To: fiatlvx@sard.mv.net (FiatLVX XMagick Listserv) From: tyagi mordred nagasivaSubject: Re: Satanism Date: Kali Yuga 49941213 |...(are there fundamentalist satanists?)... Here you go: "There are no categories of Satanists -- there are Satanists and nuts.... I would divide Satanic *poseurs* into several groups. These are specific tags *we* employ to identify someone who might not grasp the concept fully yet. There are various Subjective Satanists, who agree with the philosophy only to the extent that it can be used to condone their particular fetish.... There are Rock and Roll Satanists, who only know the kind of Satanism sung about by pop stars.... "Then there are the Christian Satanists, defined as those who are attracted to the iconography of Satanism but can't seem to break away from Christianity's definitions. They continue to work within a primitive framework of Good Vs. Evil, taking the part of Evil instead of Good. They rebel against Christianity, but using the same rules. They may know no more of Satanism than what they see on record jackets. It's a last-ditch effort to preserve their belief system." Anton LaVey (quoted in _The Church of Satan_, by Blanche Barton, pp 70-1.) --------------------------------------------- Please note that LaVey does not necessarily speak for all Satanists, but I'd say that a great many of them would find his words inspiring to say the least. I like what he writes says most of the time. :> Bringing you more Darkness by the hour, tyagi@houseofkaos.abyss.com (Nocifer)
