General reminder to the pagans out there:
Making a supreme goddess figure part of your spirituality? Great! Worshiping a mother goddess? Wonderful! If that brings joy and meaning into your life, excellent!
"Once upon a time long ago, people all worshiped a great goddess until THE PATRIARCHY conspired to overthrow her and replace her with a CRUEL PATRIARCHAL GOD" - that's pseudohistory and conspiracism; there's literally no evidence for it whatsoever, and it can and does drag people down the new age to alt right pipeline.
If you get the Lucien Lachance summoning spell as a bonus in the Skyrim dark brotherhood quest line he says something interesting when you’re looking for Cicero in the Dawnstar sanctuary. “I will kill this jester if you so desire, but there is a disturbance in the Void. Our Dread Father does not wish this.” I usually kill Cicero but i decided to let him live on my most recent play through, because of what Lucien said I realized Cicero was kinda right. Astrid did betray us and Cicero knew he didn’t like her, he just didn’t know why.
oh boy ! a post about respecting all religions !! I sure hope they treat Satanism, Luciferianism, and other religions based on the "villians" of other religions, especially the theistic versions of them normally !!
oh
Oh you like that band? Name three songs. Oh you can't?? (Wait you can? I don't care, take it off poser). Yeah take it off. We're gonna have nasty gay sex while we listen to it and then you can put it back on.
Badgers and coyotes hunt together. It's a thing. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service explains that “studies have shown that this unusual relationship is beneficial for both species. The coyote can chase down prey if it runs and the badger can dig after prey if it heads underground into its burrow systems.”
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!
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.
