live, but still being a good person for the most part.

Well, good and bad is subjective really. I mean Satanists wholeheartedly embrace causing pain to someone who 'deserves' it. (i.e revenge) as long as you can work your revenge in some sort of intelligent fashion, when you won't get caught, or have negative consequences of your own stem from it.

That and one of the commandments goes something like this. "When walking out in the open, bother no-one, if someone bothers you, ask them to stop, if they do not stop, destroy them."

I mean, there's good, and there's good here. <33

I purchased a copy of the Satanic Bible... and it seemed to me that Anton LaVey suffered from mental problems, but I'm no psychologist so my opinion means very little.

I don't know... a religion that preaches hatred and intolerance is... just not for me. And I'm probably over simplifying what was actually said.

Good luck with your quest for knowledge. If Satanism is your thing then kudos! biggrin Have fun with that. smile

Well, for spiritual satanism try Joy of Satan
