This was an interesting conversation, but I’m still not sure I understand what it means to be a Satanist. It seems that I align completely with what you describe as non-theistic Satanists, but I just consider myself a left-wing atheist. What’s the difference between that and a Satanist?
Atheism describes what we don’t believe in, Satanism describes what we do believe in. We believe that superstitious beliefs are holding us back as a species, and is the cause of so many societal problems. We have a duty to help the world get over their superstitious beliefs through discussion, theatric performance, and activism.
