I am not an atheist, I genuinely believe that God exists and he is evil, like a toddler who fries little ants with a lens.

    well no see you misunderstand, this is satanism from the view of classical christianity (i’m definitely using this term wrong, i just think it’s funny lol, don’t read into it). I.E. satan is “an evil god” which even through classical christianity, is not accurate. But i would really recommend you see what certain christians think of satanism lol.

    They lack the mental capacity to properly formulate any other religion, so they just replace jesus/god with satan/devil and call it a day at it’s simplest.

      I don’t think Christianity ever saw Satan as a god, though. Angels are creatures like humans except created to serve.

        no, they don’t, but like i said, this is what they think satanism is to them.

        It’s not about the fundamentals of religion, it’s about how they perceive what they believe to be the “anti religion” think about it. If you’re a christian, and you’ve told your entire life that god is good, and satan is evil, and that christianity is about christ and about what he does. When presented with the concept of satanism, doesn’t it seem apt that it would essentially be christianity, but loosely applied to what christianities concept of satan is?

        It’s less about how religion works, and more about a perverted concept of religion.
