it is a pack of BS patterned after Christianity but the rituals are done backward as if there is magic power in saying the lords prayer in reverse . utter nonsense
Generally I think you could divide them into two distinct groups:
The LaVeyan satanists who don't actually worship Satan or any other deity. They're more or less very eccentric hedonists and individualists - they worship the ideal of pleasure in all it's forms, regardless of whether it's acceptable by society's and other religious norms
Then you have the nutcases who genuinely believe they're doing Lucifer's work, engaging in occult rituals that often include human sacrifice (unwilling at that).
Of course there are the posers, who use the guise of Satanism to make a statement or just because they want to appear different.
It's all a bunch of rubbish if you ask me. No less than any other religious movement.
This is where you need to find out why so many of us fail to achieve the right solution to solve most of the problem about ourselves. Something inside us is prone to feel the taste of pride, greed, envy, lust, anger, sloth and gluttony. These are the satanic verses which has been preached inside us to make us lose the true sense of our own human character.
What is a human and where is that characteristic pattern? We have taken some pseudo artificial copy of something which was never human. Check yourself out.
Satan is the biggest enemy of man kind and this is not a joke! only if we had clear understanding.
Like in any film you watch there is a Villon or negative character, like was the Satan is a real Villon in re all life.
To understand the Satan it is not easy. if one is not aware of the tricks, and that how he traps people in wrong doings and Beond.
In any circumstances to be safe and secure one must always be aware of the negative characters around them, or else who ever is trying to see the downfall will succeed.
To combat these characters we will have to psychologically understand the such a nature of the people and the cause?
If we go make to our birth we'll understand that as a child we were not given a such a nature. may be some % of it but then again it might have been because of the influence our parent/guardians.
You would notice that children's with good bringing up would have a positive approach and vice verse.
To say to be born with a evil mind is wrong. it is how we later develop in the hands of the Satan because up till now we haven't discovered who our re all enemy is.our minds are easily controlled by the evil thoughts of Satan.
I believe we all are connected to each other in a positive or a negative way.So if we are good we will be good for the society if bad then bad for the Society.
Now day's it is a very sad to say that majority of us are on the negative side of things. I can give you plenty of examples for instance lying has become widespread like a disease, sometime one lie leads to many. unfaithfulness is another big practise which is also widespread and it just goes on. I have only given just two examples which i think are enough to cause destruction in our lives.
All this is work of the Satan. I believe no man is bad but one we let go of our selves that's when we become bad.
To fight against the Satan now we need to find out how we can be saved and where can the help come from. so that we can save the Society and save our selves and bring back peace in our hearts and minds.
That aid can only come from our creator the creator of all beings.
There is only one creator so it's not hard to find him.
Most people confuse the word Satanism with devil worship ping. The words are today used in a synonymous way, but this is actually a mistake. Or perhaps the misuse of this term is because it seems to refer to Satan, the evil force of Christianity. But this is simply not the case. Satanism and devil worship ping are not related.
Devil worship ping is a religion (actually a part of Christianity), based on the worship of the evil force of Christianity; Satan. In doing this, a devil worship per worships evil. And, to be a devil worship per, you have to believe in Christianity, or at least part of the Christian teaching. But you have to be religious and believe in the supernatural in order to worship the devil (it makes no seance to first claim that you are an atheist, and then claim that you worship Satan!). You have to have faith, in short.
Satanism has nothing to do with this. The philosophy of Satanism started as a movement against the tyranny of the Christian church. The Satanists turned crosses up side down, read psalms backwards, etc, in order to show the world their dissociate with Christianity. Later on, it has developed into a form of philosophy, using Satan as a symbol of anti-Christianity. This philosophy is more positive to the individual, and the life right here and now. It also has a different view on moral, and focus more on the individual instead of being a servant of a god. Hence, a Satanist can be a atheist (and I think that Satanism works best combined with atheism), but in order to be a devil worshiper, you have to have faith and believe in the supernatural.
