Guest guest Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 Sorry, Ilah, for getting involved in these discussions and thereby perpetuating them. It's not often such things are discussed openly, so I must admit that I find it interesting to learn more about them and what they really mean. I'll try to quit commenting. I think I've said most of what I wanted to say on the subject, anyway, and learned even more than I wanted to know. I won't mind changing the subject. Let's talk politics instead! (Only joking!) Inger I anyone else getting disturbed by all this? I am starting to get very disturbed by the many of the recent messages lately. It is disturbing to sign onto and find that the heading for many of these posts is about Satan and Lucifer. In all fairness I will admit that I haven't actually read these, it just seems disturbing to see this topic dominating our discussions. Almost as disturbing is to see major fights about the problems people have with other aspie and autism groups. I am aware of some of these issues as they have been discussed before. There is more graphic detail about some of those issues but it is not really something I enjoy reading about. Some other interesting post and topics of discussion have been brought up but seem to be lost amoung the vast amount of posting on the two topics above. I think at this point you are starting to run the risk of scaring off new people and driving away some of the more sensitive members. I am not leaving but I think I may take a break from visiting for a few days and hope this cools down. (I may not post much, but I still read almost everyday and think about many of the posts.)

Guest guest Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 I am, becuase the complex of delusions seems to be near always especially in R/L the source of division.... It's highly inferior.. No woner world peace is impossible, let alone the goal of quality of life for those who have autism who are disabled. Meanwhile the more able one start a group and don't let the ones that can speak who are disabled speak freely.Here what is more important is how the satanist is member of such great teachings and believes in magic like on Harry potter on a flicker screen.I have never seen a satanist feed the hungry like churches do by organizing it, never seen them help the homeless..It's all a bunch of fictional nonsense.VISIGOTH@... wrote: In a message dated 3/19/2006 8:02:28 PM Eastern Standard Time, theturtlemoves@... writes: I think at this point you are starting to run the risk of scaring off new people and driving away some of the more sensitive members.

Well, I've seen at least one Satanist do it. As she pointed out, I could have seen others doing it, too, and just not known it: her faith believed in doing good deeds in secret, so (as she put it) " when we show up for work at a soup kitchen we don't wear 'KISS ME, I'M A SATANIST' buttons.

Guest guest Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 Certainly not to the extent that christian I have seen do so. Never Never have I seen a group of satanist gather toger and do so, it is much less. PErhaps it is said to be secret doers of good so people just think that, while there is little evidence to it, least in the bulk of deeds evident with christians. Satanism is bad, just the way it is. Does not make the person bad, just misguided. What she had done is taken my voice away by censoring me just like satanism did with A.F.F by taking my voice away from there. So if and when in control least online with the satanic cult A.F.F they will be one way and do another. However as I said it is all fictionalized and delusion based, there is hardly logic or rationalism to it. > > > > I have never seen a satanist feed the hungry like churches do by organizing >it, never seen them help the homeless. > > Well, I've seen at least one Satanist do it.

Well, just how far *would* a group of Satanists get, if they publicly identified themselves as Satanists when they went off to volunteer in a nursing home, or whatever? Don't the Christians also talk about doing good deeds in secret? In my (limited) experience, though, the ones who *did* do good deeds made a lot of public noise about it. The Satanist grad-student mom whom I knew, I caught by accident doing one of her good deeds. (I'd already known her religion, but I hadn't known what she did because of it.)

Guest guest Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 A good deed is a good deed belief or not, I've discovered with christains it is just what they do, or most of them. They gather to do such things. Community outreach and so on.. The question is, why be a satanist? To me belief fundimentally of the supernatural is the same, it is delusion. > > Re: > > > Certainly not to the extent that christian I have seen do so.

Guest guest Posted March 20, 2006 Report Share Posted March 20, 2006 Re: > The question is, why be a satanist? From what my Satanist acquaintance told me, she believed in Satanism for the same reason that most people believe whatever religion they believe: their parents raised them to believe in it.
