    Yes, as long as they arent harming anyone else. I believe that everyone should have freedom of religion. I don't want mine banned, so let them have theirs.

    I disagree, but just because I disagree does not mean that Satanists cannot do it. They would be protected by the US constitution just as a Presbyterian, a Baptist, a methodist, or whichever other religions that Americans choose to follow. A person has the right to choose what type of religion that they want to belong to.

    A Satanist is a Satanist no matter what their surroundings. Did you mean should he be allowed to ritualize, should the military provide him with the chapel to sub as his chamber? Ha .. I can't think of a more blasphemous place to hold ritual. I can't envision it being aesthetically correct for my tastes either though.

    How do you practice the Satanic religion? Esp. in the military... that just sounds hypocritical...

    As long as it is the US military and our constitution stands as it is people are going to practive whatever religion they believe in.

    Besides, why should anyone CARE? So long as they are doing their job what does it matter the religion they choose to follow.

    I don't see why not. I've studied LeVayan Satanism quite a bit, and it's not what people think it is.

    Of course. In the U.S. we have this thing called freedom of religion.
