• Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

Can anyone explain the temple of satan vs being a devil worshiper? I’m not really understanding the difference…

I'm not certain what you're really asking, but if you mean the church of Satan - the late Anton Lavey's church - they don't believe in a traditional "Satan". They claim Satan is not a real being, but an idea, the idea of rebelling against societal norms, western Christian values and so forth. At least that's their public persona. But if you listen to the words of members like Sammy Davis Jr et al, they clearly expressed a belief in Satan being an actual, active being.

Devil worshipers come in all varieties, from those who believe he is indeed the evil being described in the bible, to luciferians, who believe Satan is an equal to the Judeo/Christian God, Satan being the god who freed man, gives man free choice, and the Judeo/Christian God is a hateful bitter god who hates and restricts mankind.
 
Ok ok ok…so reason I ask, is bc recently a neighbor of mine who I’m tight with told me that his neighbors, who’s boy my son was playing with for a while, are temple of satan…and that they had a sticker on their car.I had to see for myself. So I went over there one night after everyone has gone in and took this photo:

I’m trying to figure out, are they satanists who partake in drinking babies’ blood and are into blood orgies and shit? Or are they just using him as a figure head and don’t believe in anything.
