maraming group ang Satanism pero ang pinaka popular ay ang binanggit mo ang Laveyan Satanism or Church of Satan sila the other one is the splinter group from Lavey the Temple of Set, ang pagkakaiba ng dalawa ang Laveyan ay Atheistic Satanism ang philosphy nila ay carnal and materialistic while ang TOS ay more on occult their model is Set the equivalent of Satan in ancient pagan religion their philosophy is solid platonic like the platonic philosophy they believe that individual can attain a higher state of consciousness by tapping into the world of abstract ideas and forms, which can be achieved through practices of meditation, ritual, and contemplation. Parehas nilang di sinasamba si Satan o si Set.
The other groups are the Traditional or Theistic Satanism, sila yung mga literal na sumasamba kay Satan, ang kanilang paniniwala ay synthesis ng gnosticism, hermeticism.
Ang masasabi ko lang good guy ang mga Satanists taliwas sa misconception na sila ay may human sacrifice and burnt offering for Satan, at Karamihan sa kanila ay mga edukado at matataas pinag aralan the founder of Temple of Set Michael Aquino is a scholar with doctroral degree, the leader of their branch the Order of Trapezoid Stephen Flowers is a scholar of Germanic History, ang kanilang Satanic groups ay registered sa US as legitimate religious group at exempted sa taxes tulad ng ibang religious groups.
Madami ako noon na encounter online na Satanists nun kasasagsagan na mahilig pa ko sa occultism, medyo nakakakilabot talaga mga rituals nila, altars and magickal weapons, lalo na kung di mo alam kung ano ba yung true meaning ng mga rituals and invocations, pero kung pamilyar ka sa occultism and its symbolism masasabi mo theres is nothing new with satanism they just bunches of peps that go against the grain of standard social norm, they just inverted the doctrines of typical religions kung sa christianity Yaweh and Jesus is the good guys, for satanists Satan is the good guy, the symbol of free spirit, individualty and strong will, for traditional satanists Satan is the true god who saved humanity, at nasusulat nga sa Al-Jilwa the sacred book of the Yezidi at isa sa pinagpipitagan aklat ng mga traditional satanists from the mouth of the prince of darkness: "And in the secret cave of my wisdom it is known that there is no god but myself, Knowing this, who dares worship the false gods of the Koran and bible?"
Now kung meron lang ako dalawang choice kung sino ang sasambahin ko Yahweh the biblical god, or Satan si Satan ang pipiliin ko. Dahil kung babasahin mo ang bibliya (Old Testament) marami ka mababasa na murder, arson, human sacrifice, pillage, burnt offerings at ethnic cleansing kung ano ano pa violence under the commandment of god, the crime of biblical god against humanity ay napakadami, Satan is zero, wala ka mababasa sa bibliya na nag utos si Satan ng murder and human and animal sacrifice, lahat ng yan puro gawain ng diyos ng bibliya. Nakakatawa isipin na malakas mang husga at mang akusa ang mga christians na ang mga satanists daw ay nag aalay ng buhay sa mga satanic rituals nila na wala naman ebidensya pero di nila nakita na yung inaakusa nila sa mga satanists ay gawain ng diyos nila na si Yahweh at kung saan bibliya mismo ang ebidensya at makakapag patunay. Kaya kung bibliya ang pag uusapan at ang sukatan ng pagiging Satan or Devil ay mga nagawang Krimen ay masasabi natin na Yahweh is the true Satan and the true Demon.
