what do you think satanism is?

Satanism is not a "Christian invention."

Satanism predates Christianity and all other religions.

Satanism is not about spooks, goblins, vampires, Halloween monsters or other related entities.

Satanism is not about "evil."

Satanism is not a "reaction" to Christianity.

Satanism is not about death.

True Satanism is about elevating and empowering humanity, which was our True Creator (Satan's) intention. We know "Yaweh/Jehova" of the bible to be a fictitious entity, and the people behind coercing this lie, to be the true deceivers of humanity and the masters of lies. This is evident in the many contradictions within the Judeo/Christian Bible, revealing this text to be the work of human beings who had occult knowledge and infused it with power to make it credible, and to incite fear in order to control.

We are law abiding.

We DO NOT advocate or participate in any blood or living sacrifice. This act is Judeo/Christian, as stated in their Bible- Deuteronomy 12:27:

"And thou shalt offer thy burnt offerings, the flesh and the blood, upon the altar of the LORD thy God: and the blood of thy sacrifices shall be poured out upon the altar of the LORD thy God, and thou shalt eat the flesh."

We have found Satanism is the original religion of humanity. We have done our research. Satanism is based upon the ancient religions that predated Judaism and Christianity from hundreds to thousands of years.

Christianity was a reaction to the original Pagan religions, labeled as "Satanism" meaning "enemy/adversary" in Hebrew.

Christianity was invented to remove spiritual and occult knowledge (the powers of the mind) from the populace and place this power in the hands of a "chosen" few to the detriment of all humanity. The powers of the mind and soul are very real. People who are unaware of or who do not believe in these powers are easy to control and manipulate by those who are skilled in using these energies.

The Original Gods [Demons] were unjustly labeled as monsters and branded as "evil" to keep humanity from spiritual knowledge. Because of this, the human race has drastically degenerated both spiritually and intellectually.

Spiritual Satanism strongly advocates all learning, knowledge, inquiry, and free thought.

Spiritual Satanism supports the separation of church and state. Satanists do not push Satanism or prosyletize.

Spiritual Satanists acknowledge science and believe everything of the occult/supernatural to have a rational scientific explanation. We believe humanity has been held back dangerously in this area due to the hoax of Judeo/Christianity and its relentless attacks upon science for centuries.

We practice power meditation to advance spiritually and to elevate ourselves. Power meditation is as essential for the human soul as food is essential for the human body. The serpent, a symbol of Satan represents the firey kundalini force coiled at the base of the spine, which upon ascending, transforms the human mind and soul to a much higher level of understanding and ability. This is the true meaning of "Raising the Devil." The Serpent symbol of Satan also represents the DNA helix of life.

We work directly with Satan. We believe each and every person who is willing and respectful can have a personal relationship with Satan. There are no mediators in Spiritual Satanism; the Ministry is here only for guidance and support.

We take our tenets and practices directly from Satan himself. For far too long, enemies of Satan such as the Christian churches have been at liberty to dictate lies concerning Satan and Satanism. These lies have been the foundation of occult crimes and other heinous acts that they indirectly promote. True Satanism has been actively and zealously suppressed for centuries and many out of ignorance believe lies about Satan and react accordingly.

Spiritual Satanism is a life loving religion. Satan accepts us as we are, but guides us to advance ourselves to where we evolve to a higher level. Spiritual Satanists are free to live their lives as they choose- responsibility to the responsible. We live by natural law and encourage everyone to develop themselves to their fullest extent.

We know we “save” our own souls as opposed to claims of the Nazarene saving anyone. Satanism is based upon the true transformation of the soul through power meditation. The Nazarene is a fictitious entity, whose identity was stolen form some 18+ crucified Pagan Gods, such as Odin, who hung from a tree and is nothing more than a tool to keep humanity under the control of a chosen few. The Nazarene has been used in Christian masses and services as a substitute for a human living blood sacrifice, revealing their true purpose.

