That was my initial reaction lol, but I am making the pointed effort to be neutral. They probably just don’t understand, they seem to think we actually believe in and worship Satan rather than what he represents. I avoid being aggressive so I have the opportunity to be heard, people really don’t understand Satanism and if I can enlighten them even a bit on what it really means, I’ll try to.
Oh, I didn’t know you weren’t a Satanist! The Tenets are a basic moral guideline for Satanists but also in general, it’s a very short read if you’d like to quickly learn about them. I think you and even many Christians will find these to be very reasonable and good. Unlike other religions, there is no hard and fast rules that you must obey. Just be a good person!
I just wish people took a singular moment to learn what TST Satanism is before jumping down our throats and imagining us as goat sacrificing cultists or something. Satan represents rejection of authoritarianism and tyranny, seeking out knowledge, and justice. Satanists value rationality and basing your beliefs on proven science, fighting for justice, equality, respect, and compassion. For many, it’s just politically-active Atheism, as we are nontheistic (we do not believe in the supernatural or any deities). I am an atheist, and a Satanist, TST Satanists are atheist or agnostic. It’s often described as “atheism describes what I am not (a believer in a God) and Satanism describes what I am and what I believe and value.”
That was fantastic! Thank you for the brief primer on this. I’ve been on the fence with this for a long time and while I haven’t dedicated myself one way or another; this is more or less what I try to base my day to day on.
It’s funny, you know— how you can be on the cusp of something and not really know it. I’ll read through the tenets when I get a chance. Thank you very much, Internet stranger.
I’m glad you enjoyed the rambles lol. I really appreciate your willingness to learn and try to understand, this is what the world needs more of. As a science loving and rational atheist, this was also always how I lived my life, and didn’t realize I could take it a step further and be not only with like-minded people, but help the fight for things I believe in like secularity, women’s reproductive rights, and so much more. Not only that, but I like the aesthetics of it haha. Thank you for your time
I have no interest in straying people away from God. I am interested in equality, acceptance, and freedom of religion. You have every right to believe whatever you believe in, that’s a value I hold deeply. I haven’t insulted or harassed you about your beliefs, you came to MY post to shit on it because you disagreed. Who’s the bad guy here?
The symbolic Satan I look up to is about rebelling against authoritarianism. That’s how I view him, that’s how most Satanists view him. It’s YOUR personal issue if you get offended because that authoritarian dictator is your own God in your mind. Very telling.
Be respectful and kind like your God told you that you should be.
You’re a blind fool doing exactly what the devil wants you to do. Don’t you see how making humans pursue immediate pleasure and stray away from God like in the garden of Eden might be just what the embodiment of evil wants?
How EXACTLY am I making people pursue immediate pleasure? I said like 10 times that Satanism for me and most Satanists means rebelling against authoritarianism and fighting for secularism, equality, and justice. What part of that means ‘pursuing immediate pleasure’?? I’d really like to know.
I don’t believe in the garden of eden, Eve, or Adam. The symbolism of that to Satanist means denying blind ignorance, attaining free will, and seeking knowledge.
Yes, I am! I am following Satan in that I will stand up to people like you trying to force your hateful ideology on me and my country, I will fight for equality for ALL people, and I will fight for acceptance and compassion for all human beings.
You’re forgetting it’s an actual recognized religion making real changes. Calling it edgy because you’re mad that other people have different views than you, like the kind and typical christian you are, won’t change that.
I thank this man for bringing a shit load of attention to our religion, the need for acceptance and religious liberty, and especially the hypocrisy of Christians <3

Like my dad always told me, it’s better to be the difference and not the average even if it means standing by yourself.
I’m here to learn. I don’t understand (or particularly even know) the tenets. I’m happy to listen if you have anything to say.

Hail Satan.

Unfortunately yes, we have literal satan followers gaining influence
And it will never stop! It grows stronger everyday. Keep quivering in your self-righteous boots
Hail Satan 🤘🏽
