I've been searching for answers to many deep, spiritual questions to which I have yet to find answers. I've been reading into different philosphies and religions. Recently I read a passage by Locke which stated something like 'to gain a true perspective on one's surroundings, one must take into account perspectives on the environment other to your own'. So, I've opened myself up to different perspectives, such as christianity.
After reading the bible, however, I felt as if I would be cheating myself by not reading into the opposite perspective, that of the satanist, and I was rather surprised by what I found. There was no slaughtering of babies, drinking of blood, or whatever first pops into ones mind from all sorts of propeganda. It was more a mockery of organized religion and the hypocrisy of it all and that one should give into their carnal desires if it will make them a better person.
So, I am interested as to what other's perspectives are on this topic.
