I'm not too sure why a Satanist of all people would be offended by this. They'd probably love the chance to further enlighten people if anything.
But most tend not to spread the fact that they are one around.
How is it hilarious that you are upsetting members? That is completely disgusting behavior coming from a mod. Your job as a mod isn't to cause potential drama, mock others, and laugh at their being upset over you posting something you say isn't completely serious in a part of Nation that is meant for serious discussions. If you don't have the decency to respect the members and realize that you upsetting them isn't funny, then you shouldn't be a mod.
I also find your responses towards Episkey uncalled for, there's no reason for you to be that sarcastic or rude towards any member who is sharing their view. Stop acting like a troll, and act like a mod. You should have realized that creating a controversial thread was going to upset members.
The amount of stupidity and complete rudeness in this thread is astounding.

Even though the name has "Satan" on it, it really has nothing to do with the Satan from Christianity though...
Intolerance. tsk tsk. Such a nasty thing.
This entire thread was about explaining how Satanism is a non-theistic Atheist belief system and how it differs from what popular culture terms as Satanism, and here you have to bring your self-righteous higher-than-thou attitude in here and make it all about your precious little religion.
Let me spell it out for you: I don't give a flying **** about Occultism.
I never wanted this thread to be about Religion, well alone Christianity. The entire point was the misconceptions about Satanism.
I'm sure they just love it. That's why they rebelled, right? Because they love it so much?
They didn't follow him because they thought he was better. They followed him because they were tired of being repressed.
Why should beings be forced to worship day in and day out? Why should beings be forced to bow and kneel before others? Why should one's entire existence be about worshiping another?
It's like trying to argue that Slavery is right, just, and good. You just don't get it. You're too indoctrinated that you're blind to the idea of how wrong it all is.
I never wanted this to be about Christianity though. You can make a thread for that if you want, you're kinda hijacking this thread waging a zealous little religious war.
Nope. That's the entire point of this thread. It has nothing to do with said entities. You're still clouded by these misconceptions.
I have nothing to do with Occultism - the theistic side of Satanism. The side you would commonly picture as Satanism.
Order of Nine Angles is just an ordered Atheist belief system.
I never acknowledged the existence of it. I said some do it, sure. But if some nerd puts up candles in their basement and wears a black robe chanting nonsense, am I to say that black magic exists solely because they're practicing it?
No.
These rituals and practices exist, but as for actual magic to go along with them? Not bleeding likely. I certainly don't believe so.
Anyways, I don't believe in any of the magic nonsense, or chants or prayers. That's not to say that some people don't pray or chant, but do I give it any credibility? Absolutely not.
That's absurd.
Is "Off" a TV channel?
Is the belief that clowns should all be killed a religion?
Is the belief that grass should be blue a religion?

Of course I don't believe in what I dub as nonsense. Why would I?
I do prescribe to the Order of Nine Angles beliefs however.

Do not judge others, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn others, or it will all come back against you.[/SIZE]
You do claim to be Christian, right?
I mean you pretty much told me you hope I burn in hell. That's about the worst insult imaginable. Way to go!

@ Nith;
If you do, you're seriously an idiot. My Father made the mistake of f*cking with black magic once and ended up in a possesed-esque state. I forgot exactly what it was, but some cursed book ended up f*cking with him. My Mom couldn't get rid of it until one day it just up and vanished.
Don't mess with that sh*t.
Intolerance. tsk tsk. Such a nasty thing.

No, it's completely serious.
What I find hilarious is the way that people are reacting towards it. Intolerance, ey? Seems the pendulum doesn't swing both ways.
I make a very well organized thread specifically broken up into sections and with pictures so that it's very easy to read and understand, and I attempt to explain how Satanism has nothing to do with the Occultism people envision it as, and explain that the majority of Satanism isn't even theistic, and it's rather just an Atheistic belief system, and what happens?
I get a bunch of Hardcore Christians coming in and scoffing down at me, telling me how wrong and evil and demonic Satanism is and how they hope I burn in hell.
I made the thread specifically very organized and with ordered lists, very simple, very unoffensive, specifically so that I don't actively provoke Christians. So that we can have a discussion about Satanism and clear the misconceptions that exist.
And instead what are we discussing? Christianity.
Why? I guess some people are just obsessed.
I mean, I figured it would happen, but I expected it to a much lesser degree.
I made the thread specifically about non-theistic Satanism specifically so that it didn't involve religion, and here we are....
So, yes, I do find it quite amusing. Though, a bit sad at this point, and I really do wish we could stay on topic and talk about what I outlined in the OP, and not everyone's specific and fervent hate towards their misconceptions of Satanism that this was intended to clear up.
ARE YOU F*CKING SERIOUS!? I'm glad to know that I'm not the only victim. I usually keep this story to myself, because nobody would believe me. My father use to be a good man. He's a sailor so he travels all around the world. During his trip to Congo (I don't know why he was sent there), he told me that he bought me a book since he knows I love reading. The title was called something like Veve' or Damballa or something, I don't remember. Anyways, he's changed ever since he bought the book. When he came home a month later, I asked for the book and said that he must have lost it somewhere. Anyways, I realized that he started waking up early at night and he heads towards the cabana and he says some pretty weird sh*t when he sleeps. He told us never to go to the cabana. We didn't go since we respected him.
It was about two years ago, I was really curious, so I went into the cabana and I found that book. Anyways, he saw me go in and he went beserk. He tried to kill me. I don't want to go into details, but as you can tell, I escaped and I'm safe now. My mother called the police and my father was sent to jail for a year. He was charged with attempted murder. Anyways, I went back to that cabana and the book wasn't there. My father also disappeared from jail, so I'm scared that someone might show up when I sleep and kill me. If this has happened to you too, I don't think this is a coincidence. We need to get to the bottom of this.
Oh God I pity you.
