I wouldn't go into a quantum physics thread and start shooting my mouth off about it because I don't understand it. This is what you're doing.[/QUOTE]
Yeah because quantum physics is not nearly as complicated as a gimmicky religion. But yeah I can't say much else.

That's the fucking opposite of the point I'm making. Misunderstanding a "gimmicky religion" makes you much more of an idiot than misunderstanding quantum physics.

Except that Satanism isn't based in a gimmick.

No, I'm pretty sure I know the english language well enough to see spelling mistakes...
OP, you should check out [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nihilism"]nihilism[/URL]... more interesting than Satanism IMO ;)

It's the belief of nothing. No thanks.

You're assuming that a Satanist can't do this. They can if they want.
[/QUOTE]
i'm assuming he WON'T. egoism is encouraged by satanism. (not necessarily in a negative sence) the individual may not have a moral compass that makes him feel like looking out for anyone but himself. i find that morrally disgusting. a laid back relationship to the bible and the foundation of the Danish society is that you can and should spare a second if someone's doing badly for themselves.
i was raised to look out for myself and mine. but i was also taught not to be egoistic and to lend a hand where needed. this is not encouraged or discouraged by the church of satan. this means no attention to this aspect of social interaction and strong pillar in communities could be shat at, royally.

A person shouldn't need to be guilted into being charitable.
People do it for attention.
Those morals/guidelines are pretty basic, and anyone could live by them.

What's your point?
[QUOTE=Eluveitie;20334831]And yet plenty are when natural disasters destroy places...even though it had nothing to do with them.[/QUOTE]
So...? What? This is irrelevant.
Satanism is cool in my book. Don't be put off just because people see something as a 'sin' but don't do anything that harms you. That's basically how I live my life.

...Yeah... You really have no idea what you're talking about at this point. Satanism says, if it makes you happy do it. If you're happy making other people happy, then you'll keep doing it. You're being pushed into helping others, not because you want to, not because you think it's good, you act like you're an altruist, you're not. Satanism is disgusting to you? Your religion is disgusting to me. Satanism isn't morally black or evil, if you ask me, quite the opposite. Looking out for oneself is the highest moral obligation one has. Sparring a second for someone else isn't a problem, nor is it looked down upon. If it makes you happy you do it. You're being guiled into it and doing it for the wrong reasons and acting superior about it.
Whole thing still seems like an excuse for people to be dickheads to me.

And your religion is an excuse for you to be ignorant. No ones a dick to you because of Satanism. They're a dick to you because you're ignorant, willfully so.
Touchy, aren't you.
[QUOTE=Dr_Funk;20335467]Whole thing still seems like an excuse for people to be dickheads to me.[/QUOTE]
Dickheads will get treated like dickheads right back instead of being forgiven.
Sounds like a good system to me.
OP is going to Hell.
Satanism sounds like a very selfish religion.
Reminds me of the Romans, too.
Wow, I've been a Satanist all these years and never knew it.
I found this thread insightful. Rated the OP informative.
Also good job with refraining from arguing about religion guys.
[QUOTE=zeebiedeebie;20331281]True. I'll give you that.[/QUOTE]
Lies.
From what I understand of it (I've looked into this often, it interests me), in the book of revelation, the anti-christ is not necessarily one or the other. The anti-christ is
A: Everything against Christ (obviously if your not for, your against)
B: The singular entity used by satan to decieve mankind in the last days on earth

Whatever happened to forgiveness.
a good philosophy on life, but I imagine the community is full of goths.
as a religion, if you can call it that, it is one of the few I would consider joining, along with Buddhism.

Forgiveness is the sole reason wrongs don't get righted.

In my experience, goths tend to centre around theistic satanism. You'll find lots of metalheads in this one though.

Satanism and Buddhism aren't really compatible.
Religion: Same shit different pile.
[QUOTE=Mingebox;20337611]Satanism and Buddhism aren't really compatible.[/QUOTE]
I didn't mean that I would like to join both simultaneously, I meant that they are both religions that I could reasonably consider joining.
