they are contradicting themself, if he is what he says,, they believe very well in God,, but believe they will conquer in the battle at the last day,,,,,,,actually foolish if i might say,,,, they actually believe most of the bible as true,,, but they think each soul is a little small peice of God, and if the devil can get enough souls he will conquer in the end,,,, remember this,,,,friend the devil has only what power god allows him to have, ,,,,ive read the end of the book
God wins,,,,,,its really not even a battle,,, more a trial and judgment call,,, there not gonna be like you might think,,, actually the only one that will do anything is Jesus,,,, He will speek the word .... for example,,,,, he may say thou shat not kill or thou shou not steel and all that falls in the category is destroyed,,, by the sword of his word,,,, all of his army will be with him as to witness of all he is to do,,,, ill be there also,,,, watching ,,,i belong to jesus christ,,,,where will you be ,,,,,,?

Satanism is a term that may refer to a religious, semi-religious, and/or philosophical movement. The term is normally applied by non-Satanists to those individuals who worship the entity called "Satan," and advocate the triumph of evil forces over good in the universe; however, members of the Church of Satan, the most organized Satanic group, reject this common association, as they do not actually believe in a being called "Satan," and use his name only as a symbolic allusion to certain materialistic and individualistic values. Adherents of the various forms of Satanism recognize Satan as either an archetype, a pre-cosmic force, an actual living entity, and/or some aspect of human nature. Although named for Satan, a name associated with evil and temptation, Satanism is also the name given to certain spiritual paths which emphasize the Left-Hand Path, as opposed to the much more common Right-Hand Path. Adherents to the Left-Hand path (a.k.a. Left-Handers) believe in spiritual enrichment through their own work on themselves, and that ultimately they are answerable only to themselves, while Right-Handers believe in spiritual enrichment through the dissolution or submission of the self to (or into) something greater. LaVeyans do not in fact worship a deity called Satan, or necessarily any other deity, nor do they follow a principle of evil. This aspect of their beliefs is very commonly misunderstood due to the presence of theistic Satanists, who revere Satan as a literal being.

Instead of divine laws or naturistic principles (such as in Wicca), Satanism generally focuses upon material or physical advancement of the self with guidance from external higher beings or external principles, instead of submission to a deity or a set of moral codes. For this reason, many contemporary Satanists eschew traditional religious beliefs, attitudes and worship in favor of more egoistic, self-centering worldviews, natural law, survival of the fittest and practices such as materialism, individualism and magic. However, some Satanists do choose voluntary moral codes.

Although a faith in its own right, groups or individuals described in some sense or another as Satanic can largely (though very broadly) be described as belonging to one of two strains of thought: Philosophical Satanism or Religious Satanism.
