Though not about Satanism itself, I actually set out what I think about this silly excuse of "the Devil made me do it" on what passes for my little blog back in January. I feel silly about blowing my own trumpet even if I have a trumpet (BlackAdder reference FTW) but it's under the website button if anyone wants to see a trainwreck. Anyway, I mentioned a couple of news items, in both of which an horrific act is blamed on the Devil: the first case is about 65 year old Miriam Fowler Smith from South Carolina, who strangled a pet dog with electrical cable and then tried to burn the remains - she claimed it was a "devil dog" because it had chewed her Bible and she "feared for the safety of neighborhood children."
The second case is even more grisly, so much so that I'm going hide it from anyone without a strong stomach or no human feelings. (No, I really mean that: please do not read this if you're easily upset.)

At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
