Answer 1

I answered this on your last question, but Satanists are Atheistic. We don't believe in a devil/god/heaven/hell. We worship ourselves and Nature. Only confused christians worship a devil.

The Eleven Satanic Rules of the Earth

by Anton Szandor LaVey ©1967

[Spanish, Croation]



1. Do not give opinions or advice unless you are asked.

2. Do not tell your troubles to others unless you are sure they want to hear them.

3. When in another’s lair, show him respect or else do not go there.

4. If a guest in your lair annoys you, treat him cruelly and without mercy.

5. Do not make sexual advances unless you are given the mating signal.

6. Do not take that which does not belong to you unless it is a burden to the other person and he cries out to be relieved.

7. Acknowledge the power of magic if you have employed it successfully to obtain your desires. If you deny the power of magic after having called upon it with success, you will lose all you have obtained.

8. Do not complain about anything to which you need not subject yourself.

9. Do not harm little children.

10. Do not kill non-human animals unless you are attacked or for your food.

11. When walking in open territory, bother no one. If someone bothers you, ask him to stop. If he does not stop, destroy him.



Again, if you really wanted to know, you would go here and find out for yourself.

Answer 2

There is a lot of confusion about what this is and I am no expert (as far as what rituals they preform). However, I do know this for certain because it would be the nature of Satan (and those who imitate the fallen angel) to do the following; worship only themselves and be in despair of themselves. So, Devil worship is not a religion (even if they claim it to be), because religions obey natural laws, enforce the good, give life. Because Satanism is only the worship of self and what the self desires, then they would be against natural laws, the good, and life since these things interfere with what they desire (to be worshipped and always have their desires satisfied, no matter the means or cost). Therefore, it cannot be a religion. And since, in its essence, satansism is a worship of self, then it is not really worshipping satan.
May the Lord God bless and keep you. May He let the light of His face shine upon you.

Why are you so worried about this? There is so much more out there religious wise.
Yes, some idiot preacher is going to tell you that any religion that's not christian is satanism, not true. You have to believe in something before you worship it.....

Answer 7

They are the same. Stay as far away from them as you can get. This may help.
Sorcery
(Includes any of the following:) Divination/Magicians/Witchcraft/Wizards/Soothsayers/Necromancers/
Fortunetellers/Astrologers/Familiar Spirits/Charmers/Black Magic/Ouija boards/ Dungeons and Dragons/Harry Potter, wicca, psychics, tarot cards, spells, voodoo, ghosts, horoscopes, ETC.
Any and all of the above are Satanic or demonic or both. We humans are to have nothing to do with them. They cannot help us. They will only bring harm to us, now, in the future or in eternity.
“31Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God.” Leviticus 19:31.
“6And the soul that turneth after such as have familiar spirits, and after wizards, to go a whoring after them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people.” Leviticus 20:6.
“11Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer. 12For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD: and because of these abominations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee.” Deuteronomy 18:11-14.
“19And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead?” Isaiah 8:19. (We are to seek God, not the dead.)
“2Then the king commanded to call the magicians, and the astrologers, and the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans, for to shew the king his dreams. So they came and stood before the king.” Daniel 2:2. (Chaldeans were known for their magic.)
“10The Chaldeans answered before the king, and said, There is not a man upon the earth that can shew the king's matter: therefore there is no king, lord, nor ruler, that asked such things at any magician, or astrologer, or Chaldean.” Daniel2:10.
“6And when they had gone through the isle unto Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name was Barjesus: 7Which was with the deputy of the country, Sergius Paulus, a prudent man; who called for Barnabas and Saul, and desired to hear the word of God. 8But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith. 9Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him. 10And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?” Acts 16:6-10.
“8But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.” Revelation 21:8. (Sorcerers are headed for the Lake of Fire, the second death.)
“14Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. 15For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.” Revelation22:15. (The tree life is eternal life, the city here is Paradise.)
Note: The Chaldeans were famous for their sorcery.
God does not approve of anyone attempting to learn of the future except what He has revealed in The Holy Bible. He does not approve of anyone attempting to contact the dead for any reason. He does not approve of playing games or telling stories about sorcery. God does not approve anyone seeking power from any of these sources. They are all Satanic/Demonic. Anyone who does these things or anyone who consults such is in danger of burning in hell forever.
I pray you will believe this and accept the fact that you are a sinner needing to be saved from your sins (“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;” Romans 3:23, The Holy Bible.) and accept the fact that the blood Jesus Christ shed for you at Calvary is the only way you can have your sins forgiven, cleansed and removed and is the only way you can get to heaven. I pray you will acknowledge that you are a sinner and ask Jesus Christ to forgive, cleanse and remove all you sins and accept Him into your heart/life to live for Him the rest of your life. (“But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:” John 1:12, in the Holy Bible.) That is what it means to be born again. (“Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” John 3:3 in The Holy Bible.) Salvation is a free gift. You cannot work for it. You cannot be good enough to earn it. You must, by faith, receive it as a free gift. (“8For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9Not of works, lest any man should boast.”) Ephesians 2:8-9.
God loves you and it is not His will that you perish in hell.
(“The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.” II Peter 3:9 in The Holy bible.)
This is my prayer for you
