Hello dear. Yes there are Satanists out there- there are even a few here on Y!A.
I am one.
Do we believe in God? Most Satanists do not believe in God or even in Satan. The most essential elements of our philosophy do not require spiritual belief in anything but ourselves.
Are we scared of (punishment for) what we're doing? No no. Quite the opposite. Satanism is a hedonistic religion. Verily I say to you we are rewarded in full each day.
Do we have powers? Because we are not fettered to the service of a God that demands sacrifice of carnal pleasures, because we are not destined to "turn the other cheek", because we make decisions by ourselves and for ourselves- the answer is yes.
We are powerful. Knowledge, freedom, action- these are the keys to our power, and we can wield it to great effect.
Of course, you probably meant to ask about the practice of magick. Yes indeed, some of us do practice magick, with various levels of success I'm sure.
No, dear, we are not scared of what we're doing. We leave the task of fearing God to Christians.

Here here.
You clearly don't understand what a Satanist is. I'm an atheist and Satan is a symbol of intellectual freedom. God and the Devil are imaginary.

i wanted to let you know that satanism isn't the literal worship of the satan that you know. the satan from the bible is not involved.
satanists worship whatever is most important to them in life.

You don't know much about Satanism, do you?
