The Church of Satan takes no position on any political ideology, period.

I'm not sure if this has been posted before, so I must ask. How does the CoS feel about racism? I.E. - White Nationalism, Nazis, etc. Any help would be great appreciated as I am trying to clear a discussion up. Thank you. The Church of Satan recognises excellence on the basis of individual merit, regardless of race or creed and rejects the notion of egalitarian equality, preferring instead to rely on natural stratification as a barometer. The CoS itself operates on the basis of a meritocracy.

Magus Peter Gilmore: "...Satanism is an individualist philosophy; racism is a collectivist ideology - they aren’t compatible. Besides, all I’d need to do is bring such a person into a room filled with the very diverse collection of people from many of the world’s nations and ethnicities who belong to us and they’d see what a pointless accusation they are making." http://www.satanosphere.com/story/2001/9/7/121041/3661

The CoS itself operates on the basis of a meritocracy. It has been pointed out to me that my above statement is erronous in so much as that we are discriminatory in regards to creed. It is probably a matter of semantics but what I meant was, in specific regard to the question, is that we are able to recognise greatness regardless. If a brain surgeon happens to be a black christian neither his creed nor his ethnicity changes the fact that he does a great service of saving lives.

Shouldn't we be "relying" on that in the first place? Whether or not general trait differences according to race come into play or not, Satanism will ALWAYS be about the individual. Racism should be a no brainer to anyone who has read The Satanic Bible or The Satanic Scriptures; there is no place for it, period. If a brain surgeon happens to be a black christian neither his creed nor his ethnicity changes the fact that he does a great service of saving lives.
This quote sums it up pretty damn well, there is no room for further conjecture. Nothing tricky about it, either; there is no place for racism of any kind, end of story. Slight ethnic differences have no bearing and are otherwise nitpicking. EDIT: Not meant as much to counteract your post SPECIFICALLY, just a general response to this tired question. You are right that OTHER PEOPLE will try and use trait differences to support their bigoted views, but a Satanist certainly would not. (He wouldn't look at it like that in the FIRST place.)

Thank you all for your input. You can read some further clarification on this subject over on this thread. Though I think some folks here answered it pretty clearly.

Unfortunately, bleeding-heart liberal organizations that dominate most of politics would (and have known to historically) pounce on the idea of a study showing any difference in traits between different races. That's because they secretly feel that blacks are naturally stupid, which is reason #666 why liberals are totally insulting people.
