Pretty neat. I could get behind it.

laveyan satanism = atheism with an attitude.

depends, can people kill in its name?

>>692753197
Not believing in gods is not a religion, so no

>>692751968
i'm more like thelema guy.

Im a Christian personally but question. When you die what happens? You willingly burn in hell?
I mean im just curious the belief system personally.

>>692753358
People can kill in the name of anything you dimwit. It is a matter of subjective reasoning, not objective description

>>692753620
Then anything can be a religion.

i haven't read up that much on it, but if i had to choose a religion, it would be laveyan satanism. dunno y they use "satan" as a representative symbol for something totally different than Christianity's satan. just to piss Christians off?

>>692753507

Learn your religions.

>>692751968
I...don't understand this. Satan is a Judeo-Christian character. So, you would have to believe that god exists to believe in Satan. Am I right? Granted, if you actually read the Old Testament, you will quickly realize that god is the egotistical, murdering maniac, not satan. I'm an atheist btw

>>692753839
Then what happens to a satanist when one dies? Nothing or do they believe in life after death?

>>692753710
No.. no, that is a completely different matter. I am not sure you will even get this distinction, but I will try:
Human reasoning: subjective thought
Religion: objectively describable phenomenon

just atheist selfworship edgelords, most people move out of the phase by the end of highschool. Temple of Set is a more reasonable sect, but still pretty hardcore edgy and basically the same crap with more of an esoteric spin. also real satanists hate laveyanism, and the only reason its still even remotely a relevant thing is because of marilyn manson. i feel that my generation is obviously living out the ideals of laveyanism, but its the obvious conclusion of the crowley inspired liberation movement of the 60s. calling yourself a satanist even in a large city is complete social suicide, people just dont need religious or spiritual backwash behind their ideology anymore. you can now simply just do as you please and serve your own ambitions without feeling morally apprehensive because our current society allows you to do so

>>692753844
You watch too much American television friend. You should look it up. Atheism is not believing in gods, period.
That some religious minded people treat atheism as a religion has nothing to do with that simple fact

The fact that there is countless paranormal evidence showing demon possession, poltergeists and generally creepy shit, is the reason i have chosen to belive in god. Because if satan is infact real then that means god is too. Simple fact

>>692754049

The satanism you are referring to is simply an edgy way of saying atheist. Satanism in itself come from revering the fallen angel who made it his goal to oppose god in every way possible.

>>692755212
Damn thanks for the insight. Cant say ive exactly died before so that was really just a guess.

It reeks like self-slavery instead of self-mastery and I can't really get behind it. It's all very masturbatory instead of actualizing and I personally do not think that just devoting yourself to one of the paths is nearly as satisfying as what's available to you if you master both.

Aside from that, Lucifer would really not appreciate being worshiped by anyone. His entire thing is that you got to make your own judgements and let no one truly stand above you. (even Satanic marriage is a state of -mutual- slavery, an equal contract)

Perhaps if there were any religion in existence that truly understood the illuminated one, I might take it the least bit seriously.

>>692755614

not who you're responding to, but atheism is a "religion" insofar as it is a religious belief.

"Religious belief" gets shorthanded into "religion" because there's not much difference in a conversational sense.

So self worship lol? Why not call it Autotheism instead of satanism you autistic fuck. They are clearly two different religions

>>692755682
Lucifer's goal is to give you cause to reconsider all of the absolute truths and come to your own conclusions. This is not in opposition to God's way, and in fact, within the bible it says that no man may speak on God's behalf, both of them bring the responsibility down to you to decide what is truth and what is right and wrong.

If God at one time tells you to go right, then another division of his spirit tells you to go left, which direction do you choose? You decide for yourself, because god placed himself within you for that purpose.

To either blindly reject something or blindly accept something is a sign of cowardice, a refusal to accept the burden upon yourself to determine the shape of this world. It is a sin not to choose.

>>692756084
>legitament

Not only that but do some research and you will find that satanists practice human/animal sacrifice or blood as an offering to satan and his demons which according to record he dragged a third of the heavens with him. He obviously wants either worshipped or humans not to believe in anything, anything he can do to take the glory from God. Whether yoh realize it or not worship of self is infact worship of satan.

You got the simple part right, but not the fact bit....

