Ask me anything about my Satanism

[VioletVortex]

Do you donate money or time to charities?
Do you feel sympathy for those experiencing personal tragedies?
Are you allowed to harm someone in order to please yourself?



Rebellion implies that your god wants to implement his own order. What does your god want to achieve?

Did your god create the universe?

Is your god the only god (or divine being) in your pantheon?

Yes, I do feel sympathy for people going through struggle. There are people out there that I don't like, and I can't really sympathize with them, but if someone who hasn't wronged me is struggling, I sympathize with them.

I don't donate anything. Charities generally don't get very much accomplished for struggling groups anyways. There are probably better ways.

Satanism doesn't have a dogmatic set of moral rules. So, Satanism would not prevent me from harming anyone. However, if I were to harm an innocent person, I would probably face consequences, and there would simply be no reason to do that. I do believe in the eye for an eye approach.

Satan wants a more enlightened humanity, free of dogma.

I believe that Satan triggered the beginning of the universe.

I believe in other beings but they aren't really "gods". I believe in ghosts and Demons, more as manifestations of certain energies, not literal beings.

Is it possible that this idea of Satan is a metaphor for the personality which is the adversary opposing realization of the true infinite and eternal self? Is it possible that there is a collective identity which is the combined force of Satan embedded in civilization? Is it possible that Satan represents the dark side of our consciousness or rather unconsciousness?

Satan is more than a metaphor. Also, Satan doesn't oppose realization of the true self. Satan encourages it. That's a central focus of most of the LHP. Consciousness is highly spiritual, so Satan has nothing to do with unconsciousness. The whole dark/light thing is metaphorical.

Ask me whatever you want to about my beliefs. There is, however one restriction. To avoid debates, and also to avoid making a fool of yourself, please do not ask me anything along the lines of "Why do you worship evil"?". Otherwise, ask me anything about Satanism.

Is there any specific book or philosophy that has a primary significant meaning to you, or do you draw upon many things? (I tend to do the latter, which is why I was curious.) Thanks!

How important, if at all, it is that other people attain a general understanding of your beliefs? Does that apply to specific people for any reason?

I'm interested, and this is called religiousforums.com isn't it? And he posted in the correct subforum didn't he?
MEH.

Don't think I meant to belittle nor disapprove of this thread in any way. That was by no means my intent.

Well, I started my venture into the Left Hand Path as a LaVeyan Satanist, and The Satanic Bible was important to me. Not spiritually, as it's just a book, but I saw it's teachings as valuable.

Now, I'm a Theistic Satanist and I draw spiritual information from many sources, such as The Satanic Bible, Joys of Satan, my own intellect, and a YouTube user called Styxhexenhammer666. I don't have one main scripture. Most Satanists would probably agree with me on this.

How does Satanism, in general, feel about Jews? About Judaism?

Are Jews mentioned in your beliefs in any way? your holy book?

Give me a break, now you say, Staff Member.

I prefer talking to those who are somewhat understanding of my beliefs, so I do want people to understand. However, I can't convert anyone to Satanism. I'd be glad to help them convert themselves, but anyone who needs someone to do the work for them isn't very Luciferian at all...

I have no problem with the common Jew, just as I have no problem with the common Christian, Muslim, or Hindu. I don't like Abrahamists who stick papers about god in my door handle. I don't like being preached to. However, I'm open to asking questions.

LaVeyan Satanists are generally very anti-fascist and want nothing to do with Nazism or antisemitisn in general. The same goes for most Theistic Satanists, but there a few groups of "Nazi Satanists".

Sorry if I gave another impression. It was a genuine question, or at least I meant it sincerely.

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, and I'm sorry if I over-reacted. It was a misunderstanding I think.

Joys of Satan...a YouTube user called Styxhexenhammer666

 

[VioletVortex]

Very funny...

 

[Saint Frankenstein]

I'm not trying to be funny. Both of those are awful.

Nuance can be hard to read correctly on text messages. Let's turn that page, ok?

Well, I have a strong sense of humor reagardless. Since this is not an area for debate, let's not do that. Personally, I think they are good resources. But since you aren't a Satanist, why are you commenting on the validity of Satanic resources?

 

[Saint Frankenstein]

Because I have more than enough knowledge to be able to do so, over a decade's worth. And you're only 15 so you don't want to go there.

 

[Brickjectivity]

Why do some Satanists address strangers as "My children?" I have seen this in person and on web sites.
