RE: SATANISM
Well, satan just called me. (Her weekly bitch session)

She was really miffed by this thread.

I won't repeat what she said, but basically, you are no longer welcome in hell.

Have a nice day.

Anybody else ever read a story about a guy who puts robots in sealed domes so they can help rebuild the world after a big war? The memorable part is one robot had a bible in his dome and when he came out the rubes that survived the Big One addressed him by his designator, "SA-10".

RE: SATANISM
Am I a Satanist? Depends on who you ask. To many Christians, satanist is everyone who is not in their religion, including people of other religions (even other Christian denominations). Thus the Baphomet is named after the old name for Mohamed which is Mahomet.

And since Christianity is a primitive xenophobic cult, Christians generally can not understand how someone does not believe in their god, so they automatically consider these people to be Satanists, communists, antichrists, etc.

Therefore if you don't believe in a Christian god or you played D&D or you like Star Wars or watch horror movies or have orgasms during sex that is not procreational or believe in evolution or think rationally, some Christians out there consider you to be a Satanist.

Congrats, I guess.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

It's funny, a few years ago my wife and I were in our local Michaels store. I happened to be wearing one of my more blatant concert shirts(Septic Flesh) that day, and as I was looking around the store, an older woman saw what I was wearing. As she was walking away from me, I heard her say "apparently they let the Devil shop here" to herself out loud.
I thought it was funnier than hell.
I list myself as an Atheist/Satanist because like you said, some people would consider me a Satanist, depending on what their definition of a Satanist is. Simply not believing any of their bullshit is enough sometimes.

I am wife, mother, grandmother (GiGi), and tattooed.  I just don't introduce myself as tattooed.  But, you do you.

Just trying to understand why you lead with it here.  Husband is tattooed...all my kids are tattooed and I am sure once the oldest granddaughter hits 18, she will be too.  So far she has had to settle for piercings.  It's just a thing, doesn't define any of us.

I kinda have to side with this. I am a metalhead, I paint my nails black. I wear band t-shirts (black) and black jeans, spikes, earrings and rings, battle jacket everywhere I go. I even have a tattoo. Yet any post that I have here were It's not relevant, I don't mention it, similar goes for real life. And that's because I know that I love these things and I choose to express myself through how I look. It's not for the people around me, I don't care how they feel by the way I look, it's for me.

Other than that, I don't know.

I get it though. I think why you mentioned it allot here is because you don't really have allot a places outside of our circles to express it through dialogue. I on the other hand have learned to live with that mainly becuase I don't care to felx. I have my circles, it's enough. But it is nice talking to one of us in the wild. I'd be lying if I said I didn't like talking to you. It's the old human error of wanting to be social on a deeper level and we, as humans, try to achieve this through flexing.

There is a Membership Photos thread where you can post a pic of yourself tho.

As in relation of this thread, since it's supposed to be about Satanism, I do love satanic imagry, satanic black metal, gore, horror and given the chance I would actually join the Satanic Temple but I still woudn't identify as Atheist Satanist. Why? Because I would feel silly calling myself a Satanist.

Let's be honest. They're all gray. Laundy Detergent hates black. While I do wash my band clothes by hand, only recently I found out that you're supposed to wash anything black with fabric softner only.

Well, "flexing" is maybe fair to say. But maybe it's also just talking about what he likes. I mean, if we can't show our enthusiasms to other people then it's a pretty cold world.

Long long ago I lived in NYC and worked in the art scene. There were several people who were so committed to jet-black clothes that they would never wash their black jeans at all -- they'd wear them a few times and then give them away. If you happened to be the same size and didn't mind just a bit of wear, you never had to buy your own. 

Unfortunately most people who did this were petite Asian women, so they were not exactly my size.

RE: SATANISM
I think it's pretty rough to allow other people to define you as a thing, even though you're not that thing, to the point that you describe yourself as that thing.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Unfortunately that's the world we live in. It's worse in the Middle East where metal bands literally have to hide their identities.

Sad that you didn't get any that fit. Also gross.

Other than the looks, is there anything to Satanism (as it applies to you) that makes it different from non-Satanist atheists? Are there any values or lifestyle choices that go against the US mainstream? Like, I don't know, Communism or accelerationism or violent crime?
No, not really. I've been an Atheist for as long as I can remember. Politically, I'm a conservative, which apparently is rare for someone with my beliefs, or lack thereof. I've been a metal music fan since the mid 70s, and as I've gotten older, my tastes in music haven't "mellowed" like most older peoples have. Mine have been going in the opposite direction for the past 20 or so years now. I've grown to love the darker, heavier, more evil forms of metal music. I listen to it several hours a day, it helps keep me sane in this fucked up world we're living in.
I've never been arrested or committed any crimes, I was too busy trying to support our family for over 35 years, until I was forced to retire in 2015. I've never consumed alcohol, smoked, or used drugs either.
I'm a "normal" retired 64 year old who loves American muscle cars and trucks, collects Hot Wheels cars with our 6 year old grandson, and is a lifelong metal head. The fact that I look like a serial killer that no one fucks with is a plus. As long as our grandkids aren't afraid of me(they're not) I'm happy being different.

Yeah man Whitechapel is extremely evil and scary. Better not fuck with those guys.
