You people come here to "learn," to "debate," to "inquire," to find out what's "in it for you" with regards to membership, and yet you do so in a puerile, demanding, and passive-aggressive manner. Then, when members of hierarchy don't provide the putative answers you seek, the tantrums and reproach begin. Whence comes this assumption that something is owed to you?

Why should anyone here bear the responsibility of evincing to you our motivations, friendships, secrets, or the inherent value in joining our ranks?
The Church of Satan does not serve as a kith for parasites.

A few words of advice:

Honest misunderstanding is a forgivable part of incipience, but repeated tolerance (especially when rejoined by provocation) quickly becomes tiresome.

Oh man all these sheep, what is one to do, I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE???. Maybe have some Lamb chops for dinner that evening?
Hum smells like basic human slave mentality currently, which makes up a rather large portion of the masses. Only one who is a sheep is even concerned about other sheep, frankly plenty of sheep make for easy pickins. Geez what are you a door mat, always being walked on?

Frankly I am really indifferent towards most people in society, although I keep my eye open regarding the stupid and dangerous ones when warranted. As far as I can see Satanism has no downsides at all, Satanism only provides a clear path for one to do what is best for the individual who truly is a Satanists. Though the posts you have made recently reveals a rather clear view.
