2. Satanism(LaVeyan) 3. Do you know why youre here??Do you know
where you are going? 4. Why do most search up here for?Is there
really anything up there? 5. Why do we commit the sins that are
said to be wrong 6. Why not live carefree and enjoy the wrongs of
ourhuman nature You can hear it right? That little whisper inyour
eartelling you to do it 7. You are your own person, why believe
that you mustanswer to anyone?Ask yourself , is there really
someone watching over me? Or isit just a figment of my imagination?
Is it something I believe to betrue, or is it something that I know
is true?Think about it.would you believe it if I told you I saw a
manwalk on water? What about cure a blind man without medicine?Turn
one liquid into another? No right? What if I wrote it in abook long
ago? Even worse right? 8. Let us see what Satanism is about1. Satan
represents indulgence instead of abstinence!Why should you deny the
pleasures of the physical world? Instead indulge in them, they are
there for a reason, enjoy them. Control is thekey to indulgence, we
must never become addicted to it; surrendering controlis never
encouraged. 9. 2. Satan represents vital existence instead
ofspiritual pipe dreams!Why not live your life believing in
yourself and the world aroundat that point in life? The truth of
that existence is to be honored and sought at all times, never to
be sacrificed for a comforting lie or an unverified claim one
cannot bother to investigate. 10. 3. Satan represents undefiled
wisdom instead of hypocritical self-deceit! True knowledge takes
work and strength. It is something onefinds rather than what will
be handed to you. Doubt everything and avoid dogma. Truth tells of
how the world truly is, not of how we would like it to be. Be wary
of shallow emotional wants, for theyfrequently can only be
satisfied at the expense of truth. 11. 4. Satan represents kindness
to those who deserve it, not love wasted on ingrates!Satanism does
not encourage hate nor cruelty towards others.There is no point in
that but neither is there a need to treat others kindly when they
will not appreciate it. Treat others as they treat you. 12. 5.
Satan represents vengeance instead of turningthe other cheek!Does
this make sense? Turning the other check when others wrong you?
Leaving wrongs unpunished leads to showing weakness andencouraging
others to continue to prey on yourself and others. Butjust because
you must not allow this, does not mean that you shouldbecome a
bully in the name of vengeancethis is not encouraged and you
deserve to be dealt with accordingly. 13. 6. Satan represents
responsibility to theresponsible...! Satan represents
responsibility to the responsible instead ofconcern for psychic
vampires! Real leaders are determined by theiractions and
accomplishments, not their titles, and real power andresponsibility
should be given to those who can wield it, not to thosewho simply
demand it. 14. 7. Satan represents man as just another
animal...!Are we better than those that walk on all four legs?
Humanity is driven by the same natural urges that other animals
experience.Our development has no doubt caused us to accomplish
great things but it has also brought cruelty throughout history; we
are the most vicious animal of all. 15. 8. Satan represents all of
the so-called sins...!These sins lead to physical, mental, or
emotional gratification, sowhy are we denying them? What is a sin
and who named it that? A sin is something that breaks a moral or
religious law, Satanismdoesnt believe in following of this dogma.
When a person avoids andaction, it should be for concrete reasons;
not because dogmaportraits it as bad. When a true wrong is
committed a person should accept it, learn from it, and not do it
again; not be begging on hands and knees for forgiveness. 16. 9.
Satan has been the best friend the Church hasever had...! Satan has
been the best friend the Church has ever had, as Hehas kept it in
business all these years! This last statement is largely a
declaration against dogmatic and fear-based religion. Ifthere were
no temptations, if we did not have the natures that wedo, if there
was nothing to fear, then few people would submit themselves to the
rules and abuses that have developed in other religions
(specifically Christianity) over the centuries. 17. The 10
commandments?.the Nine Satanic Sins 1. Stupidity2. Pretentiousness
3. Solipsism4. Self-Deceit 5. Herd Conformity6. Lack of Perspective
7. Forgetful of Past Orthodoxies8. Counterproductive Pride9. Lack
of Aesthetics 18. So what is the truth? Satan is a myth, just like
God and other deities. Satan is also,however, incredibly symbolic,
representing all of those thingswithin our natures that outsiders
might tell us is dirty and unacceptable. The chant of Hail Satan!
is really saying Hailme! It exults the self and rejects the
self-denying lessons ofsociety. Finally, Satan represents
rebellion, just as Satan rebelled against God in Christianity.
Identifying oneself as a Satanist is to go against expectations,
cultural norms, and religious creeds. 19. Who shall guide us? Just
