“It’s not Satan-worship, it’s Satanism. It’s embracing the life-enriching things which have traditionally been given the ‘devil’s’ name: pride, lust, earthly success, rational self-interest, atheism, humor, nonconformity, science, a passion for living, being selective about whom we love. We don’t see these as shameful ‘sins,’ but as empowering ideals. And we also recognize the psychological power and fun of symbolism and aesthetics, so we utilize Satan as mythology’s most fitting mascot for what we are about.” — Magister Bill M.

Many TV shows feature iconic vehicles, but perhaps none are as legendary as the General Lee. While it's just a car, the stuntmen of The Dukes of Hazzard turned the General Lee into a true character of its own.

#OTD 1975 - The Edmund Fitzgerald sank on Lake Superior about 17 miles northwest of Whitefish Point, Michigan. ⚓️ ▶️ The sinking: The ship went down in Canadian waters near Whitefish Bay after battling gale-force winds and 35-foot waves. ▶️ Last contact: The Fitzgerald made its last known radio contact with another vessel, the SS Arthur M. Anderson, around 7:00 p.m. on November 10, reporting that it had a list and some damage. ▶️ Aftermath: No distress call was ever heard, and no survivors were found. The wreck remained a mystery until the ship's bell was recovered in 1995. ▶️ Deaths: Her crew of 29 perished, and no bodies were recovered.

Satanism is an atheistic religion so yes, all Satanists are atheists.

The term satan as used in Satanism predates the Christian character by centuries. You asserting that one fictional character must exist if the other does is your claim, they are both fictional characters as far as we are concerned. Further illustration that you don’t have any idea what you are talking about, which is why you were corrected in the first place.

Which god? Humans have invented 20,000+ gods. They made up the Satan character less than 2000 years ago. But still wrong, language almost certainly predates fairytales.

We have a long history of recognition within the US armed services and many members in active duty to this day. As an individualist religion however, Satanism doesn’t require a Chaplain. churchofsatan.com/faq-milita…

The term satan as used in Satanism predates the Christian character by centuries, and Satanism is just one of many atheistic religions. You not being able to wrap your head around it doesn’t mean it’s just trolling. Again, there’s an FAQ you can read.

Incorrect still. We didn’t say the idea of Satan predates Christianity we said the word does. Jainism is atheistic and is not a modern invention in anyway, atheistic religions have been around just as long as theistic ones.

There are no sects of Satanism, the relgion has only existed for 60 years and there’s significant and clear literature on the subject. Sects arise after centuries and are based on disagreements over interpretation of vague literature.

The Satanic Temple is a political Activist group that has Christian members and uses “Satan” to troll politicians who rejects the religion of Satanism. “Theistic Satanism” is an oxymoronic term created by law enforcement in the wake of the Satanic Panic to try and save face. These are not sects in any sense, they are just intentional and efforts to confuse the general public.