A modern form of Satanism believes in the supernatural, magic and "unearthly" creatures. For example, in the Satanic Bible (written by LaVey, and a common book among modern Satanists), magic and rituals are described. This book is actually... quite silly, since it first seems to be agnostic, and then in the end tells you how to use magic! But this modern version is not the original version of Satanism.
Devil worship ping worships an evil force and violence.But a Satanist does not have to be evil. The sheer belief of a Satanist does not make him evil. Unless your definition of evil means that you do not believe in the Christianity. But the time when Christianity had monopoly on moral is long gone!
God and the Devil are backwards.

The Origins of Satanism
Satanism is not a Christian invention
Satanism predates Christianity and all other religions
Satanism is not about spooks, goblins, vampires, Halloween monsters or other related entities
Satanism is not about "evil"
Satanism is not an invention of, or a "reaction" to Christianity
Satanism is not a creation of Anton LaVey
Satanism is not about death
True Satanism is about elevating and empowering humanity to reach equality with the Gods, which was our True Creator (Satan's) intention
"IN THE SECRET OF MY KNOWLEDGE THERE IS NO GOD BUT ME"
-SATAN
From "Peace Be Unto Him"
Due to centuries of misinformation, lies, and the systematic removal of knowledge, few people these days understand or even know what ?Satanism? really is all about.
Christianity has been at liberty to dictate without any opposition, what they CLAIM Satanism to be. In order to accomplish this, the truth had to be destroyed. The Catholic Church (the original Christian Church, from which all Christian sects have evolved), heinously tortured to death and mass-murdered millions of innocent men, women and children in what was known as "The Inquisition." Some children who were burnt to death in what were known as "witch houses" were as young as two years of age.?
Christians forever rant and rave concerning the "one world order" where all identities, cultures, personal privacy's, and liberties will be lost and humanity, after being systematically bar-coded, will be lumped into a one-world slave state. What they fail to see is how their own so-called "religion" and bible have always been and are the roots of and blueprint for this regime. Everything in the Judeo/Christian Bible has been stolen and corrupted from religions predating Judaism, Christianity, and Islam from hundreds to thousands of years. Through Judaism and its tool of Christianity, all of the original spiritual teachings from around the world, (which are CONCEPTS) have been stolen from, lumped together into the "one," and corrupted into Jewish archetypes and characters and fictitious places. This has given the Jewish people as a whole a false history, political power and "spiritual" authority to which they are not entitled.
The bible is a very powerful subliminal tool to control the masses. One can see this is a man-made work as there are endless contradictions. The bible has been systematically drummed into the minds of the populace from a very early age. A lie must always be enforced as opposed to the truth which can stand on its own. Because spiritual knowledge and occult power have been removed and kept in the hands of a "chosen" few, the unknowing populace has been helpless against it. The agenda here is to create a one-world slave state with the "chosen" few ruling at the top. The perpetrators of course blame Satan to create a necessary distraction, while they use occult power to accomplish their ends. They have a history of stealing from and blaming their enemies for everything they really are and do, while always holding themselves in the highest esteem and innocence.
The original religions now known as "Satanism" (by the way, "Satan" means "enemy" in Hebrew), were all based upon what is known as the "Magnum Opus" or Great Work. The one known as "Satan" is our True Creator God. He was prevented by the other Gods from finishing his work on humanity, that of the godhead. The godhead is physical and spiritual perfection. Now, if you continue to read on, I will prove this.
The serpent is seen everywhere in ancient relics and structures. The serpent was held sacred in all areas of the ancient world. Satan is the God Ea, aka ENKI, one of the first of the Nephilim to arrive on this planet and establish the first civilization. In Sumerian mythology, Enki's symbol was always the serpent.
The serpent represents the DNA, the life force and the kindling and has survived as the emblem of the American Medical Association and Veterinary medicine, where it is symbolic of life and healing. Only with the coming of Judeo/Christianity, has this sacred symbol been desecrated and blasphemed.

Perhaps you should read the satanic bible. Its much shorter than the christian bible. It is also strait forward and to the point. Also, its a great read.
