Well not exactly from end to end but i pretty much got the whole gist of it... i've even read a verse from the book for a voice over on party boy's metal album. a verse believed to summon the handsome jackass satan himself.. the satanic bible (or so from what i've read) doesnt really encourage its followers to walk on out for a killing spree. it really isnt as frightening as one would instantly think. not that i'm impressed enough nor do i have any plans to convert. but in some ways.. the satanic bible actually makes a fair amount of sense. but again not enough to forget the Dude i love. as the book claims that satanists actually DO know how to say sorry.they do know what that bunny meant when reprimanded by the momma bunny in the disney bambi. once a follower commits a deed he is sorry for, he apologizes and vows not to do it ever again. indulgence, is the satanist's philosophy. its like saying "you-go-girl" to anything and everything in life and doing it like a feast. yet true to the word indulgence, it kinda gets a little too over the top for me at least. their teachings are pretty logical and can get way too logical that they question the existence of God and the capabilities of. it tries to embed ambition to be greater than what you are that you could almost be immortal. it encourages strength, as party boy had put it. clearly written for the aetheist (at hindi yung nagiinarteng aethist ha!) the satanic bible bluntly puts out its skeptic to judeo-christian religion and practices as unrealistic and baloney.
I dont really go to mass as much although party boy has brought back a piece of that back into my life. when there's time we try to make it for the next hour before he speeds of to his weekly sunday family dinners. making the sign of the cross each time we randomly pass by a church on the road, prayers before every meal.. a form of habit these have may become but i suppose it has made a little good change in my spiritual life.
wouldnt hurt.
Yet like some if not most, i can have a wavering sense of faith too. coming home alone from that impromptu voice over kinda did give me the heebee geebees. a tiny electricity lag in the bedroom got me belting out some gloria estefan just to shake the giddy fuck off of me.
then again its a glitch created by science.
And science is created by God.
Or then again its just some voodoo cocksucking bullshit of a hex over me.
So here's to you anton lavey and to all what we believe in. to each his own.
