How long could you maintain your sanity if you were forced to watch I Am Poppy over and over again?

Satanic imagery is edgy and edgy stupidly makes money sadly, as for the imagery itself? I dont know, Doom has satanic imagery all over it, but thats usually because you are actually running and gunning in hell itself or areas it controls, but I dont put much stock in Satanic imagery or the "power" of Satan, as he is totally powerless in any reality.

Even people who claim to follow him are just doing it to be edgy and different.
But I guess it depends on how religious you are and how much stock you put into such things.

That reminds me.

I just ordered this, in prep for the upcoming holiday season, and my mother's stupid christmas party.

You should work for the UAC :D

+1 to you, sir. Outstanding post.

UnDead Aardvark Council?

And one note on the official Church of Satan, and I realize that isn't exactly what we are talking about here, but they deserve a word here in their defense so as not to be continually associated with the nut job in his parents basement cutting open the family cat over a chalk drawn pentagram in hopes of becoming immortal.

The actual official Satanic Church doesn't worship Satan. They were established as a kind of means of rallying against the pretensions and restrictions laid down by organized religion. Their goal was and is, at least in their charter, to explore the pleasure principle both physically and mentally.

On top of that, they have a great sense of humor.

A few years ago when the WBC started going around doing Gay Conversion Therapy at the graves of dead homosexuals (NO I'M NOT MAKING THAT UP) they started going around to the grave sites of dead WBC members and doing Heterosexual Conversion Therapy. XD They knew it was all a bunch of hogwash, but they also knew it would upset and offend the WBC, which it did, and more power to them! :D

People have been attracted to occult power for thousands of years, but it's something that takes a very long time to gain mastery over and only a few have that sort of patience and dedication. And the secrets are closely guarded, for the most part.

Imagery is merely a tool for focusing the mind, but Egyptian symbolism has a long tradition. It's true that the vast majority of people who dabble in these arts know practically nothing about the true nature of what they're doing, and those who lure such people into them are seeking slaves, and as you certainly know, slavery also has a very long tradition.

Union Aerospace Corp. the megacorp from the DOOM series that in essence unleashed hell upon a unsuspecting universe.
Perhaps, but I dont give the occult too much power, but I guess we diverge on that.

see my edit/add on
not that applies, I just want to make sure it gets pointed out.

I know the diff between religious satanism and levayian satanism, infact it was that who I was referring too as just doing it to be "edgy" I wanted to add satire but didnt.

If you gain mastery in something like tai chi, you'll develop an understanding of the nature of energy. The occult focuses on psychic energy, whereas tai chi and similar arts focus on life energy. But at bottom, we're talking about energy, which in the hands of knowledgeable people, is power.

Forgot to mention spiritual energy, which is also important to those seeking power *and* those seeking enlightenment. I'll also say that enlightenment, simply put, is the expansion of consciousness.

Someday we need to have a discussion on spirituality.
but yeah in general I agree.

No, I'm sorry I didn't pick up on it and I should have known you were aware. I know you well enough to realize you are way smarter than I was giving you credit for, and for that I apologize.

I would point out that a very strong case can be made that organized religion has Satanic origins.

Once you've seen Lady Baby, you've seen them all.
