What are your thoughts on satanism?

[The Flayed One]

Ah well. At least the thread got hijacked by a worthy cause this time, instead of teh buttsecks and teh whathaveyou.

[R.C. KITCHENS]

BloodRayne, your right. I dont have a clue about what true satanism is, because it is everywhere and is everything.
My display of pornographic sessions is just an entry of
a form of what satanism is, Pleasure and the flesh has
many more forms but the delusion I was under in creating this post, was to show the basic creed of most organized and
un organized affilliates. Sex/Lack of Sex, and the meaning to
belong is how churches come together...Satanic, Christian,
and many other churches of different variations have all
formed there beliefs around those core genocides.

Still, I dont see any responses on how you would feel
about such a group or legion being apart of your town
or city or even coming from your home.

Im not a stupid person. I want to be apart of the begining, in
a way that is organized. There is a new form arriving and soon
it will be in order.

People can and do participate in any activity that they choose here (as long as it's legal)...No one really cares...

As long as what someone else is doing doesn't adversely affect, or harm MY family in any way...It really doesn't matter what they're doing...Everyone is entitled to do their own thing...And to be perfectly honest, I really don't think we would even notice...

We do our thing...Everyone else does theirs...We all get along just fine :)

I have nothing against Christians, but I do not believe their religion for the fact that I am sick of them saying one thing and yet they do the opposite of what their religion teaches.

My family would do the same sadly, but I'm really to the point that I wouldn't care.

I know one person that is a Satanist and one that wants to become one.

I'm sick of the stereotypes that get pasted upon me whenever somebody discovers I'm a Christian. If you don't want to believe in God, if you choose to worship Satan or Gaia or whoever then fine. It seems almost as if not being a Christian goes hand in hand with being an indefatigable detractor of Christianity.

This is not exactly true. Sure, SOME participate in a black mass type situation but it seems that all most all of the time those involved don't really follow the pagan/wiccan path, (there are exceptions of course). In fact just about every pagan or wiccan I've ever met prefers not to participate in any "mass", they would rather practice by themselves without all the wasted candles that a group (coven) situation would have. Thats the beauty of it, they can choose to be solitary, and most do.

As for this one I say: who cares? And as they say in that song from back in the day "It's your thing, do what you want to do."

Don't take it personally, Sweetheart....Not ALL Christians (or anyone else) are the same...YOU are definitely NOT like the ones that give Christians a bad name in general...If you WERE, you wouldn't even be at this forum...I know that you know what kind of people are being referred to when others express distaste for 'some Christians'....My baby girl is a Christian...She does NOT do the things that the 'bad ones' do

I'm in a hurry (gotta cook), so I hope this made sense

True...I didn't mean to make my post seem 'all-inclusive'...I should have said, "SOME Pagans/Wiccans include ceremonies like Black Masses (although, none that I know personally)"....I apologize if I offended anyone...It wasn't intentional....THIS time :p

I'm going to butt in on this thread, sorry if I upset anyone!

Rayne, did you get my email last week?

But...They accept (need) help from God, usually when times get rough...and sometimes BLAME God when things go wrong

A Christian believes "God helps those who help themselves".....But...A Satanist believes "Only I can help myself"

you used the statement True Satanists...knowing the posers do other things..

i'm using True Christian in the same sense. Christianity is all about choices .. a True Christian knows that there is no help - it's all up to them to make the right choices while on earth.

Thats a wonderful ideal way to live,but not everyone is like that.
I did sterotype Christians as being burnbellies, or stake drivers.
but after reading despare's comment, I see a side of christianity
that I, because of the easily depicted notion of christians,lost
reality with. That, some christians dont care, It's a choice to follow
your own path, but, There'd be mass hysteria in some area's.
especially with the levels of members..Everyone is different,
I almost feel like association in this matter would only demise
my path.