The Judeo/Christian religion is a vicious hoax on humanity of catastrophic proportions. For a hoax to succeed there has to be a lack of knowledge on the part of the victim. The Christian religion and its cohorts actively suppress knowledge and free thought

Your understanding of Satanism is merely that of modern Satanism, where Satan is a metaphor for rebellion and individuality. Prior to 1966, the term Satanism would be understood in more of a common sense fashion; namely, it would pertain to a philosophy or worship of Satan, as the name itself implies.

Moreover, if one accepts the pagan origins of Satan as pertaining to Set and the Babylonian Shaitan, then one could, indeed, believe in Satan without believing in a monotheistic God.

What makes you think you're so enlightened about these matters? A little research may imbue you with some sense of humility -- and it might help you realize that you are not even half the genius that you seem to think you are.

I've always thought that Satanism was created as an "Anti-Christianity." As a way to rebel against mainstream culture and scare people (use of pentacles and 666, both tabo sybmols in Christianity, yet not at all connected before). I think since then it's been reformed or divided. I once saw this "Satanist" woman on the news being interviewed on her religion, and she said it was about "enjoying life because there's nothing after death."

Satanism id the belief in the gods of old many of them have been called demons by the christian church. the term satanism in itself should be abolished its only called satanism because that's the name given to Enki, the true creator, by the jews while creating christianity. And we are also against the christians because the idea of their false and despicable god and profit is an affront on the true gods of man.

I am a spiritual satanist

Funny. I believe in nature.

Are you saying nature is a lie?

There's only one great lie on this planet, and that is the cake.

EDIT: No, it wouldn't be called atheism. That would be a form of Paganism. And I don't really care if my Paganism is incorrect, kooky, mad, or whatever. It does not interfere with my ability to make real and rational decisions, nor does it magically lower my above average IQ. Nor does it restrict the rights of others, so I will continue to believe what I wish to believe. Regardless of one insignificant page of text on the internet.

Just out of curiosity, what was the point of this question? Because if it was to tell everyone who thinks differently than you that they are wrong, you're no better than the fundies, your question was just more eloquently worded.

How God Conveys Truth

Actually, God conveys his messages in a way that allows sincere seekers of truth to search them out. (Psalm 14:2) Consider the message that God delivered through his prophet Jeremiah centuries ago. It was given to God’s wayward people regarding the coming destruction of Jerusalem by the Babylonians.—Jeremiah 25:8-11; 52:12-14.

Yet, at the same time, other prophets claimed to speak for God. Hananiah foretold peace for Jerusalem. That was a very different message from the one that Jeremiah delivered. So whom was a person at that time to believe—Jeremiah or those who contradicted him?—Jeremiah 23:16, 17; 28:1, 2, 10-17.

How could people know that Jeremiah was a true prophet, when others contradicted him?

To know who was right, sincere Jews needed to know Jehovah as a person. They needed to understand his laws and principles, as well as his attitude toward wrongdoing. Doing so, they would have agreed with God’s words spoken through Jeremiah that “there was not a man repenting over his badness.” (Jeremiah 8:5-7) Furthermore, they would have discerned that this sad situation did not bode well for Jerusalem and its inhabitants.—Deuteronomy 28:15-68; Jeremiah 52:4-14.

Jeremiah’s prophecies about Jerusalem came true. The city was razed by the Babylonians in 607 B.C.E.

Although the consequences of disobedience were foretold long in advance, effort was needed to recognize that the time had arrived for God to take action.

Satanism is true paganism, many of the demons were egyptian gods, as well as sumerian gods. Satanism also predates the judo-christian-islamic belief system.

Satanism is NOW about doing bad things because, hell isn't always permanent. So basically, serving your time then partying in heaven. NOW, before it had nothing to do with Satan and God, but it has changed cuz of some guy whos name escapes me.

TO ALL PEOPLE!!! SATANISM ISN'T THE WORSHIP OF SATAN!!! IT MEANS DOING WHATEVER YOU WANT, CUZ HELL DON'T LAST FOREVER!!!

Don't mislead people.

You either believe in good, that means God ... or in evil/bad, that means satan or the devil ... there is no other options

Add ... I believe satan excist - but i believe in God

Why ask a question then answer it yourself.

I don't care about Satanism because it's a cult and not towards God.
