Satanism is this meme but as a religion.

Like in the way Satanism parodies christianity and does it better in every way?

[–] nxfsi@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Pretty much. Their whole identity is basically "not Christianity". They don't even worship Satan!

My Satanism aligns with The Satanic Temple which has positive values that are summed up in the 7 Tenets. It's true that it's "not Christianity", but that is true for every religion (except for Christianity).

They don’t even worship Satan!

Why would we? Satan doesn't exist, but even if he did, worshiping him would just be reactionary anti-Christianity, replacing one god with another.

The difference is Satan is god and I am Satan. You can also be Satan it is not a parody... or it can be if you want it to be. 666
