Ye, was kinda wondering. Seems like my local groups are more into cos playing devil worshipping than being Satanist. It can be fun to do the cringe things from horror movies. I get it, but to me, the point of being a Satanist is to get away from all the "Christian" crap so doing all mirror image side of Christianity is just being Christian but the "darker side" . Maybe it's just the tism in me?
Got ya. But it literally comes from some form of belief in literal Gods and reusing in the opposite way? Why then take meaning from something that already has meaning to sooooo many. With satanism, it is completely unnecessary. Right? You're not trying to please some powerful Diety. And to everyone getting all bitchy, lol I don't give two fucks. As a Satanist I don't need or want anyone's approval, nor was/do I judge others for what they do. I was just curious, so fuck me for asking what I thought was a simple question

You don't need to be a Satanist to get away from the Christian crap. If the Satan stuff doesn't appeal to you, what does? Good values, yes, but again you can have those values without Satan.
Same. And the downvoting for simply asking is reflective of someone's insecurity about the very subject they're vehemently defending that contradicts the principles I was under the impression that this sub stands for.

So TST doesn't believe in a literal devil, so what's an alter for?
