What possible benefit could there be to worshiping Satan?
Why would someone worship a deity who only wants them so they can torture their soul for eternity? 😕
It IS difficult logic to follow.

I never said Satanist were smart did I?

But to expand satan promises powers and pleasures while on earth in exchange for the soul. Others are weak minded or have mental disorders so are easy prey for manipulation.

Who'd you hear from that Satan grants powers and pleasures? A satanist?

No its all a con don't you get it....I never said he GRANTS powers and pleasures I said he PROMISES. BUT HE LIES! don't you see? Its a con game to win more souls.

Who'd you hear he promises from?

Nobody. Its a simple statistic. A majority of those who responded to a survey that indicated they were "satanist" also indicated they do not believe in any deity.

Awesome......satanists have to lie because truth and honesty are christian virtues. We've been over this. :roll:

Absolutely false. Satanists typically do NOT worship any deity at all.

You are mistaken friend. Oh and NO I'm not a Satanist. I'm Buddhist if you must know.

Who told you that? People that don't worship any deity are FUCKING ATHEISTS!

And... now stay with me... if some of those atheists want to call themselves "Satanists" to rile people like you up (and reap the tax benefits associated with churches), are they now automatically Satan worshipers?

So your telling me they Do everything a satanist does EXCEPT warship satan and i'm supposed to buy that? riiiiiiiiiight. If it looks like shit and smells like shit its shit dude.

I'll agree to disagree and leave it at that. Go live in your small-minded crap filled god-loving world. I'll go see Buddha when I'm done with it all.

Since you seem to be to much of an idiot I'll put everything destrekor in plain english for your simple mind.

LaVey's Satanism is an [/b]ATHEIST[/b] group that somehow got labeled as satanists.

Now will you kindly shut the fuck up, or do we have to futher pwn you?

Thats how the word is defined in our language. Now if they changed the definition then ok I could be wrong but what your asking is akin to how do we know that an apple eater really eats apples?

Who defined it? Some guy who had deep experience with actual Satanism, or just some schmuck that decided Satanism was what he thought it was.

Because if it's someone who had deep experience with actual Satanism, we can't trust a word he says anyway according to you.

But if it's some guy who made the definition up, then he would only be making assumptions about what Satanists actually do, with no real knowledge of Satanism and Satanists, and we shouldn't listen to him anyway.

But we know what satanists d0. We know what devil worshipping is. We know the symbolism and rituals. This is in history books for hundreds of years so I mean....I can see what your getting at if this wasn't documented well and was something as abstract and imaginary as you are implying but unfortunately its very real.

And it is a valid comparison for what he was saying, The LaVey's Satanists are a cult movement that acts as a christian counter culture (perhaps that is how they got labeled satanists to begin with). Some neo-pagans groups are similar.
