        I don’t believe that Satan is real. Most Satanists don’t. It’s about the myth of Satan.

        Look at it this way. You’ve seen a movie or read a book and been inspired by the story, even though you knew it was fictional, right? Satanism is the same way.

        It’s not called “humanism”, after all…

        That only seems witty because you clearly have little understanding of what satanism and humanism actually are beyond spelling.

          I can cite all LaVey’s “keys” from memory, and have a degree in philosophy, if that helps. 🤠

            It does not. Anton LaVey is part of the Church of Satan and has little to do with the philosophy of The Satanic Temple that we are discussing here.

        I think y’all are getting a few things mixed up. There are parts of Satanism that are not spiritual or supernatural whatsoever.
