Democratic also means majority rule, so majority think its out there and wrong. The governement is there to protect everyone and if certain things in devil worshipping impose on the rights of others, then then a ban should happen. This is why we ban meth, because the other people around that druggie gets affected and bad for society. And well...devil worhsip to me means violence and no government or society likes violence

Though I hate to agree with it, yes, in a free and democratic society it should be allowed (is it not, I don't know?!)
But any practice that causes harm to members of the public or goes against any other laws shouldn't be allowed.
So, if someone can worship the devil without harming people, animals or property then I guess it should be allowed.
Although, personally I still totally disagree with it.

Should any religion be allowed? - they are all divisive. We should learn to worship each other, not an idea or a god of which there is (and can never be) any proof. Only through mutual understanding and respect can we establish the lasting peace that everyone desires.

If you are reffering to the Church Of Satan, than, yes, it is a religion like all the rest and they have their official site and all. But, if you are refering to 'The Devil worshipers', than it's a totally diferent thing - even the COS won't reckognise them as a real religion. They have too few members and their religious practise is compromised and contraversial. This is why they don't get to be more than a religious sect.

Yes, except that "Devil Worship" is really a joke religion. "Satanism" is a real religion, except it had nothing to do with christianity's "the Devil".
//Edit for RockandRoll58: The difference between a cult and a religion is the amount of real estate they own.

As far as I know it is in the UK. But I think devil worshippers might want to keep it underground because it is obviously such an evil thing that most normal people severely disapprove and would run a mile to avoid it - and quite rightly so.

When people go around killing each other in the name of God, that hardly seems like a Godly thing. So maybe there is more devil worship than we know.
Who do you think Pat Robertson was listening to when he wanted to see President Chavez murdered? He showed who his real god is.

Lots of people you'd never suspect it of do it. Pluton is the god of wealth and of the underworld, i.e. one of the figures the devil got made out of. Buit I think you didn't mean that. Everyone should be allowed to worship anything they like, as long as they keep it to themselves and don't harm people, torture animals or destroy the environment.

You are free to worship the devil if you want. I will pray right now that you will find God and worship Him and not a religion! Best wishes and I am praying that you make a good shoice for your eternity.

People are allowed, even though people seem to forget, there is a seperation of church and state in this country. The only thing you are not aloud to do is participate in illegal activities during your worship.
