What I mean when I say that I am a Satanist is markedly different, I think, from most other uses of that word. And yet I find no other word quite so apt when it comes to capturing the scope and essence of my ideas and beliefs.

Six Days of Creation and the Sabbath
Earlier this year I purchased a copy of the Christian Bible as part of a broader study of religions and their sacred texts. Unlike other Satanists, I do not consider the Bible as something wholly abhorrent, false, or misleading. To the contrary, I find it to be an interesting and compelling work of great literary merit, a useful window into history and into the beliefs of a substantial subsection of humanity, and even a source of personal insight and inspiration.
