SATAN, SATAN, SATAN; run fluffy bunnies, run! HAHAHAHAHA…you're scared because you think it's an xtian invention, that's hilarious! :) (was: Re: RRosen: Feminist Reworkings…)

Question:

: <sigh  LaVey just HAD to go and pick a confusing and arousing name… ; *grin* Kind of like Gardner and the word witch?; (Sorry, couldn’t resist:) Renee Rosen                                   "Das Leben beginnt Goddess in Training                            Die Energie geht weiter, Astrud and Astrudel on irc                     wohin man sich auch wendet." http://www.cjnetworks.com/~lilitu                         –Nina Hagen

Response:

<grin  Good answer.  Part of the point (which Octinomos, our favourite alt.magick troll, bungled) is that most (American) Satanists don’t believe in what you refer to as "deific personifications of evil" either.  "Satan" tends to mean something else entirely. And another part of the point is that Satan doesn’t necessarily have anything to do with Christianity. <sigh  LaVey just HAD to go and pick a confusing and arousing name… ;

hey, everyone’s got to pay the rent. josh

[posted and cc'd] here’s a question: why does it frighten you that Satan may exist independent of xtianity? what seems to be the difficulty? please help me to understand… Hmmm…I didn’t see the original post to which you’re replying, but I have to say that since I don’t believe in deific personifications of evil (like Satan), I have to say nothing about the idea of him frightens me.  I wish I could be more help.
