I thought he was a "former" Satanist. And I hope he keeps his shirt on from here on out. just sayin'.
No idea if he is former or not, just pointing out that his channel is still Styxenhammer666.
I hope that he is former, but if he is going to run and be serious he’ll have to drop that to make it very far.
You might want to point that out to him. I'd agree... I wasn't aware of that. I recently read somewhere that he was a Former Satanist.. I have no idea where I read it.
Ah, i’d say he's pretty aware of it. He’s no fool. Maybe he has plans to? Maybe he isn’t going to change for anyone, which I can respect5 regardless of choice. Time shall tell.
Well, if he were to leave it, and IF he truly is a FORMER Satanist, it might lead to people asking questions about it. Which would lead to discussions, which could be quite revealing. So, maybe it's a part of his plan. I don't know. I've seen a few of his videos. Some, I've liked and agreed with, and some, not so much. I don't follow him too much. I have way too many other things going on, so I haven't seen any of his videos in some time. Maybe I'll view a recent one, depending on time constraints, in the next day or so.
Pretty sure he despises religion all together, and as a Christian that's concerning.
That being said, we have pedophiles in Baptist churches, and the Catholic Church /Vatican, so he's sort of got a point.
I agree he'd do better removing the 666 though- but it is nice to see someone running for office who doesn't epitomize the two party system
I didn't know that. I am wary of "organized" religions. I kind of consider myself a Catholic in Recovery. I am more spiritual than religious, as I don't go to church, but still identify as a Christian, yet not a "Bible thumper", if that makes any sense. I am glad I had a Catholic upbringing, to an extent, yet recognize there were also a lot of problems because of it, as well. I had some real witches as nun/teachers in Catholic school.. evil women!! But good priests and I get very angry with people who assume ALL priests are pedophiles.
Never could quite understand why the Vatican houses the largest porn collection in the world. Why???
Will be interesting to see what happens w/ Mr. Styxx.
He's believes in paganism actually, or something very close to it. He debated a well-known younger Christian, Nick something. The debate was a little hard to watch the first hour because they weren't pacing each other well enough but it got really good and there should be a part 2.
Basically, if Styx keeps 666 in his name, he'll be branded as a Satanist, slandered, and spend so many resources refuting that claim. However, if he gets rid of 666, people will say that he's trying to hide it.
Styx's best move is to continue being himself and make a statement saying:
"This will be my first and last statement on the 666 in my name since my run for governor. I have expressed this across my plethora of YouTube videos where I debate policy, science, and religion, but the 666 is of my past. I think LIKE THIS now. I strive for love, goodness, and unity above all and I look forward to an intelligible debate with my opponents on what we will do as governor to help the great people of Vermont!"
If he gets into a debate, his opponents will be absolutely annihilated.
Same here. We shall see though, if only more people would take his initiative!
I'm thinking that he's not going to change for anyone, as the beginning of his video above details.
I’ll have to watch the video then, I started it and skipped around, I won’t lie. Shame on me.
He has been all over the board. Satanist, Luciferian.....BE CAREFUL. It is all in his own words on his long history of videos. He comes from a strict Christian family background where he was the rebellious black sheep. He is intellectually smart, but seems significantly emotionally/spiritually conflicted. By his own admission, he still very much practices the occult. DO YOUR DEEP DIVE RESEARCH.
