:siccness: so Laveysim is the best form of satanism that exists? ^^
some people call Alister Crowley a satanist...
but it looks like he was just a magickican
But there is no way Alister Crowley was really a satanist
since satanist don;t believe in supernatural things. Crowley deff believed in spirts and magick.

I guess your right the media just mixes everything .. wicca santaism.. occult.. without seeing that they are all different.

That could be true about LaVey, but from what I’ve read about him he was an Atheist and a Materialist that focused on individuality. He taught that we are all our own gods. As far as his rituals and other weird shit, I don’t think he believed any of that. It was more of a gimmick or symbolic way of saying “fuck you” to the rest of religions.

I did fail to mention that there are other forms of Satanism besides LaVeyism. There definitely have been groups of people that worship the Christian Satan as a literal entity. There have been numerous Satanic cults throughout the world but these are so rare that I rarely think of the literal Satanists. Satanism to me is LaVeyism.

what would be the meaning of an "occult" to you?

i am not to familiar with other forms of Satanism..
and honestly never realized that there was a differenc between Levy's group...and the group(s) that worship the Christian Satan..

in Levy's group is Satan a person, spirit, or God?? or lifestyle?

Cause the Christian Satan...i guess he would be referred to all of the above...correct?

sorry if im askin tomany questions..
just never thought about it before..

this is true..
i have watched to many History Channel "occult" productions...where they group together everything as an occult..

it doesnt surprise me..
everyone groups Christianity together as 1...when they really are not..
there are several forms (denominations) in christianity...
it just never entered my mind that there would be the same thing in Satanism..

Allistor Crawley......is this guy from Europe somewhere???

did he practice actual human rituals??
i think i may have heard about him before..
the name does ring a bell..

I guess those who believe in using supernatural forces like magik, etc. for their personal interests. I'm not sure, really, who exactly falls into this category (maybe HERESY could enlighten us). I myself am a materialist and do not believe in any form of supernatural phenomena, so the term "occult" really has no meaning to me. Just like the word "spiritual".

It’s a lifestyle. My understanding of LaVeyism is that they do not actually worship or believe in any higher powers - they teach that you are your own god. I'll ask my bro, who is a real life Satanist, to explain to us on this site.

but i did not want to assume..
thanks for answering..

I guess an Occult to me are a group of people that believe in 1 mans theory or practices and base there life on it...
key word "theory"..

from creation to the end of life...

interesting.....
i guess i get confused cause they mostly use the same symbols (pentagrams, etc)....and my thinking was that...they are all basically against what Christianity Teaches.....

so i automatically grouped them as servants of the Christian Satan..

Well, they do oppose Christianity. I think that’s the purpose of being a Satanist – to oppose all organized religion. Labeling themselves a “Satanist” is more symbolic or for shock value, I suppose. Satanism really is a way of life – treat others how they treat you, indulge, etc. Not exactly my cup of tea but I admire some aspects.

But yeah, as far as I know they do not believe in a literal Satan.

yeah isn't the old pentagram the ones witches have...
the right side up with... I think it means Spirit over elements....
But the satanic one is the upside down one...
and means elements over spirt... some shit like that.

What's the real meaning of the inverted pentagram though?
they always try to use it as an occult symbol in games like Doom n shit lol

^^So Pagan equals Satanic?!?
In some circles yes, in my book no. Two different concepts/dogmas/doctrines that fall into a broader category.

Do you remember a post I made a couple of months ago explaining the difference between DEMON worship and SATANIC worship?


Pagan = spiritual/religious beliefs and practices of a "natural” religion (Wicca, Astrau, etc.).

Satanism = Teachings of Anton Levay.

The Occult = "Evil" or dark supernatural forces not controlled by god (Majik, numerology, Ouija boards, Tarot cards, etc.).

A lot of the confusion does NOT come from the media. It actually comes from the people who created the "religions" or practices and borrowed from each other.

Take the circle that is used in paganism and you will find the circle in occult practices when it is time to conjure. Take some of the teachings of Levay and you will find some of them tracing to paganism and OLD religions.

It IS a lifestyle that teaches to walk amongst the heard as a HIGHER POWER!!!

It is a belief in ones own self for preservation of success once you’ve applied everything in your power(s) to achieve such a goal. Rather than relying on false hope, such as praying and going to church, the Satanist relies on what he/she is born with to get what he/she wants.

Because after all,


Satanist are born, not made!!!

I always thought it was a way of being Anti-Christian.

I'm Atheist myself and don’t believe in "da bibble" but I've always enjoyed writing 666 on objects or saying "Satan Loves You" to an innocent mid-age christian lady walking down the street. Just apart of my sense of humor and way to say or do shit that I know will freak people out. This behavior I did much more when I was younger but I still get a kick out of it every now and then.

Matter of fact I have a picture of Jesus on my refrigerator with "666" written on his forehead. It makes it all the funnier when people get offended or are shocked at things I know to be fairy tales.

HERESY said:
What gets me about satanist is the use of biblical, pagan and occultic terms yet they make the claim they don't believe in them.

Why use Baphomet, pentagrams, 666, shout "hail satan" , throw up mano cornuto and take on DEMONIC personas?

this is basically what i was getting at HERESY..

I dont honestly see what seperates a Satanist and a Occultist..
seems like the same things..

@2-0..

I have always wanted to ask you ...why you bag on "believers" (of anykind)..
i guess..for myself..the more i learn on reading..and science...and facts of life...
the less im leaning toward believe in a religion..
....MY MOTHER WOULD KILL ME!!!

but...i dont see a need to bag on folks cause of their beliefs....
i just shrug my shoulders and say..."coo, peace be with you"
