Highlights from the Book of Everyone's Favorite Lucifer

Satanism does advocate sexual freedom, but only in the true sense of the word. Free love, in the Satanic concept, means exactly that – freedom to either be faithful to one person to or indulge your sexual desires with as many others as you feel is necessary to satisfy your particular needs.

Satanism condones any type of sexual activity which properly satisfies your individual desires – be it heterosexual, homosexual, bisexual, or even asexual, if you choose. Satanism also sanctions any fetish or deviation which will enhance your sex life, so long as it involves no one who does not wish to be involved.

You cannot love everyone; it is ridiculous to think you can. If anything is used too freely it loses its true meaning. Therefore, the Satanist believes you should love strongly and completely those who deserve your love, but never turn the other cheek to your enemy.

Repressed hatred can lead to many physical and emotional ailments. By learning to release your hatred towards those who deserve it, you cleanse yourself of these malignant emotions and need not take your pent-up hatred out on your loved ones.

Satan represents vital existence, instead of spiritual pipe dreams.

Life is the greatest indulgence – death, the greatest abstinence. Therefore, make the most of life, here and now!

There is no heaven of glory bright, and no hell where sinners roast. Here and now is our day of torment! Here and now is our day of joy!

Anyone who thinks of Satan as evil should consider all the men, women, children, and animals who have died because it was “God’s will.�? Certainly a person grieving the untimely loss of a loved one would much rather have their loved one with them than in God’s hands! Instead, they are unctuously consoled by their clergyman who says, “It was God’s will, my dear�?; or “He is in God’s hands now, my son.�? Such phrases have been a convenient way for religionists to condone or excuse the mercilessness of God. But if God is in complete control and as benign as he is supposed to be, why does He allow these things to happen?

Pious prophets have taught man to fear Satan. But what of terms like “God fearing�?? If God is so merciful, why do people have to fear him? Are we to believe there is nowhere we can turn to escape fear? If you have to fear God, why not be “Satan fearing�? and at least have the fun that being God fearing denies you? Without such wholesale fear religionists would have had nothing with which to wield power of their followers.

The Satanist, realizing that anything he gets is of his own doing, takes command of the situation instead of praying to God for it to happen. Positive thinking and positive action add up to results.

When a Satanist commits a wrong, he realizes that it is natural to make a mistake – and if he is truly sorry about what he has done, he will learn from it and take care not to do the same thing again. If he is not honestly sorry about what he has done, and knows he will do that same thing over and over, he has no business confessing and asking forgiveness in the first place. But this is exactly what happens. People confess their sins so that they may clear their consciences – and be free to go out and sin again, usually the same sin.

God can do all the things man is forbidden to do – such as kill people, perform miracles to gratify his will, control without apparent responsibility, etc.

Satanism advocates practicing a modified form of the Golden Rule. Our interpretation of this rule is: “Do unto others as they do unto you�?; because if you “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you,�? and they, in turn, treat you badly, it goes against human nature to continue to treat them with consideration. You should do unto others as you would have them do unto you, but if your courtesy is not returned, they should be treated with the wrath they deserve.

The Roman god, Lucifer, was the bearer of light, the spirit of the air, the personification of enlightenment.

Satanism encourages any form of sexual expression you may desire, so long as it hurts no one else.

No matter what you’ve been told about the “immaculate conception�? – even if blind faith allows you to swallow this absurdity – you know full well if you are to produce a child, there must be sexual contact with a person of the opposite sex! If you feel guilty for committing the “original sin,�? you certainly will feel even deeper guilt for performing a sex act only for self-gratification, with no intention of creating children.

The Satanist fully realizes why religionists declare masturbation to be sinful. Like all other natural acts people will do it, no matter how severely reprimanded. Causing guilt is an important facet of their malicious scheme to obligate people to atone for “sins�? by paying the mortgages on temples of abstinence!

Every fund raising organization, be it a charitable foundation, community council, religious or fraternal association, etc., carefully selects a person who is adept at making others feel guilty for its chairman or coordinator. It is the job of this chairman to intimidate us into opening first our hearts, and then our wallets.

Religionists have kept their followers in line by suppressing their egos. By making their followers feel inferior, the awesomeness of their god is insured. Satanism encourages its members to develop a good strong ego because it gives them the self respect necessary for a vital existence in this life.

The highest of all holidays in the Satanic religion is the date of one’s own birth. After all, aren’t you happier about the fact that you were born than you are about the birth of someone you have never even met?