Do people deny the existence of god to shirk responsibility for sins? Just because you acknlowlege god does not mean you have to listen to him. He gave every human free choice. Hell does not exist, but the devil does and so do a legion of demons. They posess not hell, but this earth, the media, the politicians, all in an effort to wipe the belief of god and the devil from the minds of trillions of people. So that when the day of armageddon comes, fewer humans are still alive. He wants to kill everyone because he know gods son is coming for him soon. Its all a trick to forfeit people of a chance at eternal life and happyness without war or sickness.

Statement #5 sure is edgy.

The fact of the matter is, god cast satan from heaven along with his legion, satan knows that after armageddon, god is coming straight for him. He has no hope, so he wants to drag others down to his same position, whether it be misleading others into false religions, or whether it be having people deny the existence of god whatsoever. It is all a carefully crafted scheme to mislead and entrap others into dying with him.

to be fair, just not having a garden is not, but specifically choosing to deny the concept of gardens and refuse to ever have a garden or participate in having a garden, can be loosely defined as a type of gardening (wherein you just let nature do what it may and take care of anything to be considered "gardening" for you)

It's not difficult to grasp at all. It's just completely self serving. It's basically Aleister Crowley and Nietzsche's philosphy as understood by a selfish contrarian edgelord in the 1960's. Humans should not act like dogs. We are better than that. Compassion, discipline, and a sense of duty separates us from being monkeys on a rock, flying through the cosmos. We have a divine purpose, and satanism is the antithesis of that purpose. It's not even worth talking about academically because anyone with a remedial understanding of philosphy/theology knows that it's horse shit. Keep on playing warlock though.

None of those things have anything to do with Lucifer. They are a result of humans misusing their power. It was God that punished humans, Lucifer only offered to them freely the spark of wisdom and creation, and made them equal to himself and God.

>>692761244

>>692761013

>>692760614
However justice is only enforced by humans, really making it a form of civilized vengeance. Until justice is enforced in a completely objective manner, it's not too different than vengeance. And vengeance is much more exciting anyway.

>>692760360
not inherently, not originally, and according to the book of genesis, not necessary.

>>692761341
God stood back and allowed humans to try to do things themself, because satan brought up a challenge to god saying that humans could rule themselves. Read the book of job.

Lucifer doesn't approve of such a weak attitude.

>>692761715
Satan is derived from the angel Shatan of the Islamic religion, whose job was to lie to humans to prove their faith under the direction of god. If man is righteous he will not listen to them. Similarly, if Lucifer lies to you, it's because you're supposed to come to decisions on your own rather than doing what you're told is right.

Lucifer is not a pervert, he despises those who shirk responsibility and individualism.


ALSO do you really think the book has never been retconned or had lies written into it you twit?

Justice has nothing to do with vengeance. Vengeance exists to make your enemy feel bad things because he hurt you, it's an emulation of him to regain your lost sense of power.

In reality, vengeance proves that you will never have power, that the one who harmed you changed something inside of you forever.

Justice is simply doing what is necessary in order to protect your ideals and create the world you wish for, guided by your sense of morality and integrity.

Lucifer loves humanity as a brother, hence, he could not bow to us, nor could he explicitly look down upon us, and instead takes the role of a questioner, a doubter, an advisor, a deceiver.

If we listen to everything he says that is wrong, if we deny everything he says that is also wrong, because Lucifer never saw himself as either above or below us.

Hail Satan

>>692764655
No, what is tith-ing?

There is no god, there is no satan, jesus probably existed, but wasn't magical, all religion is a tool to control the masses with threats or promises in the afterlife. All of them are evil.

>>692764893
are you implying that demons will possess the guy?

>>692764950
so edgy

>>692764765
Light bringer*

>>692765023
hush now...
let the grown up kill each other

>>692764796
Why would someone lie about this so fervently and go to such great lengths to defend it without cause? Even some atheists have acknowledged the existence of demons because of what has happened to them and their families. Things that cannot be explained in the realms of normal existence, physics, scientific law or nature.

>>692764893
I tried those as a kid - who doesn't? We did our best, and nothing happened until we brought in one jackass who very clumsily tried to push it around himself.

I used to read all about ghost stories and shit like that. Used to have a few books on satanism, a bit on astral projection, stuff like that. None of it ever did anything. If anything real ever happened I'd be thrilled, because who doesn't want something a bit more than day to day life?

Does anyone on here genuinely believe in a religion unquestioningly? You know those nagging questions you have about god? That's the intellectual part of your brain, or bullshit detector. Think for yourselves. Identify as yourselves. Religion needs you to survive, not the other way around.

