| yeah i knew some kind of comment like that would come up, but i didnt specify. Actually i wasnt refering to Satanism. They dont even believe in Satan. They only use him as a symbol of rebellion. I meant Satan from christian/catholic religion. You know, the bad guy. aka, the devil, lucifer, belzebu |

Dude why don't you just quit while you're ahead, you obviously have no clue what you're talking about. Whether or not you call yourself an agnostic, you're still stuck in the Christian quicksand and don't seem to understand anything about other religions. Satanists do believe in Satan (duh) and it's no more about "rebellion" than Wicca is. You only consider it rebellion because you consider Christianity the "rules."
Bah, I've had enough of this guy. Friggin' Texans are all a bunch of religious nuts. |

No Nellie, that didn't answer my question. I asked you why the years 18-32 are missing in the bible. That's quite the chunk of time if you ask me.
Heh, this is somewhat on the topic. I was at ULTRA this weekend, and some man was standing there, telling us we were all going to burn in hell for listening to EDM. Guess what- He was a Christian. |
That's not cordial though.. What is ULTRA? I don't think I've heard of it. |

Have you been living in a box? How can you sign up on tranceaddict and not know what ULTRA is? It's a huge music festival that took place on Saturday. 50 000 people, over 200 DJs. Tiesto, PVD, Ferry, Junkie XL, Johan... it's during WMC... the Winter Music Conference. |

I'm not living in a box. But, I'm not able to do much anymore..
But, it sounds pretty awesome. I'm not a major major trance listener. But,I do like trance. I tend to stick with hardcore,happy hardcore,and rave more often. |

Yeah, i think you are the one who dosen't understand , so here is some information for you before you start tossing bull critisism

I got this from a Satanist webpage with information about Satanism and their symbols and beliefs. http://www.dpjs.co.uk/modern.html
Apparently, they consider it asign of rebellion. And no i don't consider Christianity the rules, what gave you that idea? just because i chose to debate against a dip like you? anyways here is what Satan represents to Satanists.
| quote: | Satan is not a real, living entity, conscious or a physical thing that can be interacted with. It is a symbol, something ethereal, something that basically doesn't exist except as an emotional attachment and personal dream. Just like Buddhists do not worship Buddha, Satanists hold up Satan as an ultimate principal rather than an object of literal worship. Satan inspires and provokes people, like all (honest) religions the ultimate point is self-help. God believers have a different opinion on what Satan is, but their opinion is a result of their religion. Satanism's Satan is much more eclectic and multicultural than to be defined by Christianity or Islam.
Satan is the dark force in nature representing the carnal nature and death of all living things. Satan is the best word to describe our powerful and independent symbolic figurehead and our opposition of God and organized religion accords with even traditional views of Satan(REBELLION). The materialism of Satanism (even the spiritual components are highly reductionist) is a direct challenge of God, Allah, and all or other religious symbols. Satan wishes to replace God. The Christian Bible and other artefacts of religion may be plundered and misused as required as they're merely Human inventions. The social engineering aspect shows through with our imagery and style, we control people with it. |
And you can find more information on how Satan is not real tot he Satanists, and he is just a symbol if you do a little bit of research instead of being a head.

Let's clarify here:

True. They don't consider Satan to be a real living conscious physical entity. Christians do not consider God to be a real living conscious physical entity that can be interacted with either. Perhaps they are more spiritual and abstract with their beliefs than Christians are, but that does not mean they don't "believe in" Satan - they just don't believe in the same Satan that Christians do. You're grasping at straws here - as the page itself says, the religion draws parallels with Buddhism, and saying that Satanists don't believe in Satan is about as good as saying that Buddhists don't believe in Buddha.
| quote: | | Apparently, they consider it asign of rebellion. |
To which you quote:
| quote: | | Satan is the best word to describe our powerful and independent symbolic figurehead and our opposition of God and organized religion accords with even traditional views of Satan. |
I took out the "rebellion" word because that wasn't actually on the page. Please tell me that you are not saying that opposition to God and organized religion is rebellion. I am opposed to God and organized religion, am I rebelling? The word rebellion applies specifically to a government or an established convention (LOOK IT UP), of which Christianity is neither.
| quote: | | And you can find more information on how Satan is not real tot he Satanists, and he is just a symbol if you do a little bit of research instead of being a head. |
Thank you. I've done my research. The extent of your research, on the other hand, was likely that google "quickie" you pulled out of your ass 5 minutes before you posted that.
Damn, you are just such a whiney, self-righteous, overweening Christian!!!

Im as much a whiney, self righteous, overweening "christian" as you are a ****. and..
Actually this guy pulled it out
dude, dont just spill comments like that...oh yeah and if you do some research of satanism im sure you will find Satan is a symbol of rebellion. And you can rebel against anything, not just your government.
edit: oh yeah and i found this
| quote: | "Satan is not a conscious entity to be worshipped, rather a reservoir of power inside each human to be tapped at will"
"Satanism: The Feared Religion" by Peter Gilmore
|
Unlike Satanists, Christians DO worship God. Contrary to what you said in one of your posts. |
|
|
| DigiNut |
AlbertoR, You obviously can't seem to understand the difference between worshipping something and believing in it. I'll leave you to figure that out on your own, and once you do, reread my previous post to you.
As for the rebellion, it is a symbol of rebellion only to Christians or people who were previously Christian. End of discussion. |

Black cloaks and pentacles, that’s us too. Hollywood fears us and right wing fundamentalists hate us. Legend has us murdering and having sadistic and depraved ceremonies all in the name of Satan. When you speak the word Satanist, do you believe these sources? Fear and hate us if you will, but read the truth, The Street Satanist. Articles by avowed Satanists
Hollywood will titillate. Christian Fundies will tell shocking and vicious lies. The Street Satanist is brought to you by Reason and Intellect. More Satanic virtues you will find inside.
Pssst… Here is the funny part… We don’t even believe in Satan! |

Oh whats that? Satanists don't believe in Satan? Guess i was right
| quote: | | Satanism and devil worship are two distinctly different animals. Devil worship is what it is: the worship of an external deity (in this case, a "devil"), much as it could be labeled inverse Christianity -- that is, confining yourself to the Christian religion and overall model, but merely choosing the "bad guy" in their Bible instead of the purportedly central character. The Satan in Satanism is an archetype, one many know by name and is relative to the culture. |
The first is Devil Worship, of the Devil depicted by christianity. Which was really what the joke i said to Arctic was all about.(page 32) Then someone came and changed it to satanism which wasn't what i was talking about. See you really got worked out about a simple joke that wasnt even referred to you.
Maybe Satan is not a symbol of Rebellion for the Satanists, whatever, i was wrong. But you were wrong as well, as they do not believe in him. That's all i wanted to say.
PS. This thred is way out of topic now |
