I find this thread quite interesting, for I've always wondered what satanism is about but never really looked it up.

But after reading, I have to say what you describe sounds like a kind of protest/rebellion/provocation religion, modeled to be something like an antithesis/opposite to the common mainstream religion while actually not really diverting much from the original concept. Like someone who believes in god but who has a problem with the mainstream religion of the people around him, considering it too common, boring, old-fashioned and restrictive. To me it sounds like assigning the same old god a new cool name and slightly different attributes.

I would guess that many people who believe in this do not feel really accepted by the society they're living in, probably people who are also dressing in an uncommon way that is meant to communicate "I'm sooo different from you, I don't belong to you and I don't want to be like you, I'm special". Probably a lot of rebellious teenagers who feel misunderstood.

NO. THIS IS NOT A FUCKING PROTEST. THIS IS NOT A REBELLION OR REACTION TO CHRISTIANITY.

Please read the front page www.JoyOfSatan.com

It is not a protext, rebellion, or provovation religion. It is based upon a God that predates the christian God. His name is Enki, the serpent in the garden of Eden. In the original story he WAS A GOD, NOT A SNAKE. OUR GOD IS *VERY* different then the "same old God' ours is an OLDER, WISER, NONCREATED GOD. He is the reincarnation of Melek Ta'us, the bird who layed the egg of the universe(metaphor, the egg is the big bang). He is also the son of mother nature. I feel very accepted by society. Do you know how I act in normal day to day life? I'm a normal person, well accepted, well liked. I'M NOT ALLOWED TO TELL PEOPLE THIS STUFF IN REAL LIFE. I do dress uncommon though, because dressing without flair and glamour sucks. I dress like a rockstar, goth, emo, or homosexual. Usually combinations of all of those. Just like the look. I'm not doing it to go against the herd for the sake of going against the herd. I'm doing it because when I catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror I like to go "Oh hey you sexy well dressed beast, let's fuck hard, you and me right now, let's do it. Hard. All night. All day." Yep. That's what's up.
