First of all, id prefer someone who doesnt believe in either to explain this, as its obvious that the devil worshippers are just protecting themselves, and us christians are protecting ourselves.

by the way, Satanists DO harm me, Although i am pretty tough and can handle myself in a fight, i have been ganged up on by Satanists, im pretty much a martyr, ill die for my beliefs, i nearly was killed because i believed in God, i didnt turn away when satan continued to pull at me to turn me away, i dealt with the Horrifying Images and voices put in my head, i still deal with them. and me being a christian, DO YOU THINK I WOULD EVER READ YOUR BOOKS OF SIN???

They worship the devil because they bought into his lies. Funny in order to worship the devil you have to believe in Christ. You have to denounce Him completely. So although astheists don't believe in anything Satanist know that Jesus is the one and true Lord. In order to get power from Satan they have to do something that is desacrating to anything Christian. Many Christians mistakenly don't believe in the devil yet the devil believes in Christ. There's a difference between believing and worship. I think of all those people who worship the devil and he doesn't give a rats a s s about them. He just laughs at the prospect of just one more person he has taken away from Christ so they can spend eternity in hell in total anguish with him.

Atheists are, against their own will, the living proof of the inerrancy of the Bible:
"The fool [a] says in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt, their deeds are vile; there is no one who does good." Psalm 14:1
Satanists are just the same: they think satan is the real god (or have some other creepy position about its deity). This psalm, hence, can also be applied to them. They are blind, only because the don't want to see.
May the Lord have mercy on them.

They want to see if your really doing what Jesus told you to do. They want to see if your working on that Log in your eye. Every time you judge them, You become the reason they justify judging you. You are there ammunition. If on the other hand you were to work on your own sin, Not judge others and love your enemy as Jesus tells you to do. If you were to be a light with your actions and not with your words. There would be no Satanists. they are responding to the hypocrisy and the shame they were exposed to by hypocritical abusive Christians. They just want to piss there parents off. Unless God came down and handed you a deputy God badge, then what they do is none of your business. Unless your entirely without sin.

First you have to be stooped enough to believe in religion at all, To worship something that dose not exists is just Retarded. The people who do this are probably out cast and want to be different or feared. Just like the pagans, and the poor people who think Buddhism is a religion. It's not it's a way of life. So to answer your Question Wannabees, posers, and the uneducated.

People who are Satan worship only wants a supernatural power and force that is opposite of God power in our lives.There must be a balance between good and evil. So there are people who worship God and there are people who worship Satan

why do people believe in the god of the bible? You cant believe in one and not the other as Satan is a product of God as far as the doctrine states. They are very simular and rightfully so as lucifer was the first creation. according to gospel..
so zealot, why ask a question you already knopw the answer too ESPECIALLY if you read the bible

How do you know that the Bible isn't one giant deception? That Jehovah isn't evil? You are the one who said he lies and decieves man; as "the Devil" fell to the earth, he gained control. As such, Christianity is the largest religion in the world; thousands were slaughtered in the name of Christ; have you any idea how many souls for Hell that is? Those who say "ignorance is bliss" are wrong, for ignorance is evil!
I'd also recommend you read "The Devil's Apocrypha." It's basically the Bible told from Satan's standpoint.

you know i truly don't think that as many people worship the devil as you may think ... if they do at all
even satanists do not .. they use the name as a symbolic reference to all that is not christian
and even in looking at their principles ... they arent as bad as one may imagine
research it a little for yourself xx
i am not a christian nor a satanist .. i speak only from things i have heard and studied .. so i am neutral lol

I don't think anyone who believes in and worships GOD can answer that question.That is not a question of not agreeing with someones religion, that is, well I don't know what that is but it is scary.
