Satanism

Originally posted by The Hidden Face I agree with Tujue, Satanism is a 'club' for anti-social people who suffer from extreme mental problems. I don't think satanism has a serious theological background.�

I agree and while most so called Satanist are mostly confused teens there is an evil element and a few Satanic groups have gone as far as animal or human sacrafice, sick!! "The Satan Seller" is a good read by a former Satanist. Some people confuse Wicca with Satanism which are not the same things at all but even Wicca is mostly made up of confused teens who will outgrow it.

I cannot recall his name but one Satanic preacher in San Francisco, California wrote a Satanic Bible.
I found this on the internet

Come raise Hell with the First Satanic Church and celebrate at Karla LaVey�s Satanic Halloween Party and Unholy Variety Show.

Originally posted by JanusRook Theistic Satanism: This is really just a catch-all for satanists who believe in divine beings that affect the world. They believe that the Christian God is a vain and oppressive deity and that Satan (or Lucifer) is attempting to guide the world into a more individualistic and liberal society.

this sounds very similar to the gnostic beliefs of long ago.
