OK talk to me. I'm not Satanic. I'm a Christian! I've done a little research on this book, but from my understanding, this is just Anton's belief in how a person can live a good life without God and not some kind of Satanic scriptures that have been collected over the years. Help me to better understand this book. tnx!
You are correct. There is no summoning demons and ritual sacrifice. LaVeyan Satanism actually does not have very much to do with Satan at all! It's more like creating yourself as your own god. It encourages intelligence, indulgence and many other things that many people already partake in unconsciously. It is merely LaVey's life philosophy and it has been called Satanism just as a way of stating the beliefs as opposite of most things.
This is what I got out of the book and merely my opinion on it though! I read my copy of this book (not this one, I somehow ended up with two, so you guys get the extra!) =]
