Topic: Soooo.... What religion are you? | |
---|---|
lily it is beyond me, really, I had been forced into paganism as a child and all i have is really bad memories, so I do know a little and the bit I know I don't like, so there Ok so the truth comes out. You had a horrible experience with Paganism as a child and ever since all Paganism to you is considered "satanic" and "of the devil." Well, guess what? I've had some pretty horrible experiences with Christians, Christian churches, and Christianity in general from the time I was a child into my adult life... and you know what? I did the whole thing of lumping all Christians into one basket so to speak for me to hate.... it gets really old after a while. Pretty soon a really great Christian pops their head up every once and a while and makes you rethink why you're hating all Christians. One day you will be asking yourself "Is it worth lumping all Pagans into one basket? Is it worth hating all of them just because a few treated me horribly?" One day you will get there my dear. You can imagine what you want about me, but unless I actually told you the details you can only guess, and it isn't just one bad experience, and from your attitude I can tell that you are where you belong. Anyone that worship satan is not a good person to me, and if you have a problem with that, that is your problem, not mine I want to ask you something... do you believe that Big_Jim worships Satan just because he calls himself a Satanist? Do you believe I worship Satan just because I practice witchcraft even though I worship the Holy Trinity which I see as Father God, Mother Goddess (the Holy Spirit), and their son Jesus the annointed one? What to you is a Satanists EXACTLY? Give me details... what to you is a Satanist? I know this question wasn't directed at me but I thought it made a good point...I will have to do some research now...thanks. |

I don't think it's fair to judge others beliefs, regardless of how you feel about them.
"Judge not lest ye be judged" |

the names says it all No it doesn't. Big_Jim believes in the philosophies of The Official Church of Satan that was founded by Anton LaVey even though he is not an official member of the church. LaVeyan Satanists are basically athiests. They do not believe in a diety called Satan. Satan to them is an ideal.... ideals which Big_Jim tried to clue you in on earlier in this thread... which you obviously didn't bother to read. Now if we were talking about Luciferian Satanists then you would be right. Luciferian Satanists believe in a real diety called Satan and they worship Satan as their God. As for me, I'm not a Satanist, LaVeyan or Luciferian... however I do agree with some of Anton LaVey's philosophies. But I do NOT worship any Diety named Satan. You are nothing more than a troll. I suggest that anyone reading this just ignore this woman, 2much4u. Do NOT feed the trolls. |

That's a GREAT philosophy! Seriously it is, and I applaud it. I only hope for the sake of those you encounter that your worship of indulgence includes a code of not harming others in the process. It is actually in the Satanic Bible. Do what you wish without harming others. Harming others means leaving the country or jail. How could I enjoy my carnal desires if I am always on the run? It's detremental to my whole philosophy to hurt someone. Not intending judgment in any way, shape, form or fashion I have an honest question. As far as I can see, your philosophical requirements could easily be met by Epicurean Hedonism, so why drag Ol' Nick into it? He's just as fictional as.....well....some others. Is it the shock factor, when you get to say "I'm a Satanist.", or what? |

I must admit, I do enjoy the shock factor. It's really fun when I announce my religion to a newfound aquantance. I posted it on here as a way to be honest. I will not hide what I am for any one.
I do share some Luciferian beliefs.... Such as the faith in Satan. We have covered the point that LaVey Satanists don't believe in any higher power than themselves. I guess it's a throwback from my christianity. I'm not a perfect Laveyan, but I don't care. I am not a perfect anything. |
