we should all totally become satanists now
I mean, you don’t even need one, but you could be a card-carrying member of the Satanic Temple.. They’ve come out and said that anyone who wants to join can do so, no fees necessary. I would view it as more of a donation to their cause.
I am a card carrying member. I think I have sincerely held religious beliefs that some court cases should be protecting right now. I know small comfort, but it’s better than nothing.
New doom game comes out in 3 days.
HAIL SATAN!
I first read the Satanist Bible a year after leaving Christianity. It’s not only a parody of the Bible, it’s also all about believing in yourself. I found it very inspiring. My Christian family was not amused.
The unnecessary commas.
deleted by creator
It is a writing convention to place a comma before a quotation.
Great. Now I’ve got that stuck in my head.
What do you, mean?
They come and go, they come and gooooo.
All my best teachers and coaches were Satan all along!
I wish kids would figure out that most teachers are trying to help them
“It’s SaTAHN, actually.”
don’t ever believe you accomplished something. it was jesus who did it for you. unless you fail. then it’s 100% your own fault
privatize profits, socialize losses …
Jesus saves, Satan invests.
That’s not Satan, that’s the snake. Satan’s just an asshole who does God’s bidding testing and tempting people like he did with Job. And it’s not the same as the nake or lucifer.
The ‘snake’ was the one who told Eve that God was lying to them, and that they would not die if they ate the forbidden fruit. This one is the cool guy who’s the equivalent of Prometheus.
Lucifer isn’t even in the bible at all. It’s a Roman mythical explanation for Venus because it was something bright that appeared sometimes in the sky, and it somehow got conflated with the bad versions of the “morning star” mentioned in the bible later. Funny enough, Jesus is also referred as “morning star” too. Also the King of Babylon, I think. “Morning star” may be just a saying to describe a characteristic, not a character, like “you are a rising star”.Good point, lucifer is a word used in some translations of the bible though, this book Isaiah was originally written in Hebrew and the word was heilel, and this was translated to latin as lucifer. It was referring to a Babylonian king, not the devil, or the fallen angel, likely Nebuchadnezzar. Some translation use this or similar wording.
Lucifer is latin and means light bringer, lux means light, ferre means bringer.
The serpent was cursed to live as an animal on it’s belly. So not the same person as Nebuchadnezzar.
Different devils (from the ancient Greek word diabolos) also not the same person, or one person
Please tell me more about the word of Satan
More veggies and less fruit; too much sugar. Update: Sorry for the duplicate, lemmy client glitched.

Thank you dark master!
Good guy Satan.
Thanks Satan. I needed that today.
“Heaven forbid” you try to lead your own life.
I dunno, the Christians might be on to something. Definitely some people around who need to believe in themselves a bit less.
Based
I wonder how many people stop to consider the validity of the statement anyway. Like, “Source?”
It is sourced, at the bottom of the image. I don’t know who that person is or what their theological credentials are, but they did source it at least.
Yeah, I’m referring to them, not the image maker.
Clearly I need more satan in my life.
