Hello all, this is post nine.
I just wanted to make this post for a few reminders and mistakes some people may be making.
1. Symbols:
Some theistic likes to wear certain objects, like inverted crosses or pentagrams or a goat skull etc.
The inverted cross is actually a very religious symbol. It is known as the petrine cross, or St. Peters cross.
It is said that St. Peter was crucified upside down, by the Origen of Alexandria He requested to be crucified upside down because he felt not worthy enough to be crucified in the same position as Jesus. The inverted cross of St Peter is a traditional Latin Cross.
Some people, like to tease theistic satanists because they think we do not know it means its in respects to st. peter. however, to theistic satanists we see this symbol as evil. We scoff at silly st. peter, for preforming such an act to Jesus Christ, God. (see my post about God being the wrong one, the hypocrite.) So therefore the cross has two meanings. 1. st peters crucifixion, a holy christian symbol that is not evil. 2. To theistic satanists, this can mean more than one thing to a believer. For me, it is pure evil. The mocking of st. peter, his foolishness. Also, the image of taking the traditional christan cross of jesus christ, and flipping it to mock him as well. Thats why you see some inverted crosses with jesus upside own.
so if anyone is making fun of you for wearing this, and trying to make you look stupid, dont let them. It has two meanings. I wear one myself.
Pentagrams.
These were used symbolically in ancient Greece and Babylonia Wiccans use this symbol as a symbol of faith., and often neopagan faiths incorporate them into jewelry. Its more a natural like meaning to it.
Christians once used this to symbolize the five wounds of Jesus.
Satanist (laveyan and theistic) present the pentagram with two points up, often in between two circles, with a goat head in the middle. (sigil of baphomet)
The Hebrew letters in each corner translate to Leviathan. An evil sea creature coming from Judaic mythology. Leviathan is one of the seven princes of hell, and also its gate keeper. Therefore, you accept Leviathan, you accept the gates of hell. You honor and worship Satan.
Something to remember. If you say you reject Christianity, you some what don't. For one thing, you cant reject the whole other side. You must accept the bible, how it went. You must understand that God and Jesus exists, all of it, to understand Theistic Satanism. You cannot have one without the other, or our Lord Satan would not exist.
We reject God, not Christianity. The light is the one that is evil.
So in a sense, we are evil Chrisitians. We worship the other side.
You must understand that to fully understand. You cannot reject the idea of god, you know he is there. But you hate him. You know his angels exist, you hate them all.
So you cannot accept one without the other.
So be careful with how you word things.

Good information. I knew about the inverted cross. Do you know why some people relate blood with satanism?
ReplyDeleteI think that blood and satanism gets tricky.
ReplyDeleteit could mean that alot of people relate it to bloodshed and murder. i however dont relate it as a negative thing, but I do not tie it to satanism.
Before you further muddle the meanings of the Sigil of Baphomet (a Church of Satan copyrighted image), read more before presenting such ambiguous, conflicting information:

Also read: http://www.churchofsatan.com/Pages/Pretenders.html
and consider its relevance to the inaccuracies of theistic "Satanism" (an attempt to reinvent the wheel) and LaVeyan Satanism (a clear redundancy).
Consult the Church of Satan if you are to use their copyrighted material and not distinctly refer to its source or to blur its meaning with the attachment of theistic "Satanism".
