      I think he agrees: he'd say he was a Satanist too...

        Oh yes, that is what he actually meant, but how often has that been important in the Soapbox? :)

          Anton was someone smart enough to ride a wave of publicity to get booze and sex. There's not really any such thing as a satanist in any meaningful sense IMO. But, it's probably true to say that if you live the way you want to, and don't believe in any God, you're as much of a satanist as it's possible to be.

            Then again, he's on the cover of a Beatles album and you're not. ;P (I'd love to do a film about Crowley in his younger years. )

              Based on my off topic remark earlier, I was wondering... What do people here think of Anton Lavey? Not necessarily him as a person, but his writings and religion. I agree with many things he said. I disagree with many as well. I've read most of his writings. The funniest thing I see resulting from it all is that a church was founded, and people who claim to be Satanists joined it.... I don't know much about the church itself, but I can't see how someone who says they are a Satanist would then go and join a organization for any religion. I don't personally think I belong to any religion, however if there were an instance where I had to claim one, I would say I'm a Satanist. In fact, I used to say that when asked.

                I've only met two other Satanists in person. One I had known for some time, the topic just never came up.

                  No, I'm a Santaist; I'm only Christian when it means I get presents.

                      So you still worship a mythical being? Whats the difference, in that case, between any of the various mythical entities people choose to worship? BTW: even if there were a god why would you need to worship it? Would it expect worship? What could it possibly get from a bunch of tiny people worshiping it?

                      If you believe the being to be mythical (non-existent) then one can suppose that there are other benefits to the 'worship'.

                          Hi Christian, It's been a long time I haven't seen you in the Lounge, and I actually never really understood why you left ( this happened while me being away). Anyway I just wanted to drop you a line ( I could not find your eMail ) to ask "how are you lately ?". I hope you are doing good. RaGE
