I'm surprised Colin hasn't closed this yet.

This thread isn't even that bad compared to the Conquest threads.

Satanism literally promotes being a selfish piece of ****, not even a real religion imo. Just another form of a scene kid who never grew up.

If you don't believe in god, fine. Identify as an atheist then, otherwise I feel like you're just doing it to appear edgy.

-The Church of Satan

just look at their website


not to mention every satanist I have ever talked to was ******ed, not saying you guys are..

Please, let us do what we want. If we identify as satanists, than let us identity as satanists. I'm not trying to be edgy, I doubt Vici's trying to be edgy, it's just what we feel fits us.

So you're entitled, self-indulged, and selfish?

Your church's words, not mine.  

Satanism is just scary to me.

It's not even about Satan.

It's about being an individual, knowing yourself, doing what you want, and going against the heard.

So some satanists my be that way, but I for one am not.

Unless these rituals are real, its seriously scary.  

The school of life videos are great on lots of subjects and explain things quite well that most can sum up and accept, watch the vids and listen:

Posted this on another thread but also a part on religion and belief and why countries more believe about a god than other countries:

Sorta off topic but the USAF recognizes my religion as Jedi. Pretty dope.


I actually consider myself Deist though, I'm down with the teachings of Christ but don't believe he is God or and parts of The Bible. I've tried real hard to have some faith but it just isn't for me I guess. I'm too uneducated/uninterested to understand how the Big Bang works since ultimately it doesn't matter in my life how we came to be; so I believe in creationism. I personally love living like this, I have no concerns about death or life.

Well, heresies to Christianity are like copyright problems (comparing)

I think the logic behind it is that God gives you an infinite amount of second chances throughout life, however once you are dead, there is simply nothing else you can do (because they're dead).

i can see the reasoning, but for what I've heard, heaven being eternal life and all that, wouldn't you still have more chances to be forgiven? Unless it's like life, but you somehow don't sin at all? Either way the whole topic of heaven is confusing, but I definitely want to believe that it exists, since none-existence seems rather depressing.

My personal belief is that hell is more prison-like, where you are put in until you see the wrongness of your actions, and you become a better person. And that heaven is just another life, where you can still do wrong, where you may struggle, but where people will always be willing to help you along the way. More "flawed paradise" as opposed to "eternal happiness".

Some people's concept of heaven just seems so hedonistic to me. If you only ever feel happiness, then happiness will lose its meaning.

Not that im right, I may not be, but either way it's what I've come to believe.

The Bible explains that we can't come close to comprehending many things, such as eternal life, perfection, Heaven, etc. It sounds confusing, impossible, and sometimes I even think living forever in one place would be awful, but I can't even comprehend what it really is like from my life om Earth.  

What makes Jesus so different from other Greek gods like Zeus etc? Why do people
Clearly say oh ya that's a myth it isn't possible to have a God of water or etc, yet they believe in God/jesus, someone who rose back from the dead? Ya ok makes sense I guess
