Yes, they are and the couple that I do know are very good people. And to drink more powerade, they do not worship a pagan god, you need to do more research, and it is not possession or being possessed. I got this from Wikipedia.....
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.

Sure, they are. God disires to know everyman/woman, reguardless of works or deeds. It says so in Romans. They were just lost to the enemy by a great deal of decieption. But everyone has the oppertunity, especially them to know God. Remember the parable of the man and the sheep?
Jesus loves you, and wants to know you. He is standing at the door, all you have to do is knock.

Well, Satanists don't believe in the Christian Satan. It's a pagan god. Do a little research next time. (Yes, they're people.)
