I wasn't aware that we could have threads representing religions that we draw inspiration from.
The Satanic Bible by Anton LaVey is a spiritual book that I have often looked to in times of spiritual need.
I just love Satan so much that I thought I'd honor him in this thread (yes, I'm serious and will provide scripture and personal testimonies).
To start I'd like to quote from the The Nine Satanic Statements, specifically #7 .
7. "Satan represents man as just another animal, sometimes better, more often
worse than those that walk on allâ€fours, who, because of his “divine spiritual
and intellectual development,†has become the most vicious animal of all!"
Man as just another animal is a central belief in my philosophical outlook. Once mankind began to see itself as ABOVE other animals and ABOVE Nature itself, is when, I believe, we started becoming more and more out of harmony with the Earth.
Man is not special, IMO, and like #7 suggests, we are, almost irrefutably, the most destructive. Once we look at humans as animals, I think we begin to make much more sense. Our base desires, urges, proclivities, etc. *
And, as the seventh Satanic Statement suggests, we are also capable of some of the greatest good. More on that later.
ok, that's enogh for now. More inspiration from Satan to come!
