While I do appreciate a good conversation... I appreciate not having stress and anxiety, more.
The comments have been disabled due to a few people being negative cretins.
Sorry.
If you have a question to ask of me about Satanism; either send a Note, or please comment on my FAQ: fav.me/d92eszo
If you appreciate this Deviation, simply favourite it! I appreciate every little star that pops up.
Thank you~ :blackrose:


-------------------------------------------

I have made this one because all the ones I saw had the star in a circle and upside-down, and that made me sad.

Q: "But why are you using that star? Isn't it Satanic?"
A: In truth, Satanism = Paganism.

A bit of an explanation, taken from the JoS page on "Daemons":
So much has been distorted, warped and perverted by enemy religions. Here is the original meaning of Daemon/Demon-

Daemon: "In Greek myth, an intermediate spirit between men and Gods. Daemons such as the one who guided Socrates act as councilors and guardians to human beings."

Another definition from Encyclopædia Britannica, 1973 edition:
"A general Greek term for a supernatural power. As early as the Hesiod, the dead of the Golden Age became daemons, and later philosophical speculation envisaged these as lower than the Gods, but as superior to humanity. The Christians therefore attributed the actions of the Pagan Gods to daemons, identified as fallen angels."

With the coming of Christianity, the Original Pagan Gods were blasphemed as monsters. The above quote from the Encyclopædia Britannica claims that Daemons are lower than Gods. This is partially true in that some are human hybrids [Demi-Gods] who have become both spiritually and physically immortal and have what is called "supernatural powers." The Demons of the Goetia are all Original Pagan Gods. Some such as Asmodeus are Demi-Gods.

This excerpt quote from the Catholic Encyclopedia is very revealing:
"In the same way the Greeks and Romans may have worshiped their divinities, fondly believing them to be good. But the Christian Scriptures declare that all the gods of the Gentiles are demons."
tl;dr Paganism and Satanism.... the Pagan Gods and Demons, are just the same with different names.

It can be pretty much assumed that anybody who uses the point-up star and the circle is Wiccan, not Pagan.

Q: "But aren't those the same thing?"
A: Nope. Wicca is a new-age religion (dating about 200 years maximum), while Paganism is ancient. (millions of years if you just count the nature worship part... 50,000 or so if you count the time the Pagan gods first arrived on Earth.)
