Btw Almost Every Single Thing Pagans Credit With “the Reason We Aren’t Respected As A Religion”

btw almost every single thing pagans credit with “the reason we aren’t respected as a religion” is wrong. it’s not community infighting, or woo magic users, or pop culture pagans. it’s the fact we live in a culturally Christian society that teaches all other religions are “primitive and backwards”, and considers similarity and proximity to Christianity to be the basis by which other religions are evaluated as “respectable” or “superstitious nonsense”. if you think that you would get “respect” from mainstream Christians and secular people because you’re a strict recon who never argues with other pagans or does anything considered “weird” within paganism, you’re fooling yourself.

i wonder why it is that so many people are so very concerned with getting “respect” from mainstream religious groups and the secular world, while you can’t be bothered to treat other polytheists and pagans with respect as soon as they in any way challenge your personal comfort, or jeapordize your perceived “respectability” by association.

Greetings all,

Just a reminder, there is no dress code for theistic Satanism. You are not required to wear all black, you are not required to dress modestly (or immodestly), you are not required to wear a veil or any religious clothing at all.

Please dress however you feel comfortable and do what makes you happy. Personally I prefer to dress a bit more modestly and I wear a headscarf on the daily. Your practice is not affected by your appearance or other people's perception of you. You practice will only be affected by your own devotion and willingness to study and apply your knowledge.

May Lord Satan's light guide you even in the darkest of times.

Ave Satanas!

"oh so you're spiritual but not religious" no actually I am deeply religious in alarmingly carnal and esoteric ways. If you even care.

I love Thomasin’s journey to freedom in The VVitch. From the start she was blamed for things that weren’t her fault and you can see how ingrained the hypocrisy of christianity is into their lives. When her brother noticed things about her it was her fault, when her father sold their silver cup it was her fault, when the twins never did their chores it was her fault. Her father succumbed to pride, her mother to envy, her brother to lust and the twins to sloth. She was the purest member of her family, yet they blamed her for their own sins. Thomasin had likely been dealing with this long before the witches preyed on her family, yet when they did she was blamed for that as well and accused of being a witch. Some people believe Thomasin didn’t have a choice to sign Black Philip’s book because she was manipulated by outside forces for so long. That she traded one master for another, but I don’t see it that way. Her family, who had already succumbed to cardinal sins, were exiled from their village and moved out into the middle of no where. The witches likely would have preyed on her family anyway but they saw Thomasin as an opportunity so they gave her an in. Thomasin signed Black Philip’s book and for the first time she tasted freedom from the hypocrisy of christianity. When a master offers freedom, freedom from subservience, freedom from hypocrisy, freedom from from blame, is he really then a master? No. When a master offers freedom, he is not a master, he is a liberator.
