What vague sense drove the first Ones,
to offer up such kinds of pain?
It would lead one to believe
that one needs a soul to save.
Truth is, that's not how it is,
and it's never been that way;
we live in an unlimited universe,
with plural paths we can pave.
It's our choices, and no others,
that allow benefits, or suffering,
to shower into our world for our sakes
We create the heaven we recive,
or the Hell that sours us down.
We give ourselves all the troubles,
and, i might add, all the breaks.
And so Master Satan set upon me,
write the Truth, as it were, His Way.
Give mankind back it's powers,
show how to have almost anything!
And i gladly walk through fire for Him,
and for my fellow human being,
to crash down the wallls of illusion,
and put an end to suffering!

I like this. I happen to know a few people who follow LaVeyan Satanism. I really like the honesty of your words, how your faith shines through. I agree that Satanism is a hugely misinterpreted religion and we definately need more people like you who are willing to step forward and correct such illusions.
Thank you for sharing this, and for taking the time to enter my contest,
Luck. -
Intriguing look at religion, the concept of a soul and our own need for the comfort of a supernatural entity. Honestly, I don't understand Satanism, but I can sense your passion and caring. A great read!
