I prefer my Satanism without the Ayn Rand inspired 'Might Is Right'-ism, thanks.

Sorry I am a bit tired. Can you explain your comment in context of the picture?
The book is The Satanic Bible by Anton LaVey, founder of the Church Of Satan, an atheistic Satanist organisation inspired, according to LaVey himself by the author Ayn Rand and the book 'Might Is Right', neither of which are the most progressive of inspirations.
Oh I didn't even see the title of the book. Thanks
Which devil? There are lots of em so I wana know which one first.
Church of Satan, the athiest organization one, not one believing in a real spiritual entity.
The Satanic Bible is a collection of essays, observations, and rituals published by Anton LaVey in 1969. It is the central religious text of LaVeyan Satanism.
Oh no thanks I'm already a member of the satanic temple
So if my understanding is right, they saw the problems with religion, and started their own religion?
It's definitely up for debate on whether principles strictly prohibiting theism constitutes a theism itself, but yes and furthermore they claimed religious iconography specifically to upset religious people and get religious icons banned in public places. The earlier Levayan Satanism especially went above and beyond for their outfits and rituals.
No thanks, there's already enough hell on earth
LOL. I had two J witnesses come to my door earlier today.
I went to the door because the dogs were very excited. As I pulled up the window blind next to the door I saw two young men wearing the uniform holding bibles. As I shooed them away and closed the blind I saw them happily waving back and heard them saying something about Jesus.
