Miss Tick sniffed. 'You could say this piece of advice is pricesless', she said. 'Are you listening?' 'Yes' said Tiffany. 'Good now...If you trust in yourself.." 'Yes..?' '..and believe in your dreams...' 'yes?' '...and follow your star..' Miss Tick went on. 'Yes?' 'You'll still get beaten by people who spent their time working hard and learning things and weren't so lazy. Goodbye.' |

Well hes got as much evidence as the next guy...none. |
"...things I have neither seen nor experienced nor heard tell of from anybody else; things, what is more, that do not in fact exist and could not ever exist at all. So my readers must not believe a word I say." -Lucian on his book True History
"...They accept such things on faith alone, without any evidence. So if a fraudulent and cunning person who knows how to take advantage of a situation comes among them, he can make himself rich in a short time." -Lucian critical of early Christians c.166 AD From his book, De Morte Peregrini |

Underlying the evolutionary theory is not just the classic "stuff" of science — conclusions arrived at through prolonged observation and experimentation. Evolution is first an atheistic, materialistic world view. In other words, the primary reason for its acceptance has little to do with the evidence for or against it. Evolution is accepted because men are atheists by faith and thus interpret the evidence to cor-respond to their naturalistic philosophy.

Free will indeed, and I will fight to the death to see that he has it, although it is nonsense to me. That's democracy. I'd do the same for you.
I have no flag to plant, nor want one.

Well, since there is zero evidence to support either a christian god or devil, the point is moot.

What design?
Go back to the thread "Be Afraid..." and re-read the whole thread, and you'll se there is no design. |

I wonder what Verlch thinks of this..
PS. Sorry about the pun, i couldn't resist.
Well, to be technical, a Satanist is not a devil-worshipper, according to the Satanic Bible. In fact, a Satanist considers himself to be the "ultimate" and most choose to worship themselves. Perhaps, in my theory, where the named derived was the definition of an antichrist coincides with a definition of a Satanist, so perhaps Anton Levey made a connection here? In reality, Satanists are "Nothingists" and the "black matter" of space is referred to as "Satan" yet holds no significant meaning other than what is proven by science. Most Satanists are "skeptic" in concept, yet the Satanists I have spoken with have all proven to be more than ignorant of most subjects and for being "skeptical" are still nauseatingly metaphysical. These are, of course, the Satanists I have conversed with, so I do not deem that all Satanists are idiots, but I can't help but get a general impression...

Just a bit of religious education. Or "spiritual" education. Or, "People who claim to be non-religious and non-spiritual but are in fact so" education. I mean, according to those I have actually had lengthy conversations with... |

Just replace "Satanism" with "Christianity", or to be more general, "Religion"
Satan told Eve in the garden that If she at the fruit she would be as God, knowing both good and evil. Basically he is jealous of any worship directed at God and wants worship directed at himself. God says in His word that Satan tried to make his throne above the stars of God. Satan is the creation, not the creator and thus not to be worshiped. One of Gods commandments is that we have no other false gods before him and that we don't worship anything in the sea!
2nd Commandment; Verses 4-6: "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me. And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments."

And since Satanism is none of these things, your point is.........what?
Satanism is the worship of the power within ourselves. It has co-opted several symbols of other religions. They believe in the amassment of personal psychic power.

If you want to believe in those old pagan religions disguised as something new under the sun, revealed as if they are somthing new to be believed in. Than be my guest. The bible tells you how to live as the "Witness" to all nations as to the will of God.
You choose to wander after false teachings and doctrines of devils, paganism, satanism, witchcraft, channeling and new age wonders. Nobody is stopping you. Remember it is not the will of your Maker that you so consort with demons, or have fellowship with them. |

More misstatements and outright unBiblical doctorine from the sewage hole that is verlch. Really, your pained and pathetic attempts to change the subject concerning a book heavily edited through the years and attendant changes in church dogma (think Niocene counsel, O deluded one) is somehow better than a scientific text due to age alone?
And since you have no refuting evidence to support your point, you resort to intimating that we are all damned. Typical.
