If that were true, LV Satanism would be a completely redundant invention, since there already was atheism. So either you missed something there or LV satanism is a useless word. Ask them, they will tell you whether your impression is correct.
The word itself means nothing, it's just used to scare off religious people. Besides surface elements, what makes them any different?
