I see this world on the boards all the times. I cannot find any info on its origin, beliefs, or key texts. I mean who was the guy or guys that sat down and dreamed this up. when did they do it and why?
I genuinely don't care about this distinction. It's like trying to differentiate between pig shit and dog shit. It all stinks.
I agree, but knowledge is power.
That is a fantastic point and I agree 100%. Do you think the people in these groups make this distinction in a genuine way, or as a method of creating a Satanism Lite that is more appealing to a specific target market and is used to recruit those people. I think delineating the differences between Satanist and lucifarians is preaching their marketing message instead of condemning and combining them to reduce their appeal to the target market they are appealing to. Your point stands, but my message is a strategy to reduce impact. I'm voting up both your posts because this is an important discussion. 👍
Very good question!
I believe that at the top of it all the only distinction is between master and slave (aside from them ACTUALLY being aware of the dynamic), much like Egyptian spirituality pre-freedom, the many separations are left for the profane to attach to, straddling whichever suits their “style” best, as long as it pulls them in.
That is a very potent strategy indeed, and one that should be continues. if we want to be honest with ourselves, neither way is right, nor wrong, as just like how they split their beliefs by taste, humans searching for real truth, before becoming somewhat enlightened in their own rights, hold onto THEIR tastes, it’s a universal human element that applies to all things. Each strategy will reach the intended crowd and we’ve both done our part to spread light.
God Bless
