Is Satan better than God?
January 23, 2022 at 10:24 pm
The Church of Satan lays out the following 9 statements:
Anton Szandor LaVey Wrote:1. Satan represents indulgence instead of abstinence!
2. Satan represents vital existence instead of spiritual pipe dreams!
3. Satan represents undefiled wisdom instead of hypocritical self-deceit!
4. Satan represents kindness to those who deserve it instead of love wasted on ingrates!
5. Satan represents vengeance instead of turning the other cheek!
6. Satan represents responsibility to the responsible instead of concern for psychic vampires!
7. Satan represents man as just another animal, sometimes better, more often worse than those that walk on all-fours, who, because of his “divine spiritual and intellectual development,” has become the most vicious animal of all!
8. Satan represents all of the so-called sins, as they all lead to physical, mental, or emotional gratification!
9. Satan has been the best friend the Church has ever had, as He has kept it in business all these years!
Are these 9 Satanic statements better than the 10 Godly commandments?

Epicurus Wrote:The greatest reward of righteousness is peace of mind.
Epicurus Wrote:Don't fear god,
Don't worry about death;
What is good is easy to get,
What is terrible is easy to endure

According to the magic book, god killed some 27 million people.
Satan only killed 10 and even those were because god bet him to do it.
You pick.
Of course the point is moot, since neither really exist anyway.

Yes.
At least satan is a prick to your face, and not some cowardly, back stabbing, yellow bellied, weasel.

These statements are considered Satanic? Geez, I thought Satan was supposed to sound more badass than that.

Why evaluate the lesser of two evils unless one has to choose one of them?
