[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, if you are serious, Satan and Satanism represent (some would say cause) humanity’s worst impulses. We’re not talking about cute witch covens or crunchy pagans. We’re talking about people who abuse their kids or parents, who steal from retirees, who are mass murderers, and so on.

Religious folks call it Satan; secular/atheists call it sociopathy ir psychopathy. But  they all find common ground in judging mass murders to be bad.[/quote]

I don't think there is any proof that mass murderers or child abusers are Satanists.  In fact, prisons are full of religious people. [/quote]

Whooosh… the sound of the point going over your head. In a number of theologies, not just Christianity, Satan is the guy who makes people do evil things. [/quote]

That's how movies portray Satan and how some people talk or preach, "the Devil made me do it," but that is not actually how the theology goes. At it's base, it is a theological choice between good and evil, and choosing Satan represents choosing evil. This is unrelated to those coopting the name and symbol for tax shelter purposes.[/quote]
