    Theistic satanism that is. The inherently evil people. not the fancy wannabe's.

    In the past, satan and satanists were greatly feared and hated. Many religious texts portray satan or his likenesses as the ultimate evil.
    There was public hysteria, whenever satanism or satan worship was mentioned or heard about.

    But these days, violence and inhuman-ness is all around us. Violent, vulgar and evil videos and material abound throughout the internet. people have become desensitized.

    It seems that nobody is scared of satan or satanism anymore. They seem to be forgotten and are probably not even worth mentioning as a threat to society.

    So what do you think.
    Are you scared of satanism ? do you think it's a threat ?
    Are you worried about it ?

    I am not worried because I understand what and who he is and what his objective is. I fear for the billions of people who he is misleading right around the globe. How is he doing this? Try reading this one verse: 2 Cor 11:14.

    Take a history check of the last 100 years. Society everywhere is accepting things that were never accepted before. Talk about being lulled.

    That's right. People might not be able to distinguish between good and evil. Because they will be utterly desensitized by all the violence and hate and intolerance around them.

    Everyone is intolerant.

    Non- religous people are intolerant of religion.

    What's the difference?

    I'm not religous, but I tolerate your religion as long as your religion does not infringe upon my right to freedom. You can believe in Jesus, Mohamed, or the Flying Spaghetti Monster and it is all the same to me.

    Yes and vice versa. Applies to many people.

    One must not hate another's religion or the lack of it in his love for his own religion.

    I can't understand why anyone would worship satan. If he is real, that indicates the bible is real. If the bible is real, it says that he will be destroyed in the end. As a long term investment, satan would be very high risk with low returns. I don't know if I believe in the devil, but I think it is very possible that dark forces exist. I do see what you are talking about in that people are getting desensitized by the evil in the world.

    Damn wikipedia, got me confused. This is what happens when you use wikipedia to scientificise yourself. I meant devil worshippers.

    People who are worried about things like "Satanism" are the real threat in my view. Anyone who thinks that irrationally is dangerous because they cannot be reasoned with or make intelligent informed decisions.

    Objectively you would have to wonder if satan was not the good guy and god is the evil dictator of the universe. God tortures people for eternity in hell for saying bad things about him. What exactly did satan do to get kicked out of heaven anyway? Have an orgy, or what?

    Satan is without heart, without warmth, without love. His object is to make us as cruel and heartless as he is. True love is giving from within your heart unselfishly. Did you people ever read why satan was kicked out of heaven?

    hehehehehe good joke dude. A good guy is always in the light. He never has to hide behind deception and hidden motives. Jesus never hide, he never deceived. He was always straight out and loved everyone that crossed his path unselfishly.
