THAT's what Satan is!!!!!
A type of religion revolved around Satan. Opposite to christianity as it is more revolved around Self-Indulgence, nothing to do with goats or pedophile in fact 1 of the satanic laws is not to touch young children and stay out of others way unless they get in your way, if they do, DESTROY THEM!!!

A man of wealth and taste. (After the Rolling Stones.) His role is much maligned. He actually keeps his minions from sticking in the pitchforks that much harder.

Satanism refers to a wide range of mostly left-handed faiths, including (but not limited to):
a) Reverse Christianity
b) Setianism
c) Sat/tanism
d) Luciferianism (or original satanism)
e) LaVeyan satanism
f) Symbolic (or modern) satanism.
As a short description of each:
The most readily-recognised of these is reverse christianity. This refers to those who espouse vice rather than virtue and act in all ways to perform 'evil'. However, it is also the minority.
After that, LaVeyan satanism is the next most easily recognised. LaVeyan satanism is an ethical egoist organisation (that is, it supports the idea that the individual should serve themselves). It also contains a sense of pantheism, in that it holds that all people are connected to power and can use it to perform magic. It is based on the satanic laws of the earth, and was founded by LaVey.
Luciferianism is the veneration of Lucifer as a positive role. It derives from Gnosticism (a christian sect which believed that God was pure wisdom, and we should seek this wisdom), some members of which decided that God could not possibly be wise and that it was Lucifer who should be venerated, as a positive, wisdom-bringing deity.
Sat/Tanism is more obscure. The name is a pun on "being and becoming", and is a combination of self-venerating practices and earth magic ultimately aimed at apotheosis (becoming a god).
Setianism is a mystery cult (a religion in which one is initiated into higher and higher levels, a little like freemasonry), based around the veneration of Set, from the Egyptian pantheon.
Finally, Symbolic satanism is a catch-all term for anti-theistic or self-venerating practices, often involving magic.

A group of people whom are the 'opposite' to Christians. They do not, in fact, worship 'Lucifer', 'Satan', of 'the Devil'. The words 'Satan' is meant as another word for 'me' or 'myself'...As is 'Hail Satan'='Hail me'. They belive that in fact, that the human being is a power all in itself and yet is nothing more than another form of animal.
True Satanic people do not participate in animal/human sacrifices, mass sexual orgies, or child raping/molesting. (Unlike those Catholic priests out there...)
If you bastards would actually take the time to look up the Church of Satan's website, you would know this. Also, you would know this if you read the Satanic Bible by Anton Szandor Lavey.

Those whom are Satanic lead a path of harmony, while those whom are Christian want nothing but to control others through their false god.
