    Nah, Satanism is right-wing coded, sorry. Its a bunch of people who think monarchy is cool, want to talk about outdated continental philosophy & architecture, artsy libertarians, remnant new aetheists, people who wear capes and dress like 19th century vampires and such, etc. If mainstream culture is "liberal" they are going to be the non-conformists to liberal culture. Once upon a time the "counterculture" was into the occult and new age stuff, but now cruncy new-agey white people are more right-wing. Google "Curtis Yarvin" and that is what every satanist looks like lol. Anton LaVay was a fascist, politically.

    *Also, I think you are conflating "Satanism" with the Church of Satan, which arent necessarily the same thing

    Here are all my quotes from this thread. Where are the "lot" of shots at religious beliefs and religious people?

    I mean I said fake Christians do evil and argues multiple times that Satanic rituals should be protected.

    The word "lot" indicates many. Can you back your claim?

    I would add that religion is for humans trying to work their way to God through good works or what they perceive to be good. Christianity is God coming to men and women through Jesus Christ.

    If you asked the population of the world if Satanism or the Church of Satan was good or evil, you would get very few chiming in for good. Very few.

    But what if you asked them who's party they would rather go to? The one with grape juice and organ music, or the one with real alcohol, kick ass music and hedonism?

    I was specifically talking about you mocking them as pro-life and over their Religious Abortion Ritual. I'd also point to them being called "crazy", "evil" and "trolls" with no response at all from the mods over those group insults of a recognized religious organization. And all this in a thread where they were the intended victims of a right wing bombing. I mean, if this stuff is allowed, that is a relief to me.

    Obviously not true. Buddhists don't believe in a god or heaven and instead believe in reincarnation. There are only 500 million of them. Let's at least get basic facts straight.

    I apologize for being off topic, and give me all the emoji's everyone, I deserve it....
    But it seems WarDamnGator, you have been itching for a fight with the moderators since the other day's blow up.. Hoping we can all let bygones be bygones and move past this obvious anger you are passive aggressively displaying...

    I’m not angry, I just like to clearly understand the rules. I’m sure I could have done better in the past, and want to in the future, but I also think I should be allowed to express my opinions about a religious group with great influence over politics and the direction of the country without getting angry PMs.

    They believe in karma, the principle of cause and effect, where actions have consequences in this life and future rebirths. Why do atheists spend so much time talking about something they don't care about?

    You can be an atheist and a Buddhist, so I imagine those people talk alot about it because they do care

    My point was you don’t have to believe in god or heaven to be religious, which is why any attempt to discredit Satanism as a religion falls flat.

    I don't see an inherent contradiction in non-believers rejecting or even criticizing religious dogma while simultaneously taking interest in the impact that religious beliefs have on society and our laws. That's particularly true in light of the fact that many seek to use the government to promote those religious beliefs.

    He said…

    “I would add that religion is for humans trying to work their way to God… “

    Religion doesn’t require a god. It’s true that most religions do promise that if you are good and don’t masterbate too much you will improve your afterlife. Satanism is more about being a good person because it’s the right thing to do and your life on earth is all you get, so enjoy it. Oh, and masterbate all you want.
