Satanism: An interview with Church of Satan High Priest Peter Gilmore

Church of Satan adherents see themselves as truth-seekers, adversaries and skeptics of the religious world around them.

They discussed the beliefs of the Church, current events, LaVey's children and how Satanism applies to life and the world.

If you want to believe in an existing devil then you probably believe in an existing God and you’re really just a Christian heretic, you’re not a Satanist.

If they really believe in these existing deities, then they have to decide what the values of them are.

I just think it’s equally silly whether you believe in an Easter Bunny or Zeus…it’s just…irrational.

The truth is, with modern steel, the folding process is redundant and can actually weaken the final sword.
