To: zazas-l@hollyfeld.org (ZAZAS-L Satanist Elist) From: tyagi@houseofkaos.abyss.com (nocTifer) Subject: (Z) Satanism (fwd) Date: Mon, 27 Apr 1998 13:58:42 -0700 (PDT) 49980420 aa2 Hail Satan! what possible freedom (esp. ultimate) could any organization, outside some protectorate and pirate state, ever grant? does not nonmembership contain more freedom in the sense of not having to concern oneself with whether one wishes to remain a member by virtue of holding to the inevitable moralistic demands? you advocate for such things yourself by your criticism of TJ and AS. are you sure that the typical equation of "choice" with "freedom" (a la de Toqueville) which has seized so many Americans is not at work here in descriptions of Satanism and their "granted freedoms"? RE the point of joining the CoS: must there be a single point? membership may bolster an individual's flagging self-concepts sufficient to warrant their social identification as Satanists (an org somehow 'legitimizing' their claim -- this may be why so many CoSatanists begin to champion and equate the smaller for the larger category). the membership card and one's support of the org may become a badge of pride, supporting an organization which stands out clearly and publically bearing the name of the Jehovan Adversary, complete with valuable deceptions that make the projections of the conventional Christian fall weakly aside as they shall gape in futile astonishment: as when the "Nine Satanic Statements", the "Eleven Rules of the Earth" (Satan is Lord of the Earth you know), and the "Ten Sins of Satanism" (Sins? in Satanism? is that anything like 'farms in Berkeley'? muuuuuuuuuuuuu!) are valiantly traipsed before the abashed and destroyed ignoramus who was only moments ago proclaiming their petty victory of their god over the powers of This World. if one is diligent and predisposed, one may also achieve networking and/or 'agent' status within the Church, thereby both having communications with the greater body and, trusted by the High Priests, licensed to go before the public eye and proclaim the Way of Satan for all to see! what more need be included for LIFETIME membership and the chance to join the legions of those opposed to the Nazarene travesty?!!! really! feh RE what a member gets beyond some justification for identity and access to a social group: what do most clubs or groups provide beyond this? crap-laden newsletters becoming less and less relevant to the course of the individual's lifeworks, piling up in the corner as a testimony to how the monies of the organization are wasted, squandered? in a Christian culture isn't it enough to align oneself to the enemies of one's parents to demonstrate once and for all that THIS, this disgusting filth foisted upon us from insipid ancestors with the arrogance to call it "truth" and "sacredness" is completely and utterly worthy of being put down as corrupt? RE titles in the CoS: ...as I understand it ..., the titles really mean very little in comparison to how integral one may be within the structure itself. this is often true within nonprofit and membership organizations (social clubs). the titles quickly become honorary should the individual be deemed subject to hysteria or dipsomania, and they can be extracted or excommunicated by virtue of their ridiculous demands or acts. ...embarrassment, sardonicry, irritation, satire, and raucously offensive expression is the BASTION of Satanism, is it not? what better exemplars of rubbing the literati's face in Proper Behavior than the clowns who, especially while operating in the behalf of Hir Infernal Majesty (even while claiming that SHe doesnt' exist!), defy social custom and betray a total repudiation of decorum?? my understanding (and I hope to be corrected by CoSatanists who know better) is that titles are ideally not distributed as rewards for not doing bad things, but instead are awards for achievement in the world (what ToSsers have called 'selling priesthood', by the dollar no doubt :>). ...THIS should be the criteria by which the administration of this CoSatanist organization (you wait, there will be fractures and offshoots yet! ;>) should be judged. how well does it do what it says it will do, after all? of course Sammy Davis Jr. and Marilyn Manson may be examples of confirmations in this regard.... blessed beast! ________________________________________________________________________ nocTifer: tyagi@houseofkaos.abyss.com --- http://www.abyss.com/tokus TOKUS-COE Office: 408/2-666-SLUG --- Emergency Contraception:18005849911
