Literally, they want compliant, obedient, non-thinking sycophants. It's what the entire religion is based in, right down to Adam and Eve. It's a cult.
Not to be the douche that links a tedtalk, but extremely relevant: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qS7mBbXxJYA
"We don't want women like you"
All religions.
The crazy thing is that the three main religions all derive from the same dumb story of Abraham convincing himself that God wanted him to murder his own son to prove his belief in God.
Luckily some slightly sane part of his mind kept him from doing it, but his delusion convinced him it was God that stayed his hand.
I recently read that up until fairly recently in human history, people didn't understand thinking. They didn't realize it was their own mind coming up with ideas, they literally thought God placed it there. Come up with a good solution to a problem? You didn't think of it, refine it, figure out how to apply it, etc. GOD gave you the idea. They really didn't think they were capable of their own independent thought.
So all three religions worship the exact same God, and believe in the same origin stories, but we still have to genocide all the others because their version of the guy with uncontrolled schizophrenia who tried to murder his son in the name of God, has different nuances than my version.
Whoa whoa whoa... Are we talking the guy with uncontrolled schizophrenia who tried to murder his son in the name of God council of 1879 here, or the guy with uncontrolled schizophrenia who tried to murder his son in the name of God council of 1912?
I considered linking Emo Philips' brilliant joke, now you've forced my hand:
One person seems to go "um, ackchually, real christians like Barack Obama are not like that".
Given the fact that Americans were so obsessed with religion it's probably necessary for any politician to pretend to be religious it doesn't mean they actually are.
They're not wrong. The new testament is pretty unambiguous on what Jesus was about, and their religion is named after the guy.
Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?” And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets.”
The peacenik that willingly sacrificed himself to save people. Someone that repeatedly preached tolerance, kindness to strangers, and that greed is evil. So I have absolutely no problem calling people that don't subscribe to their guy's teachings fake or hypocrites -- especially when there's examples of people that do follow that creed. E.g. Bob Ross, Fred Rogers, Dolly Parton, etc.
I feel satanic. If anything, that's the one thing I would tell others. "Believe in yourself". So WT Fucking F to this poster.

I'll let him drop the mic.
Really great.
Hail Satan
Peace be upon his infernal majesty.
There it is. Like sitting through hate sermons every Sunday isn’t torture enough.
Storytime: The last sermon I sat through was literally a hate sermon.
One of my buddies in grad school talked me into coming to his church for a session one Sunday, and me being mostly agnostic/pagan at the time figured "Ahh, why not? I'm all for you sharing your culture and beliefs with me, I'll hear it out."
Shit. You. Not. 20 minutes into the thing... The preacher was talking down the "evils of pride month" and how if you ever feel "ostracized" on your campus for "standing against" the satanic "influences" of the LGBTQ, you always had a "strong community" to turn to here.
If you're cringing reading this... now just imagine this obviously queer 20s something sitting in the middle of the crowd with this giant rainbow scarf on (it was February) while these aryan karens and nutjobs to my left and right are casually nodding along.
Made a fucking beeline for the door and never spoke to that crazy fucker (or went back to church) ever again lol
Makes me think that the church encouraged people to invite their "heathen gay friends" that week so you would hear the gospel and repent or some nonsense.
Nah, the pastor wanted "the gays" at church so he knew which ones he could play tummy sticks with in a motel after service.
And that's why I left the church. Priest kept drumming up hatred for little zero reason
Been getting more involved with a small non-denominational church over the last few months though. The pastor really steps back when to earth when he gets off the little stage, just back to being a normal guy
I love community and hate hate... There's no room for hate within me, I won't let that poison taint me
I’m so, so sorry that happened to you. And I am so glad you didn’t give into the guilt and shame they tried to put on you. Probably saved you a few years of deep fucked up guilt, if not your life. (I’ve lived it, post religious trauma is real and heavy).
That’s their entire model: making emotional hostages through guilt.
I’ve left that behind a good 10 years now and I’m feeling so much happier but boy it’s been a ride. I’m still rediscovering life and myself to this day.
Thanks for sharing. Thanks for standing up and walking out of there, hopefully you ignited something in some of them. As hateful as they are, a lot of them are victims, being held there by fear against their will.
As a Christian, Ive always found it interesting how much Anton La Vey's Satanism reflect the values of the early church as a commentary on the corruption associated more commonly with Catholicism as a denomination, which I've always found incredibly based, even if the chosen mythography of satirization makes me a little irked. Still, I wouldn't take it seriously if I didn't believe either side was "real" either
ok but why does the guy in the pic look like a cave man?
And if the devil set me free
Long live the devil
And if the good becomes the bad
Long live the evil
Is this the temptation I was warned so often about by christians?
Ave Satanas! Shemhamforash!
And Kamina shouts, “believe in the me that believes in you”