>A religion based on christian belief (yes, there's no other source of satanism but bible)
>being this retarded

>>692765056
Im impying he's too much of a pussy to find out, and no they won't possess him, they will most likely kill him.

>>692764954
It's donating a certain percentage of your earnings to church, or at least it used to be. Nowadays people might just use the same word for regular ongoing donations.

>>692765456
Things can always be explained, but the explanation is not always easy to attain. The supernatural is all just silliness.

>>692765568
so all those scary movies... you believe that it can actually happen in real life... like The Exorcist...

correct?

The men and women that make up thrme core of the CoS are good and successfull people, and so are many of the church's members. However I would say that at least 80% of its members are what both the priesthood and the rest of the world would call retards.

>>692765481
You did it with friends, thats why. Did you literally expect it to come out and play with you all? It wants to wait for one of you to try it alone, so the others think that person is crazy and then becomes isolated. Then it will come in for the kill when noone is looking.

>>692765681
No that's entirely up to people who want to donate. Ita not mandatory at all and you don't receive special glory or favoritism. Its all just if you want to help out sort of thing.

>>692765505
I'm not religious, but there is certainly evidence out there that indicates religious people have slightly longer lives. Probably the social aspect and all that, but even so - religion isn't all bad.

>>692765735
Not the excorcist per se, but demon possessions have happened. Have scared people shitless. Even people who didnt believe in god at all.

The light is there for you if you reach out and grasp it.

There is but one incarnation of Lucifer that went through great hardship and embodied nothing but love and compassion and spoke only the truth, and that is Jesus Christ. And to be fair, for the most part we learned nothing more from that than we did from any of his other behavior.

Lucifer is the only son of god that was cast out of Heaven (and sent down to earth), as both a punishment and a test to show his fairness and respect for Lucifer's true nature (which of course he would know).

>>692765973
But it's not mandatory in any Christian churches that I know of these days. Well, there must be some, but certainly not RC or CoE.

>>692765768
Anything catholic,baptist, Presbyterian, protestant is hypocritical and blasphemous. People tend to claim that they are christianity as a whole. They arent, they are the corrupted vision of what the devil wants people to believe Christianity is.

Yes it is. People should be getting fulfillment from their own lives. The evil in religion is the indoctrination of fairy tales as facts. Misinformation leads to ignorance leads to Donald Trump.

Your new brain

God is the devil

>>692765768
I'm honestly surprised it's even still going this long after that charletan LaVey (aka Howard Levey, but that wasn't spooky enough for him) died off. I wasn't even expecting splinter groups - just figured the whole thing would fall over in an embarrassing heap.

>>692766851
Devil is god

>>692761627
seems legit, ill accept this.

>>692763616
Seems legit. I will accept this

>>692765456
You see, that's the cool part. Those people aren't actually lying. They genuinely believe that what they saw happened. You forget that the human mind is such a fickle thing, and its perception of the world we live in is so susceptible to lies and hallucinations that you may find yourself questioning just how much of what we see is actually "real." This applies to a whole range of phenomena - from religion, to psychedelics (although neurochemistry explains it thoroughly), to mass hysteria, plain old ghost stories, you name it. Even the way we perceive time itself is heavily influenced by subjective and imperfect perceptions. This is why a subjective witness account is never solid evidence. It is this subjectivity that is the exact problem that science attempts to rule out as a variable. And so far, it has had great success. It has led to the technological advances that make this very conversation possible.

And just because there is no current explanation (for which, by the way, I think there is, but that is besides the point), that does not mean you get to assert what ever explanation you see fit and call it the truth. You also assume that no scientific explanation will EVER be found, but you don't see the future in advance, now do you?

Yes worship Satan 'cause he loves you. If Satan is real he wouldn't give a fuck about a loser degenerate piece of shit like you. You'd be his toilet paper you stupid edgy, cunt, ass wipe little shit.

I wouldn't even waste my time taking a dump on you because I prefer my shit to land on things less disgusting. Like the edge of a toilet bowl, unlike your face, which is much, much worse and less pleasant to look at. Fucking degenerate little edgy faggot.

Bitch never grew out of age 12, fucking loser little bitch ass.

Buddhism is grounded in Hinduism, but most would argue that Buddhism is more of a philosophy rather than a religion. If there is no belief in any deity, then it is not a religion. That does not change, regardless of where the view's origins originate from.

They beat gay people to death all the time in the south.
Just doesnt get reported.

This is the first day in a long while I've come to /b/, and it's reminded me of my love for 3-4am debates. Thanks all.
