Who's the rest of us?

And I highly doubt that Wiccans and (the atheist version of) Satanism have the same rules. Wiccans have a very complex set of rules fitting their believes.

Here it is, if you're interested.

Others, non American wiccans have 9 rules. Most important of all, everything, the good and the evil, you do to another, reflects tenfold on you.

"The rest of us" is atheists.  Satanists are atheists.  Satan worshipers are not.  They're also pretty much non existent.

The Wiccan Rede ends in "An it harm none, do what ye will."  The Church of Satan has a similar rule, starting with "hurt no one" and ending with "do what you want to", to paraphrase.  While both have other "rules" and "laws", this one rule is often associated with each belief above all others.  Do no harm, but do what makes you happy.  The witches "rule of three", as it was portrayed in a popular movie, is an extension of that basic tenant.
Have you ever noticed all the drug commercials on TV lately?  Why is it the side effects never include penile enlargement or super powers?
Side effects may include super powers or enlarged penis which may become permanent with continued use.  Stop taking Killatol immediately and consult your doctor if you experience penis enlargement of more than 3 inches, laser vision, superhuman strength, invulnerability, the ability to explode heads with your mind or time travel.  Killatoll is not for everyone, especially those who already have convertibles or vehicles of ridiculous size to supplement penis size.
