way too much time on your hands dude

Luciferianism
* Satanism
* Setianism

Always thought these were hilarious. If you believed in Satan, wouldn't you also have to believe in God, and then in turn realize you were worshipping the most evil thing and then realize you would be doomed to eternal suffering? I guess if they could make these connections, it wouldn't be an option in the first place.

I agree with your point, but the appeal to Satanism is that a lot of it is founded on the simple principle of doing what makes you feel good. It's very pleasure-oriented, and The Satanic Bible is less about Satan and more about personal satisfaction.

Of course, that's selfish and pretty short-sighted too.

[Hank Fist]

So it's pretty much just hippies in black with daggers.

[moltar]

Yeah, the ideology is just to look out for yourself. The LaVey book is filled with terrible unnecessary shout outs. It's almost as bad of a read as that necronomicon we had.

I'm pretty sure Rino just cut/pasted wiki religion, Taylor.

[KY Jelly Belly]

Where's Scientology on here?

[kylervk]

yo, check this out... there might not be a God
