9 – Satanism: Sinister or Selfish?

Wendy Lynn Staats • November 22, 2014

Very few things seem as antithetical to basic humanity than being in league with the Devil. We’re so used to the idea of a benevolent monotheistic God in our conception of modern religion (How many times have you heard the expression, God is Love?) that the idea of wanting to glorify His opponent seems insane. We’d like to think that we’re capable of understanding people’s motivations and their processes. Why would someone ever knowingly do something evil? Not just selfish or misguided or dumb, put purely evil? Like a Satanist. It doesn’t make sense that people would worship the Devil, does it?

Featured Song: The Sun King

Eternal and breathtaking,

given by divine right,

I am the state in all her glory,

And I’m the essence of this life.

The center of the universe,

I stand divine, I stand alone.

Love me like no one else,

I stand divine, I stand alone.

God-given, beatified,

I am the source, I am the seed.

Blessed by heaven to satisfy,

all your hopes and all your needs.

Perpetual engine, of the ascension.

a jealous tyrant of your affection,

I am the fulcrum, you are the lever,

I am the spark that goes on forever.

The center of the universe,

I stand divine, I stand alone.

Love me like no one else,

I stand divine, I stand alone.

I am your brother.

I am your mother,

I am your lover.

I am the only thing you need.

Near or far,

you’re part of me.

Wherever you are,

you’re still inside of me.

Perpetual engine, of the ascension.

a jealous tyrant of your affection,

I am the fulcrum, you are the lever,

I am the spark that goes on forever.

The center of the universe,

I stand divine, I stand alone.

Love me like no one else,

I stand divine, I stand alone.
