araxia Posted November 23, 2012 #1 Share Posted November 23, 2012 (edited) So if Satanism means worshiping yourself as your own god then you are denying any GOD outside of yourself, and that is basically the core principle of ATHEISM as well, to worship yourself as the only GOD or the only intelligible creature out there... so atheism is the denial of any GOD except yourself, there is no loving GOD out there and you can only save yourself, thus it sounds much like SATANISM... dah... I MEAN Satanism is all about the DENIAL OF GOD, it has nothing to do with worshiping another GOD AT ALL, not even SATAN, since SATANISM also teaches you worship yourself as your own god, like SATAN wanted to be his own god, and did not want to bow to another god outside of himself: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rnwAs7yFTHE&feature=plcp http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KIDBEWd8y8E&feature=plcp Edited November 23, 2012 by araxia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knight Of Shadows Posted November 23, 2012 #3 Share Posted November 23, 2012 there is big mix up here .. atheism is NOT rejecting god .. it's the logic of there is no god at all .. never was therefore it's not rejection while satanism acknowledge the existance of biblical figures " satan , god " and rejecting one while the name of the belief is based the figure " satan " i do not believe they are the same thing .. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+and-then Posted November 23, 2012 #4 Share Posted November 23, 2012 Poor kid is a South African with a speech impediment. But she makes some good points. Atheists do not accept God and therefore rely only on themselves. We all have a choice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can mix your words up anyway you want, but it is what it is. there is big mix up here .. atheism is NOT rejecting god .. it's the logic of there is no god at all .. never was therefore it's not rejection while satanism acknowledge the existance of biblical figures " satan , god " and rejecting one while the name of the belief is based the figure " satan " i do not believe they are the same thing .. Believe me as en ex-satanist The logic to SATANISTS is that there is NO GOD but yourself. And atheists also believe no one can dictate for them what to do with their lives. Thus as SATANISM is the SPIRIT OF REBELLION and doing what you want without a GOD telling you what to do etc, It is the same thing. SATANISM IS REJECTING GOD, ATHEISM IS REJECTING GOD, BOTH ARE ABOUT SELF-GOVERNMENT. Edited November 23, 2012 by araxia 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well we could possibly argue that DEMONS fear GOD, that creatures of DARKNESS FEAR THE LIGHT OF GOD, yes that might be TRUE, but SATANISTS are not the DEMONS that fear GOD, the demons tell them NOT TO FEAR IT, to see how far they can push them.

SATAN can never win, no matter how hard he tries to deny the existence of GOD, since GOD created him how else could he have come into existence? I wish his followers would have believed the same.... But this reasoning is tempered with by demons that tell them there is nothing to fear, nothing greater than you etc. Yes I understand what you mean between the two, but I do not think SATANISTS believe GOD exists, they do not even believe in hell, or else they would not have done the things they do, catch my drift? The pagans believe there is NO HELL AT ALL, despite what the bible says, so how can they believe in GOD if they reject one thing in the BIBLE, then they must reject all in the BIBLE? We can reason about all of this non-stop, yes ATHEISTS reject a GOD IN ALL TOTALITY, and Satanists well that is up for arguing then, I MEAN would they want to burn in hell? No because to them there is NO SUCH THING, so the can do as they want... So if they can do what they want, there is NO GOD OR SENSE OF JUSTICE, that can possibly rule over their souls.

lightly Posted November 23, 2012 #11 Share Posted November 23, 2012 i guess i don't understand . If 'satanism' is worshiping oneself ... then why call in "SATANism" ? why not call it SELFism? If a person believes there is no God , logic would demand that they also believe there is no Satan? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically if you do not believe in a GOD, you can do as you want right? It does not matter if you do not hold yourself as higher than others, but you are holding yourself HIGHER THAN GOD, OR universal LAW... you decide how you live life, basic existentialism... so if you can do that are you not playing god over your own life? it is the same thing.

Let's see: There are laws of society and laws of ethics which are made from the accumulation of people living together. I can do as I'd like, sure, but within the constraints of the society that I find myself living in. In Atheisim, there is no god, how can I 'hold myself' higher then a being I don't believe in? It would be like me saying I'm 'higher' then Barney the dinosaur. Is it true? Maybe. Is it false? Maybe. Is he real? No. Universal Law? Like the laws of thermodynamics? Sorry, I think entropy's got me beaten. It's not the same thing because I'm not worshiping myself, I don't hold myself higher then a being many people believe, I just don't believe in this being.
