One of the things Satanists do best is celebrate. And it's time for me to do a little dance...  In early July, I sent the Church of Satan a check and applied for membership. I've heard nothing from the CoS since. And as of today, I still haven't. But my check just cleared! Maybe this is a silly thing to celebrate, but it is significant to me. I've felt tremendous satisfaction since I mailed the application. It was an act of personal fidelity with who and what I have been and forever will be. When my red card arrives, I'll be thrilled. But I have much to celebrate already. It's time to dance. Join me if you like... Hail Satan!

I remember waiting for the mail daily until my card arrived, and what a joyous day it was when it did arrive. You will have to pratice patience however, it does take a while.

Congratulations my friend. I will join you in that pre-celebratory dance.  I look forward to continuing our discussions in a more public less public arena. I can’t wait for your contributions down below.

Ah yes, there is a basement...
...I wonder...
Where is this Lake of Fire that I often hear Christians recount with the spark of Satan gleaming in their eyes? As a citizen of Hell, I've looked everywhere, except for the basement, of course. Is that where it is? Is this where we keep it? If so, should I bring along a pair of trunks, or do we swim naked??? 
Thank you to all who celebrate my little triumph. I’m still dancing...and I may never stop. If the gates to the nether realm of Hell open for me, I’ll proudly enter. I will be the devil hoisting a silver chalice, offering a toast to the alien elite who preceded me.
Hail Satan!

I am getting closer and closer to being ready to join the Church of Satan. I admit that lately I've had a few nights when I cried myself to sleep because I truly want it to be a part of my life, and I feel like there is something missing from my life without it. Right now is not a good time for me to join just yet, but I will make it happen for myself. When I hold my card in my hands for the first time, I am sure it will be one of the best moments in my life, like getting the first kiss or something. A true congradulations to you, DarkWater!!!!!!!!!

Are you serious, sarcastic, or looking for sympathy?

Will a "Hail Darkwater" be in order here?  and some jigging...  As far as my reading goes into "The Satanic Bible" * I find myself drawn to applying for membership. I don't cry myself to sleep about it (???), I'm more worried about the repercussions of association if anything. (The US is considered a free union of nations. Isreal isn't quite free as far as religion goes. so are the minds of the herds) Anyway, I think I will be sharing this enthusiasm in the not so near future. for now, I can only envy you.  *Note: Second reading + languistic aid.

What's poetic about it?
