As a human mother i'm not programmed to deal with weakness in this fashion. I'm programmed to encourage stronger areas to flourish, to compensate for weakness in another area, to fix booboos, to inspire. To accept the things I can't change, to change the things i can, and the wisdom to know the difference. I like my solution better.

There are many weak animals. The difference is they carry little traits that help them along the way. Turtles are weak creatures yet they have lived longer then us. How has that affected them?

If you believe what the op says then what this means is that all the wars fought were sponsored by the elite.

1. How many wars have been fought in the name of satan?
All of 'em.
Certainly not in the name of Jesus since his solution to violence was to turn the other cheek. Now who's paradigm does getting revenge and survival of the fittest fit more precisely into ? Certainly not the turn the other cheek guy.

I know, I know no one line answers, but I got to.
If the "Church" is wrong and the opposite " Satanism " ( I'd rather call it naturalism " ) is right. Then why not try to beat the truth down, it's what they do best! Right????

I must have phrased my comment wrongly, you misunderstood it. I´m sending you a U2U to clarify because the comment is intended towards you and your opening post specifically.

Then look no further to your own fellow people. I have never met you nor have I judged you but people ruin it for Satanism. People ruin it for Christianity and there is more hate spewing towards Christianity then Satanism. When Satanists such as XLucifer start saying 2/3 must die how does that reflect towards Satanism?

i mean what observations are you speaking of? satanic rituals? do you see them? often?
besides that...my thread is not about the nature of satanism. it is about people like you that say negative things about it based on absoloutely NOTHING!!!!!!!!
Well before we could charge the catholic church with being a pedophile cult, we'd have to backtrack to the grecian and roman empires, in which pederasty was a normal and in many cases, preferred form of sexual erm....expression.
en.wikipedia.org... in truth, it was a pagan social construct before it was a catholic one. seems to me that some of the pederastic priests are just generational from prior ones back to the days of pagan rome. a tradition that just never stopped all these millenia.
not that i'm condoning it, i'm just pointing out that their behavior on such topics originated in rome, and before that greece and at the time, was considered normal and many cases, preferable, which just goes to show ya, social mores are rubbery blobs of playdoh

oh i know but i'm not a lion
some kids have zits, some don't
i'm handicapped, but i can paint, draw, play 2 musical instruments,
write books, stories, poetry, and dance. i have a plethora of ancient culture data in my head.
i was on the dean's list and president's list in college, where i was a pre-med student (planned on being a doctor of natural medicine) and know a good bit about herbs and natural remedies.
however, if you asked me to run a block down to the corner and hit the guy who just stole your tires over the head with a tire iron, i wouldn't make it past the second house on the way (not to mention, i wouldn't hit the guy over the head. .. i'd probably walk and try to find a way to get your tires back without violence). my survival skills are different than yours, apparently. doesn't mean they don't work, just means they're different.

This illustrates the reason Humans have not progressed, and continues to repeat the same fundamental mistakes. It has always been some one elses fault! Humans are innocent and bare no responsiblility for the condition they find them selves in. I embrase what is coming, it truly is long over due!

don't worry. jesus will fill you in on which ones were not actually about him at all (pretty much all of them lol). you can say you're going to battle in the name of swiss cheese but doesn't mean it really has anything to do with swiss cheese.

I think too many people tend to take religion for face value. Satanism is not a religion. It's a rebellion against something in which neither the majority of Religious people, nor the people who rebel against it, understand much about.
Christianity has some beautiful and enlightening concepts behind all of the dogmas the Church pushes. So do all religions. Try understanding, instead of rebelling and feeling bitterness and hatred and arrogance.
I can already tell that you're bitter, 666. If you weren't bitter, you wouldn't be going on about Satanism in the first place. It is absolutely ridiculous, man. Just drop it. If you wanna practice something other than religion, why not meditate and find your own wisdom and spiritual path? Why worship rebellion against creation, when your very essence is a part of that which you wish to rebel against?

You are taking my posts out of context. If you are going to quote me then quote the whole post please. I never judged you, if you are a Satanist then that is fine by me. I never went to any post and derailed it by making fun of you. I simply came here to defend my beliefs against XLucifer. I never meant for this to turn out this way but I never attacked you.
Science can take us far. So why can't the weak and the strong get a long? You must shed the old way of life and accept we are all equal. Why should we kill off 2/3 of the planet so the 1/3 of the rich can survive. We can easily all work together to achieve greatness and prosperity. The elite make it difficult.
Think about this for a second. If everyone learned to work together against each other how fast would we move forward.
As I stated before I have not judged you. You could be a great guy I do not know. However if you believe what XLucifer believes then it would mean you are on a evil path. 2/3 will not be destroyed easily, it will be through wars, gangs, drugs, famine and diseases. Unlike some people, I can not stand to see people suffer.
To answer your original topic, I do not know what you mean about spreading disinformation. I have not seen as many Satanism disinfo posts as I see against Christianity.

Simple allot of people are Christian, and the media displays Satanism as "evil". Since there are some bad incidents the media will jump right on it, and Christian-based propaganda soars. Although I have nothing against Christianity, of course.
